They were not at their brilliant best but Sheffield United fully deserved their win over West Ham United - even before VAR intervened.

Here is how we rated the Blades’ individual performances at against the Hammers.

Relatively untroubled until a spell for West Ham saw him twice deny Manuel Lanzini, the save from his free-kick in particular standing out

1. Dean Henderson 8

A typical Basham display. Chased and headed everything, putting his foot in when needed and bombing forward when required

2. Chris Basham 7

Headed over an early chance from a corner and may feel he could have hit the target. Later miscued a header at the other end of the pitch but luckily Anderson shot wide. Lost his footing later but Lanzini shot straight at Henderson

3. John Egan 6

Solid rather than spectacular but did what he had to do in keeping a £45m man in Haller quiet for much of the game. Belongs completely at this level

4. Jack O'Connell 7
