Sheffield United fullback George Baldock is happy know manager Chris Wilder has the support of owner Prince Abdullah.

Defeat at Southampton was attended by Prince Abdullah, who told BBC Radio Sheffield: “I will stick with Chris no matter what."

Asked about that ahead of Thursday's home clash with Manchester United, Baldock told a press conference: “It's music to all our ears, of course.

“At the end of the day, we are the ones coming up short on the pitch. To question this manager after the moments he's given us all at this club…

"He's done a remarkable job."

He continued: “He's given nearly all of us the opportunity to come to this club, improve, work in a great environment, and biggest of all, he has stuck with us and given us that opportunity to play Premier League football.

“We need to repay that faith, we did that last year (when the team finished ninth) but have come up a little bit short this year.

“It's great that he has the backing and (we are) fully behind him to help us get back to where we need to be.

“We have complete faith in whatever team is put out there, whatever the manager chooses to do."
