Player ratings

Callum O'Hare beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 23. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Match

Andrew Moran sends Sheffield United past Portsmouth

It finished 2‑0, and it was Andrew Moran’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Sheffield United.

Player ratings

One of those days for Gustavo Hamer

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.24, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

The dugout

Andrew Moran gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match

Sheffield United and Norwich City take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Squad

Words at Sheffield United training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jaïro Riedewald is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout

The view from the dugout

“We did not lose. Some weeks that is all you get, and I would rather have the point than not.” Jacob Fisher chose the glass-half-full version of 1‑1; the supporters left with the other one.

The dugout

Patrick Bamford left out for tactical reasons at Sheffield United

The shape wanted a different profile against this opponent, which is a real football answer and no comfort at all to the man it is about. He did nothing wrong and he did not play.

Market

The Japhet Tanganga story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Japhet Tanganga signs something — a contract at Sheffield United or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

Transfer targets

Sheffield United make their move for Che Adams

$3.9M on the table at Torino. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Squad

Matt Doherty signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Matt Doherty and Sheffield United agree another 2 years.

Squad

Patrick Bamford in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Sheffield United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

Eyes on Luke Faxon again

The phone has started ringing about Luke Faxon again, and this time the name on the line is Grimsby Town. Sheffield United are listening politely and promising nothing.

Market

Gustavo Hamer wants European nights

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.

Squad

7 new faces, and Sheffield United are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

In brief
