C. Wilderis: "We must finish the season, no matter how long it takes"

The current season of the English Premier League is currently suspended due to the outbreak of coronavirus, but the plan is to resume the competition at the end of April. Even if that doesn't happen, Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder is convinced that the season still needs to be completed sooner or later. "Players must maintain their physical fitness and be ready for the season to continue. I am confident they are taking care of themselves. My players have worked incredibly hard to achieve this result and play in the Premier League. They are very united. At first, I did not like the idea of playing the remaining matches behind closed doors, but now I believe that if this is the only way to finish the season, we will have to accept it. There can be no compromises. We must finish the season, no matter how long it takes. I do not agree with the idea of ​​ending the season and declaring winners and prize winners based on the current standings, although it would certainly not be a bad achievement for our team. The Premier League is a long race consisting of 38 rounds. Regardless of the advantage some teams may have now, this is a sport and anything can happen," - said C. Wilder in an interview with the Daily Mail. "Sheffield Utd" is currently in seventh place in the Premier League, but is only two points behind fifth place and has a match in hand.
