Norwood admits Sheffield Utd players discussing Champions League qualification

Sheffield United midfielder Oliver Norwood admits the players are discussing qualifying for the Champions League.

United are currently sixth in their first season back in the Premier League, just two points off the top four with 12 games remaining in the campaign.

"There's no getting away from the fact that we've put ourselves in a great position," he said.

"The aim at the start of the season was to stay up. I can't see us going down to be honest! We've put ourselves in a position, we've performed well and given ourselves an opportunity now to make it a great season.

"It would be silly to say we haven't spoken about it. You dream and you get excited, can we be that team to get in there?

Whoever gets it is going to deserve it because they've been consistent over the 38 games but it is definitely something we're looking at and we're not going to shy away from the face that that's how high we're aiming."
