The home of Sheffield United on BBC Sport online. Includes the latest news stories, results, fixtures, video and audio.
First half was just like both teams were in the Championship. The offsides spared our blushes and the triple substitution showed Hecky's frustration. A great crowd, making lots of noise - plenty of Palace fans too. But we are nervous. No real budget, an owner selling, but a great manager.Considering the departure of two key players in as many weeks, I thought it was a spirited, but at times lacklustre, performance at the Lane.
Since winning promotion, the Blades have sold two key players - Iliman Ndiaye and Sander Berge - and now have a spate of injuries. While Heckingbottom gave many youngsters their debut in the Championship, he said after Saturday's defeat that he doesn't want to continue that trend in the top flight and admitted his squad is "short".The Blades boss knows United need to make more recruits before the transfer deadline if they are to avoid a repeat of the wretched start they made to their last Premier League campaign in 2020-21.
