Sheffield United have effectively clinched promotion back to the Premier League with the chances of a slip-up at this stage looking quite thin. Already 6 points clear of 3rd place Leeds United, the Blades will be hoping that Aston Villa can continue their win-stream when they travel to Elland Road on Sunday.
Sheffield were comfortable 2-0 winners over Ipswich Town on the night and a couple of decent goals added to the atmosphere in the stadium. Having laid witness to multiple bursts of noise around the stadium, United did well to keep their mental states in check and come through what was touted be a tricky fixture with a positive result.
Here are the Sheffield United Player Ratings:
Did well to keep Ipswich off the scoresheet and was extremely composed with his kicking as well.
The full-back was unstoppable on the night as he just never seemed to tire out. His powerful running was a big asset.
Did well in the left-sided centre-half role and proved his ability to carry the ball forward from defence.
Yet another awe-inspiring display for the Blades defensive commander who has been supremely consistent this term.
Easily the man of the match on the night, the centre-back notched up a goal and an assist in the win.
Did well to apply pressure on the Ipswich men in midfield and almost set up the striker for another goal.
A dogged and adamant display from the tireless midfielder who seemed to launch a multitude of Blades attacks.
His crosses from the flanks have been unbelievable and it’s a huge surprise that he didn’t get himself an assist tonight.
Was taken off around 5 minutes before the final whistle and got himself a well-deserved standing ovation.
The Blades have been crying out for a proper striker and they’ve definitely found the right man in McGoldrick.
