Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder said there is no shame in their winless start to the Premier League campaign after Sunday's 1-1 draw with Fulham but the players must pull up their socks if they are to retain their place in the top flight.
The Blades, who finished ninth on their return to the Premier League last season, started the new term with four straight defeats and wasted numerous chances on Sunday as Fulham also claimed their first point of the season.
