Millwall

Sheffield United will lock horns with former forward Oliver Burke this afternoon when they take on Millwall in the Championship. Burke is a former Blade…

Heckingbottom said: “He wanted to go back in the summer and Gary was keen to take him then. “He wanted a change and another fresh start, we were balancing the books, so for me it suited both. Those big attributes always make him a threat but dealing with that is easier said than done.” However, he’s back at Millwall now, with Gary Rowett reuniting with the 25-year-old after a 14-appearance cameo last year. Gary will be pleased because we spoke in the summer about the potential for him going there. The forward was on loan with Millwall last season in the Championship but made the move to Werder Bremen in the summer of 2022.

The Blades came close to hauling themselves level again eight minutes later when Chris Basham's back-post header from Oliver Norwood's header was kept out by Long, as was his follow-up. The Lions were well and truly in the mood and they almost doubled their lead after 14 minutes when Flemming went on a good run before finding Burke, whose shot was pushed behind by Foderingham. The Blades hauled themselves level twice in what was an absorbing encounter at The Den, but their promotion hopes took another dent as they fell to a second defeat in a week.
