Everton striker Louis Saha fears his latest injury setback has brought his season to a premature conclusion.\n<\/p>\n

The Frenchman damaged his ankle during the Toffees’ 2-1 victory over former employers Fulham on Saturday, forcing him to be stretchered from the field.<\/p>\n

It was hoped that the problem was not as bad as first feared, allowing Saha to return to the first-team fold in the near future.<\/p>\n

However, it now appears that the 32-year-old will be sidelined until at least the summer.<\/p>\n

Saha has admitted as much, revealing that he is not expecting to feature again until the 2011\/12 campaign gets underway.<\/p>\n

“I’m on crutches, I am not well,” he said in the Liverpool Daily Post<\/i>.<\/p>\n

“Am I going to be out for days, weeks or months? I do not know, but it will be difficult to play again by the end of the season.<\/p>\n

Fed up<\/h4>\n

“I’m getting fed up because the injuries always happen when I am trying to start something. <\/p>\n

“I am someone who always tries to think positively. If I thought about these problems all the time, it would drive me crazy.”<\/p>\n

Saha has already spent two months on the treatment table this season, with a calf injury picked up while away on international duty in September keeping him out of action.<\/p>\n

He admits he is growing frustrated at the regular setbacks, with niggling knocks having followed him around.<\/p>\n

Saha added: “This year was very frustrating. I did all the physical preparation, and I hurt myself in the process. For a footballer, there’s nothing harder.<\/p>\n

“Then I come back well in January and now this new injury happens. It’s difficult mentally, and that’s what makes me proud. Not everyone can come back as I did every time. I still have a lot to give.<\/p>\n

“There were many moments where I wanted to drop everything, especially when I was at Manchester United. Fortunately I am surrounded by people that help me see the bright side of life because at one time, I was fed up.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
