'If It's Football, It's Vital'

Expected to be fit

When a player suffers injury on the eve of a new season it's always a worry, and this is what happened to Pim Balkestein during the week.


The summer arrival, signing a permanent contract this summer, was injured during AFC Wimbledon's defeat against Portsmouth and limped away from the game with an injury problem.


Balkestein, as he told London24, isn't concerned about his fitness though as he feels its just "a stiff ankle" as his body "gets used to playing games again after two to three months off" but being fit for the Capital One Cup tie with Stevenage this week is something that he expects will be possible.


The Dons' chances of beating their league one opponents would improve if Balkestein can be fit so fingers crossed it's nothing more than this "stiff ankle" he proclaims.
