Ratings: A few 7s but also a couple of 5s on a bittersweet Championship afternoon for Sheffield United v QPR
Davies: Literally nothing to do in first half after being given the nod ahead of new signing Cooper. Made one key save in the second to deny Field as Rangers pressed and could do nothing about either goal. 6
Gilchrist: Made one brave first-half block. Committed, tenacious and unflustered. But it was tougher after the break. 6

Hide AdAhmedhodzic: Remains to be seen if he is around long-term. Easy early on and then it changed. 6
Robinson: Him and his defensive cohorts won’t have been happy with both concessions. 5
Burrows: Steady in the first half, but more difficult after that. A mix-up with Robinson helped lead to leveller. 5
Arblaster: Knows he belongs and the shirt continues to look light. 7
Souza: Strong in the first half. Had to dig in after. 6

Hide AdBrooks: Still a bit raw, but some quality moments all the same. 6
O’Hare: Showed what he brings to the party early and was involved in both early goals. Faded on restart, but still encouraging. 7
Hamer: Moments of quality and another goal. 7
Moore: Got his goal, his maiden one for United. A positive for any newcomers. 6
Substitutes: Souttar (Gilchrist 77), 6.
Slimane (Brooks 85), Peck (O’Hare 85), Rak-Sakyi (Souza 91), Brewster (Ahmedhodzic 91).
