    Not a shock to me, look at some of their previous results,

    Arsenal 2 Sheff U 1
    Liverpool 2 Sheff U 1
    Sheff U 0 City 1
    Sheff U 1 Leicester 2
    Sheff U 2 United 3
    Sheff U 0 Everton 1

    They were in all those games, against the best in the league, with a chance of a result, right up to the final whistle. In that context why is United 1 Sheff U 2 a shock, it was the sort of result that was bound to happen sooner or later. Look at today's result City 1 Sheff U 0, 180 plus minutes this season against City and they've conceded just 2 goals.

    The league table might not lie, but it can mislead, you need to delve a little bit deeper over your cornflakes in the morning, instead of just a superficial glance at the bottom of the table, then you get fewer shocks to the system.
