Chris Wilder Urges Consistency for Sheffield United’s Championship Climb

Sheffield United’s head coach, Chris Wilder, is urging his team to maintain consistency as they continue their push in the Championship. The team has recently moved out of the relegation zone and aims to build on their recent success.

Importance of Consistent Performance

Wilder emphasized that consistency is crucial for both results and overall performance. After securing a 3-0 victory over Portsmouth, the team is determined to maintain this momentum. They will face Leicester City in their next match on Saturday at 12:30 GMT, with the potential to climb up to 18th place in the league.

Recent Achievements

  • Sheffield United is coming off back-to-back wins for only the second time this season.
  • Tuesday’s victory against Portsmouth showcased their developing form.

Wilder noted the team’s ability to deliver performance consistency, stating that fans and opponents know what to expect when facing Sheffield United. He aims for the players to produce performances rated between seven and eight out of ten, avoiding fluctuations that can lead to unpredictability.

Lessons from Previous Games

The Blades have encountered challenges, such as a recent 3-2 defeat to Preston in late October. This inconsistency highlighted the need for improvement in their game. Wilder insists that achieving consistent performance will be key to their successful climb in the Championship.
