Sheffield Utd manager Wilder: Beating relegation not enough

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder says he will not accept his side simply beating relegation.

The Blades have surprised many this season with their courageous attitude, and Wilder says the club are aiming for as a high a finish as possible.

Wilder said: "We've always raised the bar. We don't want to just finish fourth from the bottom.

"I know the players better than anybody. I know who to push and who not to.

"We're not settling for being 'okay'. We want to raise the bar and keep pushing individually.

"That's been the theme running through. There's clarity in that. They know I'm tough with them but they accept it.

"We're in a tough changing room. Some people might need a bit of help at times but we're tough with the boys too."
