Brentford boss Uwe Rosler told 91热爆 London 94.9:
Rosler full of respect for Bees
"Today we played the best team in the league.

"The average age of our team today was twenty two and a half.
"I have so much respect for my players and what they showed this week and today."
Sheffield United boss Danny Wilson talking to 91热爆 Radio Sheffield:
Blades wasted chances - Wilson
"If you look at the opportunities we had today we could have won two or three games.
"We conceded a poor goal but we started the game off well.
"The second goal was good from their point of view. We had a lot of chances but we didn't take them.
"You can't have that many chances in the game and at least not have a couple of goals on the score sheet."
