MICHAEL Turner suffered a hamstring injury during Southend United’s 2-0 defeat at Portsmouth this afternoon.

Turner was taken off at half-time at Fratton Park.

But Blues boss Chris Powell is unsure how serious the injury setback is at this stage.

“It was Michael’s third game in a week but hopefully it’s not that bad,” said Powell.

“The change was enforced but there would have been changes anyway.”

The injury compounded a miserable afternoon for Turner who also scored an own goal to put Portsmouth in front.
