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.
