# Sheffield United: Billy Sharp praises John Egan following Burnley draw on Instagram

**Sheffield United are starting to find their [form](https://www.sufc.co.uk/matches/results/) which saw them climb into the top eight before football was postponed as they have beaten Tottenham 3-1 and drawn against Burnley in the last [week.](https://www.sufc.co.uk/matches/results/)**

They currently sit eighth and only four points behind Wolves in sixth, so they will still be hoping they can shock the league by finishing in the top six, per [BBC Sport.](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/table)

Veteran striker Billy Sharp made a great difference when he was subbed on as the Blades were [1-0 down](https://www.sofascore.com/burnley-sheffield-united/gsp) in the match at Turf Moor.

His impact was shown by the fact he provided the assist for John Egan’s equaliser and he posted on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/CCRL13ClzfP/) afterwards to discuss the game. He included a picture of him in the game and also praised Egan for his first goal in the division as he said, “Decent point in the end and delighted for [@johnegan92](https://www.instagram.com/johnegan92/) on his first Premier League goal.”

Fans will love the post as the fan favourite is praising the [£8.55m-valued](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/john-egan/profil/spieler/121324) Irishman, showing how good the morale is between the players and how close the squad is, which can only bode well for the rest of the campaign as they look to finish on a high.
