Robson challenge for Blades
28 Nov 2007 - 10:07:33
Bryan Robson wants his Sheffield United players to believe they can win promotion after Tuesday's 3-0 victory over Charlton Athletic.
The Blades moved up to 13th place in the Championship table courtesy of goals from James Beattie, Gary Cahill and Chris Armstrong at The Valley.
But following an indifferent start to the campaign, Robson now wants his pre-season promotion favourites to perform on a more consistent basis.
He said: "I thought that was a really good, hard-working away performance and I got a response from my players after Saturday's defeat to Plymouth.
"Charlton were in good form and this is always difficult place to come and win matches, but once we got the second goal it killed the game.
"We need consistency now. The players need to start believing in themselves. We have done well against team right up in the league.
"If we can do as well against teams lower in the league then we should be doing better in this division."
