It was a disappointing return to Bramall Lane for Chris Wilder, with the Sheffield United manager having previously admitted he hoped he could make a difference at the club.

“It's obviously not a great situation that the club is in, but it is what it is and hopefully we can make a little difference from tonight,” he said before the match.

'It's a huge job and everyone talks about us and the story is that we're gone and this club has been built.

“The skipper will know what this club is about, it's an underdog club, it's a fight against all odds and we're in that situation now.

'We've had it for a long time. Many years ago for me, also in the city, so we are used to it and hopefully we can come out fighting.'
