Sheffield Utd boss Wilder not losing faith in Ramsdale

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder isn't losing faith in Aaron Ramsdale.

Wilder admits Ramsdale was at fault for the second goal Sheffield United conceded at Chelsea on Saturday but is backing his summer signing to come through a tough period.

Speaking after the 4-1 defeat, the manager said: "He was at fault for the second goal, we won't hide behind that.

"We had a young goalkeeper last year that made mistakes for us and we have another young goalkeeper here. That's the road that we went down, so we have to stay with it.

"In front of him is not great at the moment.

"We are conceding some really poor goals and we have to come through it, as we all do and he will be OK.

"He's a positive character and a very good young goalkeeper who is playing in a team that is not doing as good as it should be, even though you are bang up against it when you play the teams we have had to over this little period."
