Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder admits he wanted to sign Neal Maupay after the striker scored in their draw with Brighton.

Wilder was generally happy with his side's efforts as they drew 1-1 with Albion.

The Sheffield United boss said: “You can't do anything about when they have got five or six 6ft 4in lads.

“You give a free-kick away and you have got Aaron Mooy on the pitch, who is technically a brilliant player.

“He puts it into an area where you have got, I don't know who it was – Dan Burn or Dunk or Duffy or Glenn Murray.

“You can't coach against that but you can coach against the second ball.

“We were a little bit disappointed Maupay got a run on us and, to be fair, he is somebody we obviously tried to get in the summer.

“I have a lot of admiration for him and have seen him play in the Championship as well. He will be delighted with his goal."
