RUBEN SELLES confessed Sheffield United fans may already feel it’s time he “f***ed off” after just three games.

Selles, 42, said: “We know how it works and I can ask the fans to be calm. But they are going to tell me, probably, to ‘f*** off’.
“But we are going to be honest, we are going to work hard, we are going to persist in what we do, and we are going to give it 100 per cent.
