Striker Daryl Murphy is a doubt ahead of Saturday’s home game against Brighton with the hamstring injury he suffered in the warm-up at West Ham last night. The Irishman was replaced on the bench by Nathan Ellington only minutes before the kick off at Upton Park.

Murphy said: "I felt a twinge in my hamstring and had to pull out. I could have made it a lot worse, so while it was disappointing, it was the best thing to do."
