Liverpool defender Martin Kelly admitted his relief after his latest injury proved not to be too serious.
The right-back lasted just half-an-hour of the 3-1 win over Bolton before he had to limp off with a hamstring injury.
The 21-year-old missed the final three months of last season with a torn hamstring and feared he may have to endure a similar lay-off.
But he told the official Liverpool website: "We had a scan and it was good news - it was only a slight strain. I'll build up training this week.
"I could have maybe played on but it was important to get it right, with the history of hamstring trouble I had last season. I've done quite a lot of work over the last six months. Touch wood this will be the last.
"It's all part of football. You're going to get injuries. This is just a slight injury - no more than two weeks. It should be fine after that, injuries won't trouble me. It's just an unlucky time in the game for me."
