“I’ve tried to get as many games under my belt as possible because the more you play, the fitter you get,” Purse told the Birmingham Evening Mail.
“My last reserve game was on Thursday and I came through the 90 minutes okay so I’m happy with what I’ve managed to do so far.
“If the manager asks me if I think I’m ready for Saturday then I’ll tell him yes, as it stands now.”
