Brereton made it four goals in five league appearances for the Blades when he bagged a brace against Fulham on Saturday. The 24-year-old put the hosts ahead after 58 minutes, before turning provider for Oliver McBurnie 10 minutes later and adding the hosts’ third another two minutes later. The Chilean attacker also made two tackles, one clearance, two blocks and one key pass. Photo: Alex Livesey
Joining Ben Brereton in our team of the week is teammate Oliver McBurnie, with whom the former combined so effectively in Saturday’s draw with Fulham. Like Brereton, McBurnie both scored and assisted against the Whites, as he set up the home side’s opener before restoring their lead 10 minutes later with just his fifth league goal of the season. McBurnie also won a total of eight aerial duels, made two tackles and two clearance. Photo: Alex Livesey
The 22-year-old Brazilian continued his remarkable goalscoring form in spectacular fashion, finding the net with an acrobatic effort in stoppage time to help the visitors to a point. That strike was Muniz’s eighth in his last eight league matches; no Premier League player has scored more since the beginning of February than the Fulham man. Photo: Jan Kruger
