Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder has four matches to try and wrestle back the initiative from Leeds United, in the battle for an automatic promotion spot in the Championship this season.

Wilder though will need to change it up with three big players Billy Sharp, Chris Basham and John Egan all missing for the Good Friday visit of Nottingham Forest, Sharp and Basham through injury and Egan to suspension.

So how should Blades fans be feeling, faced with potential changes to their formation over the last few matches of the season?

Gary Hutchinson

“Dangerous game to be playing this late on.

“The players know a system that works for them.

“To switch it now, changing the approach and game plan, has to be a big risk.

“It worked for Sunderland of late, but it’s a roll of the dice.”

"It’s a risky move.

"Sheffield United’s formation has rarely changed this season, and that’s because it’s been a huge success for Chris Wilder’s side.

"To even consider making a change to that at such a crucial stage of the season is a potentially season-defining move by the Blades boss.

"If this pays off, then Wilder deserves a huge amount of credit."

Louie Chandler

"I think you have to trust Wilder here.

"The Blades have played the same formation throughout the campaign and it has worked very well.

"But it has been one that has relied on key operators staying fit, so if they are now injured, a change in style could be wise."
