About this listen

Ruben Selles's future as Sheffield United's head coach must be in serious doubt after a home defeat by Millwall made it four from as many matches under the Spaniard. Next up is just what he didn't want – a trip to early Championship table-toppers Middlesbrough at the Riverside. But the international break which follows affords Selles an opportunity to rescue United and his job.

SUMMARY:

  • Four defeats under Ruben Selles, three of them in the Championship, has resulted in Sheffield United already losing serious ground before the season's hardly got underway..
  • Management issues, particularly in recruitment, have exacerbated the team's struggles and fan frustration but are not an excuse for the unacceptable performances being dished up.
  • The upcoming international break and the fixtures that follow present an opportunity for the manager to redeem himself.
  • Fans are growing increasingly impatient as expectations remain high for the team’s performance.
  • The potential for a turnaround is there, but it's going to require a monumental effort from Selles and a buy-in from his players that hasn't been visible so far..
