Sheffield Wednesday forward Gary Hooper got involved in the Barry Bannan vs John Fleck debate that has divided the city with his social media post last night.

The former Celtic man took to twitter ten minutes before kick-off, with a message clearly implying he thinks teammate Bannan is the superior player.

The two midfield men, who are crucial to their respective sides, boast similar qualities and have been regularly compared in the past.

However, despite Hooper's message, it was Fleck who had the better of things last night, with the Blades dominating large periods of the game.

The Owls man was guilty of losing possession on several occasions, although he did do a lot of good defensive work as Wednesday frustrated the hosts.

And, many Sheffield United fans were quick to remind Hooper of the Blades dominance as the game went on, whilst Wednesday fans wanted to defend their player.

Here's how fans reacted to the strikers comments on twitter...
