Chris Wilder could hardly believe what he was seeing at a near sell-out Bramall Lane on his third return as manager. Having worked with his Sheffield United players for the best part of a week, there was little response. A 1-0 defeat to Charlton Athletic exposed all of the failings under sacked manager Ruben Selles as the rock-bottom Blades suffered their sixth straight Championship defeat.

Summary:

• United's disappointing performance against Charlton Athletic exposed a lack of cohesion.
• The Blades only managed a single shot on target.
• Chris Wilder expressed concern over the team's continual defensive lapses.
• The atmosphere fell flat, reflecting fans' frustration and disappointment.
