Burnley 1 Sheffield United 1 - Player ratings

Here’s how we saw the individual performances.

Dean Henderson – a couple of goo saves late in the half, one from Jay Rodriguez which was crucial 7

Chris Basham – did not get forward as much as usual, even when his team was on top 6

John Egan – failed to connect with a good first-half chance but his equaliser was brilliant 7

Jack Robinson – mixed bag from the centre-back – some good attacking play but a sloppy and costly foul throw and should have been punished by Vydra for giving the ball away 6

George Baldock – had a hand in the goal 7

Sander Berge – visibly gaining in confidence, though he missed a few good opportunities 7

Oliver Norwood – sacrificed in the switch to 3-4-1-2 6

Ben Osborn – his best game as a Blade 7

Enda Stevens – some good crosses 7

David McGoldrick – started up front, played much of the second half in the hole 6

Oliver McBurnie – lively, but lacked a finish 6

Substitutes:

Billy Sharp (for Norwood, 54) – involved in the equaliser 6

Jack O’Connell (for Robinson, 54) – a good overlap and cross shows what the Blades have been missing 6

Lys Mousset (for McBurnie, 71) – N/A

Jack Rodwell (for Basham, 75) – N/A

Not used: Jagielka, Moore, K Freeman, Rodwell, Zivkovic.
