Boss Chris Wilder will assess the health of his Sheffield United squad before they travel to Liverpool for Thursday night's tough trip to Anfield, with a number of fitness concerns from the weekend draw with Fulham. Oli McBurnie, Vini Souza and Ollie Arblaster all made way before the 90-minute mark with physical issues while George Baldock has been ruled out for essentially the rest of the season.
Cameron Archer's recovery from a calf issue has been delayed, limiting Wilder's options further as he looks to plot a remarkable result against title-chasing Liverpool. We tasked our man to step into Wilder's shoes and select the side he would send out to face the Reds at Anfield - has he got it just about right, or would you do anything differently?

6. Ben Osborn
Osborn continues to give his all in the unfamiliar position of left wing-back but will have his work cut out at Anfield. Another option could be former Liverpool man Yasser Larouci but that would seem a bold call given his lack of football in recent weeks | Getty Images
7. Oliver Arblaster/Andre Brooks
Much will depend on Arblaster’s fitness levels after he made way against Fulham after taking a big whack from Robinson and, in Wilder’s words, being left unable to move. Can he recover in time to go again against Liverpool? If not, could it be another chance for Andre Brooks to impress against them after his performance at Bramall Lane? | Sportimage
8. Vini Souza
Again fitness depending after he made way against Fulham with cramp. If Souza wants to play for Brazil this is the kind of occasion he needs to stamp his authority upon. If he doesn’t make it, could Anis Slimane get the nod for a bit more technical quality in midfield? | Sportimage
