Sheffield United make the trip to West Bromwich Albion in the Championship on Sunday (kick-off 15:00 GMT).

Here’s a recap on the main lines from Blades boss Chris Wilder’s pre-match news conference:

  • Striker Rhian Brewster will return to the squad for Sunday’s game.

  • There is still a question mark over Kieffer Moore – however, he is expected to return for Wednesday’s game against Millwall at the latest.

  • He reflected on the last 12 months going from a tough Premier League season to top of the Championship table:

  • On stricter refereeing: “Tackles that we made 10, 15 years ago are not getting punished to tackles that are getting punished now are [for] little things.

  • “The game has massively changed – it isn’t as physical, it isn’t as competitive.”

  • On Albion: “I look at the squad and I think that is a real top Championship squad right the way through.

  • “West Brom have always been a difficult team to play against. Tactically sound and difficult to break down, but got good players on the counter attack.”
