Daryl Janmaat breaks fingers after punching wall during Newcastle defeat

Just when you think things couldn't possibly get any more absurd at Newcastle, Daryl Janmaat managed to cause himself an injury following his side's dismal 3-0 defeat against Southampton on Saturday afternoon.

Janmaat was forced to leave the pitch in the first half after tweaking a hamstring, but it was a bizarre dressing room incident that saw the Dutch full-back leave the stadium in a sling after the game.

According to the Chronicle, Janmaat was so livid that he punched a wall, breaking two fingers in the process.

That said, the paper also report that neither of his injuries -- the hamstring or the hand -- are expected to rule him out of next weekend's do-or-die match against Swansea.
