Sharp was on the books of Leeds during the 2014-15 season, but he failed to make an impact at Elland Road and returned to the Blades in the summer of 2015.

been crying out for Sharp to be back in starting 11. Proved me right today, Blackman outstanding, Stearman also once again who i had my doubts about. Have to say what a signing Lee Evans is, answer to Paul Coutts? #sufc #twitterblades

Another one Billy Sharp not good enough for #lufc but makes the difference for #sufc think we have some of that sort in the current set up still repeat mistakes and poor clearing of the lines cost us backing PH to make us better though

Some positive stuff at today’s game unlucky to not get a point. You’d think that a member of the coaching staff would of taught Sacko how to cross the ball, #LUFC ps: why did we sell Billy Sharp?
