Sheffield Utd boss Wilder confident no fallout from Souza, Robinson bust-up

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder will have to calm tensions between his players this week.

The Blades head coach has spoken about the on-field bust-up between Jack Robinson and Vini Souza.

The two were involved in a tussle during the team's 1-0 loss to Wolves at Molineux.

Speaking post-game, Wilder said: "That happens, at every football club up and down the country, three or four times a year.

“That sort of coming together. Of course we can't condone it, it has to stay at a level.

“We have a responsibility to young kids out there playing, I get that. But that happens behind closed doors at every level. It'll happen at Man City and it'll happen at the bottom of League Two.

"Of course you don't want to see it happen but it does. VAR spotted it, of course, because they spot everything else.

“For me, you just move on pretty quickly as long as it doesn't step over the line, which they understand and they're cool about. They were told of their responsibility at half-time and it all got smoothed over."
