It will not be easy for Sheffield United to stay in the Premier League this season. After the success of the previous year, where they brushed the European positions after being a newly promoted, Chris Wilder’s have suffered a noticeable decline in their performance … to the point that they only have 5 points after 19 games played, occupying the undisputed last position in the league, with just 10 goals in favor. Salvation is 11 points away, one world.
The last two weeks have brought, yes, striking news for Sheffield United. Two years ago, first of all, they achieved their first and only win of the season after beating Newcastle 1-0. And days later, in their defeat against Tottenham (1-3), they maintained an anecdote that they had started precisely against Newcastle: lThey have two consecutive days lining up eleven British footballers from the five UK territories, the first time since Leeds did it in 1996.
The only two players who could break this streak are Lys Mousset, French, and Sander Berge, Norwegian, who have not played in either of the last two games. That is why this weekend’s line-up covered all British territories. England was represented by Basham, Bogle, Lundstram and Ramsdale, while from the Republic of Ireland there were three others: Egan, McGoldrick, Stevens. In addition, there were two Scots (Fleck, Burke), a Welshman (Ampadu) and a representative from Northern Ireland (Norwood). Perhaps this is the best sign of Sheffield United, but that does not mean they will be closer to salvation.
