Hardie injury boost for Plymouth

Ryan Hardie hurt his shoulder just a few days after returning from a gashed knee

Plymouth Argyle striker Ryan Hardie is fit to play against Queens Park Rangers on Saturday.

The 27-year-old Scot has missed the past three games with a shoulder injury he picked up on New Year's Day.

Argyle have played Michael Baidoo up front in their past two matches, with Hardie and Muhamed Tijani out and Andre Gray having left the club.

"He did everything had to do yesterday," Argyle head coach Miron Muslic said.

"It was a big, big session and he did everything and we got the green light.

"He's selectable and I have some plans for him."

Meanwhile, centre-back Kornel Szucs is still two weeks from fitness, while fellow defender Brendan Galloway is out after picking up a quadricep injury at the end of the 1-1 draw with Oxford United on Tuesday night.

Goalkeeper Conor Hazard missed Tuesday's game with injury and is unlikely to feature against QPR.

"It's impossible for us to think only short term, because if we think only game-by-game we will lose players for weeks and months, and this is something we clearly cannot afford," Muslic added on the Northern Ireland goalkeeper.

"He's a very important player for us, so I will use him only if he is able to play 100% and if there are no risks for later.

"It's not about one or two games it's about staying up after the last game."
