Wolves 'Superman' Stephen Ward today insisted he is ready to fly against QPR tomorrow.

Steven Fletcher is doubtful with the groin injury sustained in last Saturday's 2-0 defeat to Tottenham, having failed to train fully yesterday.

And with Sylvan Ebanks-Blake still out with a knee injury, Ward – hugely impressive at left-back so far this season and dubbed Superman by boss Mick McCarthy for his ability to play anywhere – is ready for a switch which is expected to see George Elokobi return at left-back for his first Premier League start of the season.

Wolves could opt to play Kevin Doyle on his own up front, but either way Ward says the players will adapt.
