'Hopefully Brewster can go on a run now' - Wilder

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder said it was "amazing" for Rhian Brewster to score his first goal for more than two years in the 1-0 victory at Millwall on Tuesday night.

The 24-year-old striker's playing time has been limited due to recurring hamstring injuries and he hadn't scored since October 2022 until his winner at The Den.

"Hopefully Rhian can have a run at it and score the goals and play the part that we all know he can for our club," Wilder told the Blades Heaven podcast.

"I've talked a lot about Rhian and his personality and his character and how he doesn't want to be injured.

"He doesn't want to be on the treatment table, coming in at 8:30am and going home at 5pm and watching all his pals play football and winning games.

"So, there's been some good news stories around the club recently. The Tom Davies situation when he scored and Rhian tonight.

"He takes all the headlines to win the game at a really difficult place, especially when it's a December Wednesday night."

Wilder said the Blades "got the job done" against a Millwall side who had been on a nine-game unbeaten run until their 1-0 defeat at home by Coventry on Saturday.

"We were by no means perfect but performance sometimes suffers when you really have to dig in and get a result," Wilder added, as Sheffield United returned to the top of the table.

"This is, as always, a tough place to come and get a result. There have been plenty of teams who have not got results here, even this year and in the past, and even us as well.

"The win is important, to get that result was a big one."
