Max Lowe and Jayden Bogle are ready to cope with whatever workload Sheffield United ask them to shoulder over the coming weeks, manager Paul Heckingbottom has reassured supporters, despite only just recovering from injuries.

The former Derby County duo, both signed by Heckingbottom’s predecessor Chris Wilder, are expected to start Friday’s game against Hull City after fitness issues ruled fellow wing-backs Enda Stevens and George Baldock out of last weekend’s win over Stoke City.

After expressing concerns about conditions at United’s training complex, which he insisted contributed to the problems suffered by Stevens and Baldock, Heckingbottom’s repeated reminders about the need to “protect” players have prompted fears among the club’s followers that Lowe and Bogle could be put at an unnecessary risk.
