Sheffield United’s recruitment addresses biggest Blades issue*

Chris Wilder is trying to address Sheffield United’s biggest worry, and the team is already looking towards the summer rebuild.
Any player will be evaluated based on four factors when Chris Wilder meets with Sheffield United’s new head of recruiting this summer to finalise the team’s transfer ambitions. How clever and adaptive they are tactically. the way they manage a football technically. Mentally: their disposition and capacity to bear the pressures of participating in the Blades’ major reconstruction.

The fourth and potentially most important factor this summer will be physicality. One of the big issues Wilder has identified since his return to Bramall Lane in December is the condition of his Blades squad – not just in terms of injuries, although their impact on a squad already relatively threadbare has been well documented already.
