So it was great that Chris Wilder shared details of a classic piece of man-management after Sheffield United's latest victory, a dominant 3-1 win over Leicester. Before the game at Stoke City and the home match against the Foxes, Wilder hung two shirts in the dressing room - a West Bromwich Albion and Wrexham shirt. "That West Brom and that Wrexham shirt is going to go up, and I don't want to see another shirt for a long, long time." There's a long way to go and nobody will be getting carried away after two wins. Yet there's no point pretending that Sheffield United don't have players capable of driving them up the Championship table, with a manager who's been there and done it before.
