The standing ovation he got when he made way for Matos, though, was well-earned and both he and United will hope this is just the beginning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/sheffield-united\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">Sheffield United<\/a> return for Tom Davies<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/the72.co.uk\/category\/sheffield-united\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">Sheffield United<\/a>\u00a0snapped up Davies two years ago to boost their midfield department.
