Chris Eagles suffered nothing more than a twisted ankle during Burnley's thrilling win at QPR.

The summer signing from Manchester United was stretchered off early in the second half.

But manager Owen Coyle later revealed the striker was not as bad as first feared.

He said: "Initially my feeling was that Chris had done his hamstring, but I think what's happened is that he's turned his ankle, so hopefully it won't be too long until he's back.

"Young kids are generally quick healers, and I know he's desperate to keep his place in the team, because he knows the quality that's waiting there to get back in.

"He had to be patient himself when he was out but he is showing undoubted quality, and it's terrific for us to have."

More to come.
