BOJINOV'S BAD BREAK

Following on from City’s 4-2 opening day defeat at the hands of Aston Villa, it has been confirmed that Valeri Bojinov has snapped his Achilles tendon and will be out for a minimum of six months. Bojinov, who has recently just returned from a cruciate knee injury and who netted against AC Milan, was widely tipped to be one of City’s top strikers during the 2008/09 campaign. He will now instead face another frustrating period on the sidelines as City’s woes continue.
