Sheffield Utd boss Wilder: Morrison now ready

Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder says that Ravel Morrison is ready to make his first Premier League appearance in five years.

Morrison, 26, featured in pre-season and Tuesday's behind-closed-doors game with his former club Manchester United.

"He played 90 minutes, he's been involved in both squads now, so he's ready," said Wilder.

Morrison last featured in the Premier League as a second-half substitute for West Ham in a 1-3 home loss to Southampton in August 2014.

He travelled for the Blades' season opener at Bournemouth but was not named in the matchday squad for that match or last weekend's win against Crystal Palace.
