That was pretty decent from United, who are now two points behind Chelsea in fourth place; Blades stay eighth.

Full-time: Manchester United 3-0 Sheffield United
90+3'
Neville then notes that possession plays a huge role in summer football, at tournaments, say, and that's been a huge advantage for United.
90+3'
Gary Neville names his man of the match and it's ... Anthony Martial!
90+1'
This is dying a death.
90'
There'll be three added minutes.
90'
Villa have equalised at Newcastle.
90'
Jesse Lingard didn't even make the bench for this. It's looking increasingly like he's done at United.
89'
Shaw burrows down the left and flips a decent ball into Ighalo, whose first touch takes it away from him, allowing Moore to narrow the angle and force him away.
88'
Pogba is top of the chances created table with four. He had a decent game, and will get better when Solskjaer finds the right man behind him and they have a chance to settle.
86'
Gary Neville says Matic has provided control, and he's got a different view of the game to me - he's not looking at his fingers for one thing - but my appraisal is that United have dominated because of the players in front of Matic, and when Blades had their little patch, it was possible partly because Matic doesn't have the legs to cover the width of the pitch.
86'
More United possession, but of the slow, matter of principle variety.
83'
More time elapses.

Blades have a shot, Fleck lashing from distance; De Gea saves easily.
81'
Not much going on here.

Five changes for United - is that a record? Martial, Pogba, Fernandes, Greenwood, Rashford go off; McTominay, Mata, Pereira, Ighalo, James come on.

I feared that Blades might take one here, and if United are minded to, they might well.

HAT-TRICK GOAL! WHAT A GOAL! Manchester United 3-0 Sheffield United (Martial) Pogba into Fernandes, whose brilliant flick finds Martial. He slides left to Rashford, who might go for Shaw overlaping but instead caresses a gorgeous return pass that Martial collects, drawing Moore and then scooping over him as he dives. Brilliant move, brilliant finish, brilliant hat-trick - Martial's first in senior football.
74'
It's probably reached a point with him. I'm sure he's received plenty of support, but it might now be time for an ultimatum: be better or be number two.
