Newcastle United goalkeeper Tim Krul is facing monthly on the sidelines along with his ankle injury. The 24-year-old Holland international visited a specialist earlier this week after picking right on up the problem in the Europa League match against Metalist Kharkiv. Director Alan Pardew said: "His foot continues to be slightly bloated. We think he'll be out for a four weeks, five weeks, but we are hoping for less than that." With seasoned Steve Harper also wounded, Rob Elliot was handed his Premier League debut in the 4-2 make an impression on Southampton, and he will carry on in purpose at Swansea this week-end. Fabricio Coloccini, nevertheless, is really a question for the trip to south Wales with a right back injury he picked up against Southampton. Pardew said: "I think he is doubtful but there's the opportunity he could play. He's some body now who we've got great options for if he's hurt, and we did not have that at all till Mapou (Yanga-Mbiwa) came. "It is unlikely for Coloccini, I do believe, for Swansea and, in the event that you had taken him and Tim from the group six weeks before we would not have a chance of winning this game. "But, as it has become, we are another proposition. More strength has been got much by us and obviously we've got an opportunity of winning without them."
