Luton 1-3 Sheff Utd: What Wilder said

  • Published

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "The reaction of the players this week has been great. Our attitude was only going to be answered when it was questioned on the pitch, and I thought they were outstanding and deserved the result.

"We let everybody down last Saturday evening [in the 5-0 loss to Aston Villa], we can't get away from that and we have to own it. There is no hiding place, you are in the Premier League.

"We answered it in a great manner. Feet on the ground, it has taken a long time to get that first away win.

"We have some young players learning in the hardest league in the world. Vini [Souza] was outstanding. Now we just keep it going. We need to engage our supporters, we let them down last week and now we have to engage them again in the next game.

"I can't look too far ahead, I can't look at what the league table will look like at the end of the season. There was a structure about us, I thought we could counter and hurt them. The level of performance was good."
