January presumably can’t come soon enough for administrator Chris Wilder, who has neglected to discover a fix or supplant O’Connell’s effect at the back.
A likely sentiment to tackle that issue, as indicated by The Athletic, could be Manchester United safeguard Marcos Rojo. The report guarantees that the Blades are set to focus on the Argentine in the January move window on an advance arrangement.

⚪ Only #NUFC have fewer shots & shots on target per game this season
🔴 Wilder adamant he will not change system
⚪ Strict wage structure of £30k p/wk stopped them signing summer targets📝 @RSooty73 & @AFHStewart

It isn’t a similar Sheffield United we seen last season that completed ninth in the Premier League, and it would appear that they’re managing a portion of the real world. The air pocket has well and really been blasted and a few people will call it second season disorder.
The Blades are presently the lower part of the Premier League and on only one point. With such a structure going into the merry period, fears of transfer are genuine. It’s a colossal drop based on what Wilder’s side indicated last season and their backs will be against the divider for the rest of the period at any rate.
Rojo is surplus to necessities at Old Trafford so he would be no misfortune in the event that he left in January. The sooner we get freed and sign a top-class community back the better.
