Sheffield United boss Neil Warnock believes his Premiership new-boys are being under-estimated by opposition managers.

Warnock has hit out at suggestions that the Blades play a direct style of football as they prepare to face Everton on Saturday on the back of a two-match unbeaten run.

"Even now I read things from people who are going to play against us saying they know what to expect - long-ball game, physical aspect," claimed Warnock. "Well they haven't seen us play for a few years.

"If the ball is there do my lads tackle? Too right they do. That is what the game is all about.

"But I have not seen anything untoward in my team and I'm happy with the way we are playing."
