will be sidelined for eight weeks after tearing a hamstring but Bruce sees no reason to change his team’s playing style.

"I don't think the approach is going to be any different. We've decided this is the way forward for us, so we'll keep the same thing we've been trying to achieve."

Asked about his feelings about Wilson’s injury, Bruce responded:

"It hasn't been great, I have to tell you. In that respect, we've been blighted with injury and illness, unfortunately.

"When I see a big team like Tottenham, how reliant they are on somebody like [Harry] Kane, then of course you do need your big players, especially at the top end of the pitch and unfortunately, we've been dealt another blow.

"Let's hope we can cope with it, let's hope somebody can step up to the mark. We have certainly got players who are capable, let's hope they can grasp it.

"It's the one thing we can't change, it is what it is and we have to have somebody now who can step up.

"They will be hard shoes to fill because of the impact Callum has had. To have 10 goals in a team which is halfway in the bottom half of the division is a wonderful return."
