Bournemouth's Wilson suffers knee injury vs. Stoke; Howe says 'it doesn't look good'
AFC Bournemouth is without its top scorer.
The opening minutes of Saturday's fixture between Stoke City and Bournemouth saw Philipp Wollscheid and Callum Wilson collide, resulting in a break in play as the latter required treatment for a knee injury.
Although Wilson returned, it wasn't long before he went down again and hit the floor in frustration before being stretchered off.

Wilson, who has already tallied five goals this season, was replaced by Glenn Murray, and manager Eddie Howe provided a bleak update on the injury after the final whistle.
