Watford expect Heidar Helguson to miss games against Coventry City and Cardiff CitySaturday 26th September 2009 Heidar Helguson is expected to miss the Hornets next two league games with the calf injury he picked up against Leicester City last week. Helguson had an MRI scan on Wednesday and Watford manager Malky Mackay had hoped the striker could have played during today's 1-1 draw with Reading, but the Scot has confirmed the 32-year-old will have another scan on Monday. Mackay said: “We didn't like the reaction we saw this morning and that being the case there will be another scan done on him, so I doubt there will be any chance of Heidar playing this week. www.watfordobserver.co.uk/sport/localsport/4651277.Heidar_to_miss_next_two_games/

So assuming this is the final word, not as serious as could have been. Out for a couple of weeks - which by Helguson standards is just like taking a breather! Good luck to him!Watford Official Site - TRIO SET TO MISS OUT Mon 28 Sep 2009 WATFORD boss Malky Mackay looks set to be without three first-team players once more tomorrow (Tuesday) evening when Coventry City visit Vicarage Road. Speaking this afternoon, the gaffer updated www.watfordfc.com on the latest situation from the treatment room at London Colney. Loanee Heidar Helguson will not be involved in either of Watford's games this week and with an international break looming, that provides the Icelandic striker with further time to prove his fitness before the Hornets' trip north to face Middlesbrough on Saturday 17 October.
Helguson had a further scan on his injured calf this morning. Mackay said: "We've spoken to Heidar and the specialist since then and he has torn his calf muscle, so he's going to be out for a couple of weeks."... www.watfordfc.com/page/NewsDetail/0,,10400~1811375,00.html

Poor Heidar. He gives his all,scores two goals and then more damages. Took a bit longer here and got three I think then in and out and lost scoring ability. Hes had a lot of surgery, wonder if he can ever come back in a reliable way. For his sake I hope so,even though the team is in our division. Lot of huamanity there for Paladini who cared about him,over the possibility it could affect our league position,even paying for him for a time.
