Paul Heckingbottom believes Sheffield United going into April with a chance of automatic promotion and in the semi-finals of the FA Cup is “an unbelievable achievement” – but insists he is not content to simply stop there.

The Blades booked their place in the last four of the famous old cup competition after a dramatic victory over Championship rivals Blackburn Rovers at a raucous Bramall Lane. United twice fell behind to Rovers but dragged themselves level, before Tommy Doyle scored a stunning injury-time winner to send his side to Wembley.

United now go into the international break fighting for glory on two fronts, with Heckingbottom’s men second in the Championship table ahead of their next league encounter away at Norwich City.
