Sheffield Unitedâs Leon Clarke has admitted the main factor behind the clubâs success this season has been manager Chris Wilder, reports BBC Radio Sheffield journalist, Jonathan Buchan.
Wilder has led the Blades to the top of the Sky Bet League One table, and his side will secure promotion to the Championship with a victory over Northampton Town on Saturday afternoon.
Clarke scored the all-important opening goal in Unitedâs 2-0 victory over Coventry City last night, helping the club to the brink of a Championship return for the first time since 2011.
Last nightâs goal was just Clarkeâs fourth of the season and only his second in the league.
When asked on what had been key to the Bladesâ success this season, Clarke was blunt with his response, he said: âThe manager.â
Wilderâs side are currently six-points clear of second-placed Bolton Wanderers, leaving themselves in pole position to secure the title with just five fixtures of the season remaining.
