van der Vaart faces month on sidelines
Tottenham midfielder Rafael van der Vaart will be missing for at least a month after picking up a hamstring injury in Spurs' last game against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
The Dutchman will definitely miss the games against both Norwich and Swansea before the turn of the year, and is also expected to be missing for another two weeks after that.
The attacking midfielder limped off at half time against the Blues, and had to be replaced.
Harry Redknapp confirmed in an interview that the player will be missing for both of the next two games before the New Year.
