How did they do?
Bullied their way to within sight of the play-offs but ultimately probably lacked the goals to challenge.

How will they do?
The signing of Asaba at the end of last season and of Peschisolido over the summer should help cure a problem, even if neither is strictly of Premiership quality. The Blades will still be a tough side to beat, but it's hard to picture Warnock, particularly backed by a perpetually unsettled boardroom, challenging for the Prem. Top half, but no cigar.

Do we like them?
Still stained by years under Bassett and now playing underneath another of football's more odious characters, the Blades aren't too high up the Christmas card list.

If they were a tv or radio show, what would they be?
"100 Per Cent", on Channel 5. No frills and limited entertainment.
