The on loan Sheffield United goalkeeper enjoyed a problem free evening against Sheffield Wednesday on Friday.

Sheffield United’s Dean Henderson has ‘liked’ a tweet by a Sheffield Wednesday supporter mocking the Blades manager, Chris Wilder.

Speaking to Sky Sports after United were held to 0-0 draw by Wednesday on Friday evening, Wilder argued his side had dominated that of their rivals, which contained players ‘on 40-grand a week’.

That saw Wilder labelled ‘bitter’ by Owls fan Gaz, who advised the 51-year-old to ‘move to a bigger club’, where he could afford his own high wage earners.

And Henderson appeared to respond positively to that on Twitter, although it is probable the goalkeeper on loan from Manchester United did so accidentally.

Sheffield United enjoyed the bulk of the possession against their struggling city rivals, although one saved penalty aside the hosts did little to trouble Cameron Dawson in the Sheffield Wednesday goal.

For all their lavish spending in recent years, Wednesday’s XI Bramall Lane contained four free signings (Ashley Baker, Jordan Thorniley, Barry Bannan and Steven Fletcher), three bought for less than £1 million (Tom Lees, Morgan Fox and Joey Pelupessy), two academy graduates (Dawson and Matt Penney) and one loanee (Michael Hector).
