Sheffield United striker Luton Shelton has been backed by former Manchester United and Celtic striker Henrik Larsson to be a big hit at Bramall Lane.

Shelton, 21 signed from Swedish outfit Helsingborgs in a £1,850,000 in during the January transfer window and made his debut at the Reebok Stadium on 31 March as the Blades lost 1-0 to Bolton Wanderers.

And, former strike partner Henrok Larsson said; "I believe he can make a real impression. He's a nightmare for defenders."

Well, Sheffield has 4 or 5 games to pull themselves out of relegation. So, if they know what's good for them, they would play the "nightmare" and stay in the EPL.

I cannot see why him not playing. Is not like they scoring alot of goals. Yet .. he wasn't even among the subs on Saturday.

I assume he will feature in there next game as I read an article that stated he completed his first full 90 minutes for the reserve squad against Bolton reserves.
