Sheffield United striker Oli McBurnie says the Blades are not scared of any Premier League team after their remarkable 3-3 draw with Manchester United this afternoon.

The Blades went 2-0 ahead against the 20-time English champions, before three goals in seven minutes put the visitors ahead.

McBurnie rose off the bench to score a late equaliser, which leaves the Blades sixth and extends their unbeaten league record to six games.

And the striker, a club-record summer signing from Swansea City, said after the game: “It reaffirms when we are at our best we can compete with anybody in this league.

"For 70 minutes we bossed it and had a shaky 15 minutes and they punished us, so we need to be on it for 90 minutes.

"We'e never going to be scared by anyone, especially at Bramall Lane - it's a horrible place to come. We're a joy to watch."
