Goals from Kean Bryan and Oli Burke sealed an unlikely victory at Old Trafford, taking the Blades’ points total up to eight after just a second three points of the season.
United remain bottom of the Premier League and 10 points from safety but with such a memorable victory under their belt, people are now questioning if Chris Wilder’s men really are down and out.
Of course, it’ll take a somewhat miracle for Wilder and co to overturn the situation but miracles are there to happen, aren’t they?

1. Everton - 1000/1
Carlo Ancelotti's men are closer to top-of-table Manchester City than they are to the relegation places. With 33 points from 18 games, it's safe to say Everton have no chance of being relegated, as reflected in the bookies' odds. Photo: Michael Regan
2. Arsenal - 1000/1
A few weeks ago, Arsenal's relegation odds would have been very, very different. However, five wins out of six games have propelled Mike Arteta's men up the table. Photo: Pool
3. West Ham United - 750/1
David Moyes' men are arguably the surprise package of the season. Heavily tipped for relegation at the beginning of the campaign but 20 games in, and they're in the top four. Photo: CLIVE ROSE
4. Southampton - 250/1
Ralph Hasenhuttl's side are another who have performed above expectations so far. After 19 games, they've already accumulated 29 points. Photo: FRANK AUGSTEIN
