Michael Dawson faces lengthy injury layoff

Harry Redknapp suggests that the defender could be out for the season.

Tottenham Hotspur's Michael Dawson could be out for the rest of the season after being stretchered off during this evening's FA Cup tie.

The defender was taken to hospital after sustaining an ankle injury in the 3-1 fifth-round replay victory over Stevenage.

"Michael Dawson looks like he's got a really bad injury, which is a real blow for Michael," Spurs manager Harry Redknapp told ESPN. "It's long-term for sure."

Aaron Lennon also picked up a hamstring tweak during the game, and was substituted during the first half.

"Every time he plays he seems to do his hamstring," Redknapp added.

Tottenham progressed to the quarter-finals of the competition - where they will face Bolton Wanderers - with a brace from Jermain Defoe and an Emmanuel Adebayor penalty.
