Sheffield United midfielder Sander Berge was the talk of Blades Twitter this evening after delivering another fine performance for Chris Wilder’s men.
Despite losing 2-1 at Liverpool, United put in a much-improved performance to come within touching distance of taking something from the Premier League champions.

Indeed, it was Berge who gave the Blades the lead in the opening period, slotting home from the spot after Oli McBurnie was fouled on the edge of the Liverpool box. From there, the £22m Norwegian grew into the game more and more and was one of the standout players on the pitch, despite the wealth of talent on display in Jurgen Klopp’s ranks.
Berge’s performance, not his first brilliant one of the season, caught the eye of plenty of Blades fans on social media, too, who were quick to sing the praises of their midfield star.

Great effort. Being extra picky but ramsdale 1st goal, parries it back into danger, could that go round post instead?
Questions not answered regarding Oli Mcb and Burke and their finishing, both had good chances. Berge is a delight to watch, glides through the game #sufc— Blades General (@sufc03511924) October 24, 2020
