Sheffield United's Ryan Flynn hails Chris Morgan

Sheffield United midfielder Ryan Flynn has hailed caretaker manager Chris Morgan.

Morgan has been in temporary charge of the Blades since last week when David Weir was sacked following a disappointing start to the League One campaign.

"He is brilliant," Flynn told reporters at a press conference.

"He is a top man and hopefully we will be able to do the job for him (win against Port Vale on Saturday).

"He is a leader and commands so much respect. He has been brilliant for us and has given us a huge lift."

United are currently at the bottom of the table with five points from 11 matches.
