Formline 3.13– "Have Sheffield United really turned a corner?”...

What’s behind United’s recent revival, and can it survive a tougher run of fixtures?

Back-to-back wins. One point off the play-offs. Are we allowed to be optimistic?

David, Sam and Riley look back at the wins over Wrexham and Preston and ask what’s changed. There’s more possession, more threat from open play and a left-hand side beginning to click. We discuss Romelle Donovan’s growing influence, Brereton Díaz’s better role and a superb Sydie Peck hat-trick.

But how much does an easier run of fixtures explain? Sam digs into Chris Wilder’s remarkable record against bottom-half teams — and the much less convincing numbers against the top half.

Plus, Charlton and Watford predictions, The Pinch’s sixth FSA Awards shortlist and some dangerously premature karaoke planning.
