Alan Irvine unsure on Sebastien Pocognoli fitness

West Bromwich Albion boss Alan Irvine admits that he is unsure whether defender Sebastien Pocognoli will be fit for his side's clash against West Ham United.

West Bromwich Albion boss Alan Irvine has revealed that defender Sebastien Pocognoli is a doubt for his side's Premier League clash against West Ham United on Tuesday.

The left-back sustained a dead leg in the Baggies' defeat to Arsenal on Saturday in a collision with teammate Chris Brunt, which has left his fitness in the balance for the match at The Hawthorns.

Irvine told the club's official website: "Seb has a dead leg, we think. He and Chris Brunt slid in at the same time and it seems he came off worse. All we can do now is assess him and see how he is.

"Dead legs can be a problem because you never know how quickly they will settle down. But we will keep our fingers crossed that he will recover in time for the West Ham game."

Irvine's side are 15th in the Premier League going into their clash with the Hammers.
