Ahead of Sunday’s Scottish Cup Quarter Final against Partick Thistle the Dons have a number of injury concerns. The manager gave an update on the casualty list during his post-match media conference on Tuesday night:

“Mark Reynolds was injured (and came off at half time). He has been struggling a bit with a groin problem and we think it may have developed into a hernia so we think Mark will be out for about four weeks.

“And Ryan Jack, his injury it was down to the surface. It was his ankle. That is a real worry as well.

“I expect both players to be out for a period of time.

“It has been a sore night for us. We have lost the game and have had a couple of injuries to key players which is going to keep them out.

“We are hopeful Jonny Hayes (who missed the game) won’t be out for too long but I think he will miss Sunday. Hopefully we might get Jayden back for Sunday because all of a sudden, the squad is really stretched.”
