Sheffield United will take on Preston North End today and will be looking to pick up the three points needed to keep any sort of hope of a top six finish alive.

The Blades have seen their chances at making a charge at the playoffs come to something of an end thanks to a 2-1 loss at Birmingham City last weekend, and will be hoping to give their home fans a send off today with three points against Alex Neil's men.

United manager Chris Wilder had this week promised to look at his team and make some changes, and he has done just that, with both Leon Clarke and Billy Sharp returning, while crucially, Kieron Freeman gets his first start of the season after missing the campaing through injury.

Freeman was a key figure last season as he hit double figures from right wing back as United romped to the League One title, and he quickly became a fan favourite in Sheffield with those at Bramall Lane.

We at FLW are delighted to see Freeman back too, but not as much it seems as some Blades fans, who were all over Twitter giving their thoughts on Freeman's return to the squad...
