Speed backs misfiring Blades
Sheffield United boss Gary Speed saw his side draw a blank for the sixth time this season as they lost 1-0 at home to Watford - but has backed his players to find the net.
Only Ched Evans, Richard Cresswell and Jean Calve have scored Championship goals for United this term and Speed knows that must change if they are to arrest their slide down the table.
Speed said: "Goalscoring is a recurring theme. It was a problem already before this and it's not something new at all.
"If you aren't scoring then you aren't going to win football games. That's obvious.
"Have I got faith in the strikers? Yes, of course I have. They're the only ones that I've got but that doesn't mean I don't have belief or faith in them. I have.
"What we've got to do is keep working hard on the training ground. That's the only thing we can do other than try and bring somebody else in. We're always looking but doing business in the loan market isn't as easy as people think."
