Neil Warnock's dig at Barnsley's style after comparison is made to his promotion-winning Sheffield United side
and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
Second-half goals from Alex Mowatt and Daryl Dike secured a 2-0 win for the hosts, who have adopted a direct style of play under manager Valerien Ismael.
When asked about Barnsley by a Tykes reporter after the match, Warnock said: “They deserve everything they get for the maximum amount of running that they’re doing but I don’t think my lads would enjoy playing in the team. I don’t think Paddy McNair would fit in or Grant Hall, or Jonny Howson.

When it was put to him that his Sheffield United side would build on that collective desire and spirit, Warnock added: “My Sheffield United side, I’m not being funny, I think Chris Morgan looked like Beckenbauer in comparison to theirs.
“They don’t think about anything but hoofing it straight away do they, there’s no bringing it down and trying to play.
“I think my Sheffield United team had a bit more than that, (Phil) Jagielka and people like that.
