Sheffield Wednesday fans are reacting to Sam Winnall’s display against Sheffield United Under-23s on Tuesday.

Winnall returned to contention in late December following a long-term lay-off, and appeared four times as a substitute during the temporary reigns of Lee Bullen and Steve Agnew.

But the 28-year-old last appeared in a matchday squad more than a month ago, and continues to be overlooked by the new Owls manager, Steve Bruce.
