Gyabi is back but Forshaw absent

MIDFIELDER Adam Forshaw will again be missing for Plymouth Argyle when they play fifth-placed West Bromwich Albion at Home Park in the Championship tonight.

However, the 32-year-old is not too far away from returning to action after picking up a hamstring injury in the 3-1 defeat at Sunderland on February 10, which opens up the possibility of Forshaw being available for the visit to one of his former clubs, Middlesbrough, this Saturday.

Argyle will become back on-loan Leeds United midfielder Darko Gyabi against West Brom after he could not play against parent club at the weekend, when the Pilgrims lost 2-0 at home to the promotion-chasing Yorkshire side.

That was when Mustapha Bundu made his comeback from a calf injury which had sidelined him for four matches as an 85th-minute substitute. He is not ready to start a game for Argyle yet, but he is a valuable extra attacking option off the bench.

Pilgrims’ boss Ian Foster reported there were no new injury issues to come out of the Sky-televised game against Leeds. “Nothing from the weekend thankfully, plus we get Darko Gyabi back, which is great for him and for us.”
