Sheffield United striker Oli McBurnie is hoping Aaron Ramsdale is between the posts for Arsenal this weekend.

Ramsdale could face the Blades for the first time since he downed tools last year to get his move to the Gunners.

But McBurnie told the Sheffield Star: “He's just had his baby so I'm really happy for him.

“I was speaking to him a few nights ago so I'm buzzing for him and his missus. It'll be good to see a friendly face but hopefully I can stick a few past him if he's playing. And if he's not playing, hopefully I can stick a few past his mate so he can be playing."

“We know we're playing against top-class players, some of the best in the world," McBurnie added. “But I enjoy the challenge of testing against these and giving them a hard time. I think most teams know when they play us that we're not going to give in and die. My personal opinion is that I never want a centre-half to come off having had an easy game against me and, if everyone in the team does that then more times than not, we'll be okay."
