Stoke City manager Tony Pulis is waiting to learn the extent of the Achilles tendon injury suffered by Ricardo Fuller in the 1-1 draw at Aston Villa.<\/p>\n

Fuller was introduced as a 75th minute substitute at Villa Park, but the striker was stretchered off before the full-time whistle.<\/span><\/p>\n

With Stoke having an FA Cup final on the horizon, there are fears Fuller will not be fit for the Wembley encounter with Manchester City.<\/span><\/p>\n

“It’s his Achilles that he has damaged and, although it is too early to say, it does not look too good,” said Pulis.<\/span><\/p>\n

“It is a big blow to us because he is a game changer who can come on and do special things.<\/span><\/p>\n

“It is a big blow to us because he is a game changer who can come on and do special things.”
Tony Pulis on Ricardo Fuller<\/em> Quotes of the week<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

“Even in the short time that he was on the pitch today, he created three or four opportunities out of nothing. That is Ric for you.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Delighted with point<\/span><\/h4>\n

Kenwyne Jones’ header had given Stoke the lead before Darren Bent’s goal just before half-time drew Villa level.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pulis added: “The worst thing that happened to us was half-time. We looked bright in the first 40 minutes and, but for an unbelievable save from Friedel, we might have been further in front at that stage.<\/span><\/p>\n

“But you only have to give Bent half a chance and he punishes you, and at half-time, I could see one or two were a bit jaded when we got in the dressing room at half-time.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We couldn’t get going after the break and it was really just a matter of trying to stay solid so that we hung in there.<\/span><\/p>\n

“I am delighted with the point because Villa have been on a good run and this was always going to be a tough game.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Our brief over the past three years has been to stay in this League and we still need points to ensure that is the case.<\/span><\/p>\n

“It has been quite remarkable what we have achieved in reaching the FA Cup final, but there is no danger of us letting that affect our main priority, and I think that showed in the way we performed in the first half today.”<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
