PLAYER RATINGS: Noni Madueke stars for an abject Chelsea as they're held at Sheffield United… with three Blues stars scoring just 5/10

Oli McBurnie's stoppage time goal gave Sheffield United a point against an abject Chelsea team at Bramall Lane.  

Thiago Silva came into a changed defensive line-up for the visitors, and rewarded Mauricio Pochettino's faith by opening the scoring with a volley from a corner after 11 minutes.

However, the Blades equalised just after the half-hour mark, when Jayden Bogle made a precise strike past Dorde Petrovic in the Chelsea goal. 

Noni Madueke cut inside after receiving a pass from Cole Palmer, and dispatched a left-footed strike into the Blades' net, but the Blues couldn't hold on, with McBurnie getting a draw for the Blades three minutes into stoppage time. 

Here's MailSport's match ratings after Sheffield United 2-2 Chelsea: 

Chelsea (4-2-3-1)

Dorde Petrovic - 5 - Not tested very often, but not able to stop Bogle's first-half goal, or McBurnie's stoppage time equaliser.

Axel Disasi - 5 - Moved to right-back in Pochettino's changed defence, but not able to make much of a difference. 

Thiago Silva - 6.5 - Got the nod over Badiashile, and proved his selection by scoring a volley after 11 minutes from Gallagher's corner. 

Trevoh Chalobah - 5.5 - Booked in the first half for a high boot, but otherwise solid in the centre of a change defence.

Marc Cucurella - 5.5 - Relatively untroubled at the right-hand side of the defence, until he made a cynical late challenge and got booked for his troubles. 

Moises Caicedo - 5 - Made a key block to deny Brereton Diaz a golden opportunity to equalise, but otherwise struggled. 

Enzo Fernandez - 6 - Another solid but not spectacular in the heart of the Chelsea team.

Cole Palmer - 6.5 - Made another of his customary contributions to the Chelsea side by turning provider for Madueke, before being replaced by Chukwuemeka.

Conor Gallagher - 6 - His corner-kick found Silva unmarked in the middle of the box, in a rare highlight for the Blues star.

Noni Madueke - 7.5 - Came in for Mudryk in the Blues attacking line, and proved to be a star man, getting Chelsea's second goal. Replaced by the Ukrainian late on.

Nicolas Jackson - 6 - The Senegalese striker was not able to do much up front, and was replaced by Casadei in stoppage time. 

Substitutes: Chukwuemeka (for Palmer 74') - 6 -Brought on for Palmer, but not able to effect much of a change. 

Mudryk (for Madueke 82') 

Badiashile (for Cucurella 90') 

Casadei (for Jackson 90') 

Subs (not used): Bettinelli, Sharman-Lowe, Sterling, Washington, Gilchrist 

Manager: Mauricio Pochettino - 6.5 - Not a dominant Blues performance, and maybe would have been lucky to have got back-to-back wins.
