Sheffield United boss Kevin Blackwell has ruled out loan moves for Michael Tonge and Gary McSheffrey.
The Blades manager admits he is keen on the duo but will not make any rash moves as injury has ravaged his playing list, preferring to use the loanees he currently has at his disposal.
"Tonge and McSheffrey are two names I have considered and I won't dismiss them as possibilities, but I already have six loanees available and can only play five," Blackwell said.
"As virtually all of them are fit out of 12 players who are training they would have to play anyway - or I would have to shuffle things around again.
"If I can get some of the strikers fit soon I might then look at a midfield loan."
