Kanu back to face Blades
Kanu is set to keep his place in Portsmouth’s attack at home to Sheffield United despite showing signs of a knee injury in the draw at Arsenal last week.
His fellow strikers Benjani Mwaruwari (hamstring) and Lomana Lualua (thigh) are out until January but Andy Cole, missing for a month with an Achilles injury, is a likely substitute after coming through two training sessions.
Midfielder Manuel Fernandes could feature in the Premiership match, even though he is due to return to Benfica in January after a loan spell.
Team (from): James, Johnson, Primus, Campbell, Pamarot, O’Neil, Mendes, Davis, Taylor, Kranjcar, Kanu, Thompson, Cole, Fernandes, Griffin, Hughes, Koroman, Douala, Ashdown.
