The striker will miss the rest of the current campaign through a knee injury sustained when Kevin Nolan decided to use his leg as a dance mat during the 0-0 daw at Newcastle.
It was a shithouse tackle of such magnatude that even Steven Gerrard, the Premier League's premier exponent of the over the top challenge, would've winced when he saw it.
Anichebe underwent a scan yesterday but, as the results we're inconclusive, he will have to undergo exploratory surgery at a later date.
But, either way, the diagnosis is simply going to be that his knee's fucked!
And so the Blues are without yet another striker for the rest of the season whilst Nolan has just one more match to sit out before he strolls back into the Newcastle team.
That'll learn him eh?!
