Johnson reveals shoulder pain
// A bit of a hack but it works// The article snippet is wrapped onto a second line, even when #article-sub is emptyif( $("div#article-sub").children().length == 0 ) {$("div#article-sub").remove();} Fulham striker Andy Johnson admits he is likely to be suffering pain in his shoulder for the rest of the season.[LNB] Johnson dislocated his shoulder in the Europa League clash with Amkar Perm in August and was initially expected to be sidelined for eight weeks.[LNB]He returned to first-team duty after three weeks, but Johnson concedes it is likely to be several months before he is free from pain.[LNB]"It's a permanent injury," said Johnson. "I've done as much damage as you can do by snapping all six ligaments.[LNB]"I just need to get used to the pain as it's still giving me a bit of stick. You can feel it in games.[LNB]"It's not a problem if I'm chasing the ball, but if I go shoulder to shoulder with someone and I land on it then it's very sore, for up to 15 minutes.[LNB]"Joseph Yobo came into the back of me when we played Everton a couple of weeks ago and it was painful for five or six days afterwards.[LNB]"You might see me holding it in games, but that's how it is now. I think within the next three or four months it will settle down and by next season it will be pain-free.[LNB]"It's just a case of getting through that period."[LNB]
