Tottenham Hotspur striker Jermain Defoe believes that Gareth Bale's injury is "a massive blow" for them.
The Welsh winger suffered a hamstring injury during Spurs' 3-0 away win against Fulham in the Premier League and could be sidelined for two weeks.
"Obviously Gaz (Gareth Bale) is a massive blow for the team," Defoe told Absolute Radio's Rock 'n' Roll Football with Ian Wright.
"The way he plays you can't really replace a player like that, but at the same time I think someone else can come in and do a job for the team.
"Luckily enough we've got a strong squad, we've got some great players, players that can come in and players that can play out of position, players that can adapt and do a job for the team."
Defoe scored twice in Tottenham's 3-0 win at Craven Cottage on Saturday.
