Sheffield United today confirmed the sale of young midfielder David Brooks, with the exciting Welsh talent sealing a move to Premier League Bournemouth. 

The youngster, who was massively impressive for United last season as the Blades mounted a run at the playoffs on their return to the Championship, was courted by a whole host of top flight clubs but it is the Cherries who have indeed sealed the deal.

Brooks will no doubt go straight into Eddie Howe's plans as he looks to get accustomed to life in the Premier League and make an impact.

It wasn't all happy news for Brooks today though, as the midfielder did the inevitable and took to social media to thank the Blades and their fans in a genuinely heartfelt message delivered on Twitter.

Of course, plenty of United fans were going to take the time out to respond to the youngster, who endeared himself to Blades fans forever with a nutmeg of Sheffield Wednesday's Jack Hunt as well as a late winner at Leeds United last term.

Here at FLW, we've taken a closer look at just how Blades fans were responding to Brooks, and it's safe to say the majority wish the youngster well...
