The former Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder moved to Sheffield United earlier this month.
New signing Lee Evans helped Sheffield United to only their second league win since mid November at Norwich City on Saturday. The former Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder spent the past six months on loan to Wigan Athletic, but seemed to have little trouble readjusting to Championship football.
United’s dip in form coincided with Paul Coutts’ absence to a broken leg, in which time John Lundstram was tasked with replicating the Scotsman’s high-quality performances.
But after seeing Evans in red and white for the very first time at Carrow Road, many Blades fans believe they have finally found the answer to their post-Coutts problems.
Here’s what they’re saying about their January arrival from Wolves on Twitter…
Evans wasn’t the only new recruit making his Sheffield United bow against Norwich, with Ryan Leonard and James Wilson – who had only appeared as a substitute beforehand – also sworn in by manager Chris Wilder.
Wilson put the Blades ahead early on, before Clayton Donaldson extended the visitors’ lead after the break.
Ivo Pinto halved the deficit, but it wasn’t enough to prevent United strengthening their grip on sixth place – where they sit 16 points behind Evans’ old side, Wolves.
