Sheffield United's start in the match against Crystal Palace could not have gone any better. The Blades took the lead after just 20 seconds thanks to Ben Brereton Diaz's strike.

However, Chris Wilder's side could not seperate themselves from Crystal Palace even though they took the lead for a second time through Jason McAtee.

Michael Olise and Eberechi Eze produced three moments of brilliance to get Crystal Palace all three points.

The Sheffield United boss could not be too critical of his side saying "those boys (Olise and Eze) can destroy your game plan with individual brilliance" and that the Palace pair would cost a minimum of £50m each.

The result leaves Sheffield United nine points from safety and they have a massive task ahead if they are to get out of the relegation zone.
