Well I hope you’ve all woken up after that game yesterday.
Not exactly the most thrilling that the Premier League has ever given us was it? But in the grand scheme of things in the chase for European football, it keeps things nicely poised and ensures we’re still in the hunt.
One man who was instrumental to the Blades grabbing that point was defender John Egan, who had an impact at both ends of the pitch, winning 8 of his 13 aerial duels (second-most of any player on the park), completing 73% of his passes and getting on the end of Billy Sharp’s flicked header to smash home the equaliser.
Is John Egan our most important player?
Yes
No
So when @The_Bladesman asked fans on social media who they felt should take home the Man of the Match honours, there was only really one person that was going to take that distinction.
Egan, needed that goal. Osborn and Didzy class again too

Egan because of the importance of the goal on the team's morale

Egan. Osborn and McGoldrick worth a shout too

What about you? Do you think that Egan deserved the award? Or should it have gone to someone else?
