Williams joined United permanently on 1 January 2012, signing a two-and-a-half-year contract on a free transfer.[11] Following his transfer, however, Williams rarely featured for the Blades and spent much of the following eighteen months sat on the side lines.[citation needed] With the arrival of new manager David Weir, Williams was restored to the starting line up for the opening matches of the 2013–14 season.[12]
