Chris Morgan says the pressure is certainly on Wednesday going into Sunday's vital Steel City derby at Hillsborough, but insists that nothing less than three points is acceptable for the Blades.

Morgan admits derbies hold a special place in his heart and that he relishes the atmosphere, meaning the Blades have one sole focus at the weekend, despite the Owls being in severe need of a win with relegation a real possibility:

"Derbies are always something to look forward to and Sunday will be no different - the lads have been building up for it all week.
"It was a big crowd earlier in the season at the Lane and by the sounds of things everybody has come out in force ready to see what happens.

"We know it is a massive game and for a change all the pressure is on them. Normally it seems to be on ourselves because we have always been the ones pushing for promotion.

"Saying that, we put pressure on ourselves and we owe it to the fans after losing to them twice last season which really hurt everyone. This year we can do the double over them and we certainly go to Hillsborough looking for the three points."

Playing for Sheffield United carries a weight of expectation that isn't always the norm elsewhere and Morgan aims to lead by example to finish off a frustrating year in the best possible style:

"When you play for this club you understand that there is always something to fight for at the end of the season, and that has been the case since I signed in 2003.

"We said before the Coventry game that we wanted to win our final four games to make sure we finished on a high note going into the summer.

"The defeat at Newcastle, coupled with other results elsewhere going against us, realistically ended our play-off hopes. Although it is mathematically still possible the best way for us to end the campaign would be by winning every game."
