Wilder reacts to Sheffield United win at Luton

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder spoke to BBC Radio Sheffield after his side beat bottom club Luton Town 1-0 to return to the top of the Championship.

When asked about it not being a pretty win, Wilder responded by saying: "That's the understatement of the season.

"Their approach to it, from the off – especially when we saw the team sheet with a few of the experienced boys – we talked about having to expect the Luton Town of old," he continued.

"It was everything from the year they went up, it was everything in the Premier League that Premier League teams struggled to cope with - the two centre forwards. It came long from the off, we saw it went straight back to the goalkeeper and bang on top of you. And every free-kick was on top of you.

"You just have to deal with it and, at times, it's really difficult to come out of it and try play your natural, normal game. We tried at times, but they were massively up for it.

"The target on our back, because of the position that we are in and because it was Sheffield United against Luton Town, it never felt like a team at the top of the division versus a team that was rock bottom.

"You have to show different qualities for different games if you want to be successful, and we showed huge personality and huge character."
