1. Aaron Ramsdale - 8
Made a decent early save from Cairney's shot and redeemed himself in the second half after dropping a cross, getting up to deny Lookman on the rebound. Made a couple of superb stops late on to keep Blades in the game Photo: Oli Scarff
2. George Baldock - 7
Solid in defence and linked up well with Basham and Berge in attack. Had a good running battle with Antonee Robinson down the right Photo: Oli Scarff
3. Chris Basham - 7
Seized on a sloppy ball and put in a great cross for McBurnie, who headed wide, before an even better cross saw McBurnie head at Areola. Beaten by Lookman for Fulham's opener before being replaced by Sharp Photo: OLI SCARFF
4. John Egan - 7
Passed fit to play after his Covid contact scare, and wore the captain's armband despite Norwood also playing Photo: GARETH COPLEY
