Here’s how we rated the Blades’ players as their unbeaten run extended to 11 games in all competitions ...
5. John Egan 6
A solid Egan-like display at the heart of defence, even if a foray down the left wing, and attempted Maradona-style pirouette, was a little out of character Photo: Darren Staples
6. Jack Robinson 6
Won most things that came his way in the air against the Millers' rangey threats and looked comfortable enough with the ball at his feet as he fed McBurnie in a clear training-ground routine. Absolutely cemented Odoffin in exactly the type of challenge he relishes and it would have been fascinating to see how Hugill coped if he'd tried his wind-up tactics on the left wing rather than the right Photo: Gary Oakley
7. Max Lowe 5.5
Solid rather than spectacular down the left from Lowe. Was more heavily involved in the first half, including a good passage of play when he won the ball back high and United looked to break Photo: Gary Oakley
8. Ollie Norwood 6
Wasn't allowed to exert his usual influence on proceedings against Rotherham's up-and-at-em style but was still at the heart of a lot United did well, when they did get the ball down and look to play their game Photo: Ashley Crowden
