Sheffield Utd manager Wilder: We should've put Wolves away

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder was left slightly disappointed after Sunday's 1-1 draw with Wolves.

Lys Mousset put the visitors ahead after just two minutes, only for Matt Doherty to tie things up in the second-half.

And Wilder thinks the Blades could've done more to extend their lead in the first-half.

"This was always going to be a tough fixture and a tough place to come," said Wilder. "I'm delighted we've kept our away record going into early December and we're still unbeaten away from home, which is great in terms of attitude and gives us something to go forward with.

"But there is some disappointment because we should have scored another goal and gone on to score two or even three.

"Our start to both halves was terrific, the first half in particular obviously. We had chances to put the game to bed and we didn't take them.

"Wolves have some terrific players at the top end of the pitch, all over the pitch actually, and if you give them enough time and chances then they will hurt you and that's what happened. We paid the price for that.

"We tried to get after Wolves and kill the game off but the teams in this division are absolutely top drawer and you aren't always going to be able to do that."
