The wing-back's throw-in went to John Fleck, who fed Sander Berge, who played it to Enda Stevens, the man over, to drill home. It was all one-touch stuff, ...

As half-time approached Gibbs-White had a goal disallowed for offside and Wes Foderingham stuck out a left boot to deny Fabio Carvalho what looked a certain goal. Within 10 minutes they led, Osborn laying the ball back to Oliver Norwood, whose cross Gibbs-White headed in at the near post. Bobby Decordova-Reid's shot against a defender was the clearest signal. The Cottagers had actually started the game looking reasonably hungry but the Blades were absolutely ravenous for the win that would book their place in the play-offs, and their makeshift 22-year-old strikers Iliman Ndiaye and Morgan Gibbs-White rose to the big occasion. Behind them, Sander Berge was in the mood too. Gibbs-White and Chris Basham were soon pulling out the party pieces.

Sheffield United v Fulham: Heckingbottom makes one change for ... (Sheffield United News)

Paul Heckingbottom will make one change to his starting XI as Sheffield United look to see off Fulham at Bramall Lane.

The in-form Iliman Ndiaye will lead the line once again. A whole host of permutations are on offer when it comes to fifth and sixth place. Further up the pitch, Conor Hourihane and Morgan Gibbs-White have recovered from minor knocks and should both be fine.

Sheffield United: Fulham boss Marco Silva appears to make a play ... (The Star)

See you next season,” Marco Silva muttered, as he slipped out of Bramall Lane's media suite.

“But when they scored, they punished us. United, as we know, they started (the campaign) badly. Now, we will see what happens because there are four very good clubs in there." “It will be difficult for anyone, because so many things can impact upon the games. “They, and I admit this, deserved to get the win,” Silva said, after watching United guarantee their place in the end of term knockouts with an emphatic 4-0 win. Certainly, if they can replicate this performance throughout the Championship play-offs, it will take a damn good team to stop them reaching the top-flight.

The Blades romped to a 4-0 win against the champions at Bramall Lane yesterday to book a play-off place.

He believes United have a lot of quality in their squad as they prepare for next week's crunch clash. I have to be fair with them, they deserved their win clear." For the Baggies, however, it's been a disastrous campaign. They punished a big mistake from ourselves in the second goal. We started well and beat their first pressure most of the times and play in our offensive area. He said: "If you are talking about the start, we started much better.

The Blades boss has been encouraged by his new-look strikeforce in recent weeks.

"We have had lots of combinations up top, we have lots of good strikers at the club. QPR could not live with United's attacking energy in the second half and champions Fulham were quickly cast aside yesterday. Iliman is showing people what he is about. However, that has not been the case in recent matches. The latest combination is Iliman Ndiaye and Morgan Gibbs-White. Their relationship with Sander Berge yesterday in a three-pronged attack was even more impressive.
