But who caught the eye for the Blades? Here’s our player ratings from the game.
5. Enda Stevens 6
Moved back to centre-half with Lowe returning and shifted back to wing-back when Blades changed shape. Steady rather than spectacular Photo: Andrew Yates
6. Max Lowe 6
Back in the side after his concussion and showed his willingness and ability to get forward on occasions. Looks a tidy signing so far Photo: Tim Keeton
7. Ethan Ampadu 6
Retained his place after an impressive showing at Anfield but couldn't hit the same heights against City. Gave the ball away a couple of times, leading to good City chances Photo: Tim Keeton
8. Sander Berge 7
Did brilliantly to set up a chance for Lundstram after nutmegging Cancelo down the Blades right. Looks so dangerous when given chance to rampage forward Photo: Simon Bellis
