Tommy Miller today revealed his fears over a mystery back injury which could hamper his progress at Ipswich Town.
The Blues midfielder, with his team-mates in Luxembourg ahead of their UEFA Cup clash against Avenir Beggen, has been in discomfort since hobbling away from last month's pre-season friendly at Brentford.
He hopes to play some part in tonight's qualifying round first leg showdown, but admitted to the Evening Gazette: "This injury is really bugging me at the moment.
"I can't seem to shake it off. Just when it seems to have disappeared, I get this pain in the lower half of my back.
"It can be very sore and the problem's really nagging in the back of my mind. I just want to concentrate on playing football.
"I've seen our physio and also the club's back specialist to see if they can help.
"Hopefully it won't be a long-term problem but I can't help but worry."
