Jagielka set for crunch clash

Sheffield United manager Neil Warnock expects defender Phil Jagielka to be fit for tomorrow’s vital Barclays Premiership clash with fellow strugglers West Ham after overcoming a groin injury.

Forwards Christian Nade (twisted ankle) and Danny Webber (foot) are doubts, although Warnock is quietly confident both could play some part at Bramall Lane.

Rob Hulse is out for the rest of the season with a broken leg and Warnock is weighing up whether to give January signing Luton Shelton a chance over the remaining six games.

Provisional squad: Kenny, Davis, Jagielka, Kozluk, Lucketti, Kilgallon, Armstrong, Morgan, A Quinn, S Quinn, Fathi, Tonge, Montgomery, Leigertwood, Stead, Nade, Kazim-Richards, Geary, Gillespie, Bromby, Webber, Shelton.
