West Ham boss Alan Curbishley says youngsters James Tomkins, Jack Collison and Freddie Sears are all in his thoughts.

"We are really pleased with Freddie - the last couple of months he has come on a bundle," Curbishley told whufc.com. "He has been around the first team and has been around the squad training with us. We have got high hopes for him. I would not be afraid to play Tomkins, Collison and Sears.

"We have got 13 games left and I need to look at one or two things - other clubs will do the same. Obviously Tomkins and Collison have been around it for the last couple of months. Freddie has been in the squad on a couple of occasions. I am not afraid to put them in. I will put them in if I think it is right."
