For a bit of fun, we've used the latest edition of Football Manager to travel five years into the future, and taken a look at how Sheffield United' s side shapes up. This is how the management simulator predicts the Blades will be lining up in January 2026.
9. AMC: Eberechi Eze
In real life, he scored a screamer against the Blades for Crystal Palace last weekend. On FM, he's in his first season at Bramall Lane after arriving for £20m, and has proved to be an excellent signing. Photo: CLIVE ROSE
10. AML: Jack Harrison
His eventual move to Sheffield United ruffled some Leeds feathers, that's for sure. He's in his third season at Bramall Lane, and is among United's most influential players. Photo: MATTHEW CHILDS
11. ST: Che Adams
He joined the club in a swap deal, which saw George Baldock move to Southampton. Adams has been struggling for goals since his arrival, and is on the transfer list. Photo: Stu Forster
12. Sub 1: Marcus Bettinelli
The former England hopeful, now 33, is a safe pair of hands and a fine backup option when required. Photo: Alex Burstow
