Sheffield United: 'I can still make an impact on Blades season' insists striker Ched Evans
The Welsh international striker played the full game as United’s under-23s lost 2-0 to their Wednesday counterparts from across the city, after going under the knife to clean up a long-standing ankle issue.
And the 29-year-old, who has made 10 appearances in his second spell at Bramall Lane so far after rejoining the Blades in the summer, said: “There’s time for me to still make an impact, definitely.

“It’s just about biding my time now and being prepared to wait for that chance.
“All the lads in the squad have had a chance now, and I had 30 minutes in the FA Cup against Preston too and feel like I did okay.
“We’ve got another cup game soon against Leicester and maybe I’ll get a few more minutes in that. But, overall, I’m just really pleased with how my recovery has gone so far.”
