This latest setback for Manager, Eddie Howe is his third already this season as fullback, Tyron Mings, has already been ruled out for the rest of this season after he injured his anterior and medial ligaments of his knee. Then the Ivorian, Max Gradel, also suffered a similar knee injury while playing in the game against Leicester in August. Gradel will be out for the rest of 2015.
