Wolves skipper Johnson confident of overcoming injury

Wolves captain Roger Johnson believes he will be back to take on Tottenham this weekend.

The centre-back landed awkwardly on his right ankle in his side's 0-0 FA Cup draw with former club Birmingham City on the weekend but feels he will be right for the Premier League trip to White Hart Lane this Saturday.

"I don't know if I'll be out for long," he told the club's official website.

"I'll try and play next week and we'll just have to see how it goes this week with the physio.

"I expect I'll be seeing a lot of him and then train maybe Thursday or Friday."
