Lampard ahead of Sean Dyche... you know, the manager of the team who are constantly favourites for relegation and had three keepers on the bench at one stage because they had no other players, the only team to earn points at Anfield, and finished top 10...

Hot take alert but IMO that’s our best win of the season. Boro are an utter grind to play against and we just beat them without 2 of our most important players, blokes out of position, and THEN having to reshuffle again when Baldock went off. Stepped up big time when it counted.

Deserved win against possibly the most irritating team to come to Bramall Lane this season. Really poor first 30 mins and then much the better team from then on - and a welcome return to the scoresheet for “Lord Lundstram”. All he needed was £22m worth of competition 😄

Genuinely sad about Coutts leaving. Brutal, freakish injury when he was at the absolute peak of his abilities, and had gone to a level I don't think many of us had seen from a Blades midfielder for years (decades?). Hope to see him starting games for someone very soon.

Henderson and O’Connell have been so good this season that it was a genuine shock to see those errors. Absolutely gutting that a *superb* performance up to then is only worth a point, sure, but those two (and this team) have so much credit in the bank.
