Billy Sharp warns Sheffield United to cut out the mistakes

Sharp was the catalyst for a dramatic turnaround at Wigan on Tuesday, as United came from 3-0 down to register a point after a 3-3 draw.

Sharp got on the scoresheet with his fifth goal in as many League One games, sandwiched between Matt Done’s brace, and the Sheffield-born striker said: "We were delighted to get a point but we can’t be giving three goals away.

"If you come to Wigan away and score three, then you should be winning the game.

"So it’s frustrating but, from 3-0 down, you’ll always be happy with a point.

"At three down, you have nothing to lose I guess - you might as well lose by five. So we were a bit more adventurous and committed men forward, while Wigan sat back because they thought they’d won the game.

"We did so well to get a point but we need to cut the errors out."

Sharp almost capped the turnaround with a late winner, only to be denied spectacularly by Jussi Jaaskelainen.

"I thought it was in," Sharp added.

"But we’re delighted to get a draw and hopefully it’s a turning point. We are chasing it a little bit at the minute, and we need to start winning games... and quickly."
