Wilson praises gritty Blades

Sheffield United manager Danny Wilson hailed his side as they returned to winning ways with a 1-0 victory at Yeovil.

A bullet header from captain Neill Collins 10 minutes after the break fired the unbeaten Blades to their first win in four matches following three successive draws. "It was a strong and determined performance from the boys and, at this stage of the season, the three points are paramount," said Wilson. "We found out last year how difficult it is to come down to Yeovil and play and it was no different. We have won against a side that gets a lot of results at home. "It was about rolling our sleeves up again after a tough contest against Doncaster on Tuesday. Coming down here was a different kettle of fish again. You can be defending in your own box one minute and then in the opposition box moments later, the stadium is tight and compact and it's an intimidating place to come and play." Wilson added: "We went with four strikers to really go and attack them. Paul Gallagher is a striker and so is Richard Cresswell to a degree, and I wanted to put them under a lot of pressure and find some goals. "Sometimes set plays are the difference between the two teams, and they can be very important."
