Lots of Blades fans have been reacting to some rather amusing footage from striker Billy Sharp that emerged over the weekend.

Well I suppose this is one way to stay in ‘goal scoring form’ whilst the league continues to be on hiatus. Sharp is just the latest footballer to take part in the ‘Stay At Home Challenge’, a trend that is seeing many footballers from around the world try and come up with unique ways to keep themselves entertained until football comes back.

The 34-year-old Blades skipper got in on the act in his back garden, and he decided to get his son Leo involved as well, as the Blades social media team posted two videos of him messing around in the back garden.

What would you rather have?

Games start ASAP behind closed doors

Wait until fans are allowed into grounds

And Sheffield United fans on social media were quick to praise him for trying to keep fans spirits up during what is increasingly becoming a very boring time for football fans.

Although I’d still rather have real football than this stuff if I’m being totally honest.
