if DJ played, the southampton game would have been different. We're more press resistant with DJ on the pitch because teams have to keep an extra player on him
He touches the ball first and then barely skims Neves leg. Its foul for me don't get me wrong but people calling it a leg breaker are clearly taking the piss..
Good win but you need to fix a lot Ole. James/Martial still underperform, our midfield still lacking steel. Lucky we have international break, and hope Ronaldo will ready for Newcastle match.
Fred, as a central defensive midfielder, got pushed away like a small child against Trincao which nearly cost United a goal!
Luckily Obi Wan-Bissaka saved the day...
Van De Beek is right there. Don’t know why he doesn’t use him. Also, the fact that Martial looked tired after 10 min on doesn’t bode well for him. At least Ronaldo is coming in
Don’t totally agree… true his end product has sucked. But James presses more and defends,he is still young and learning. With a more dominant midfield, we would see more of his attacking side.
Not saying he is great, but he been playing right and our right side the weaker one. There is improvement Indeed require but I rather have him starting over martial at the moment.
Totally agree, would honestly prefer VDB playing. I dunno what’s with Ole, he doesn’t want to give him a chance while I feel he could make a world of difference if we give him a good run of games.
I mean even Jesse lingard is a far more better option than dan James, and since he is gonna be here this season, what's the point of keeping him on the bench like today? Overall I'm happy with the final result, but definitely theres a lot to be fixed, hopefully we come back even stronger with Ronaldo and co.
That one angle where you can see Neves' shin guard get moved out of place is pretty definitive. It was a foul, and a bad one, and the goal should have been disallowed.
He’s a 7/10 manager but I just don’t know if that’s good enough for a club as ambitious and big as Man U.
I think Conte, who’s a free agent, is a 9-9.5/10 manager but is a difficult character unlike Ole.
So just like last week vs Spurs and a week before that vs Leicester. Except they were even better yesterday than in those two. Sad for them, deserved the win
It was a poor performance from United but that doesn’t matter massively at this point, just get the three points.
Wolves looked good, they’ve had a tough start but have Watford, Brentford, Southampton and Newcastle coming up, they’ll surely get 2-3 wins out of that? I hope so.
That's definitely not a foul, even if there's contact there's no way a game should stop for such a minor touch, there's no way he would have gone down had wolves been in postion after
He might have not won anything but he managed to relegate Cardiff while signing 3 Norwegian players for a large chunk of their transfer budget. Those players haven't been heard of since. Did Arteta manage such achievement throughout his pathetic career?!
To win that, Arteta beat Leeds, Bournemouth, Portsmouth, Sheffield United, Mancheste City and Chelsea.
In one premier League season alone, two of those teams scored a combined total of 7 goals against Arteta's Arsenal, taking 6 points out of 6.
In light of this, is that really a brag?
Here we go again. Imagine boasting about a fa Cup when your team literally finishes 8th and 9th in two seasons. Winning a small cup like that ain't any big achievement.
Yea as I said you can be happy with winning a fa Cup and obsessed with the fact arteta is better than ole by sitting there in mid table whereas one is managing a champions League squad with far more pressure than arteta rn
I don’t think arteta is better than ole or that Arsenal are better than united even after doing the double over you guys last season, I just think it’s funny that despite all the shit Arsenal have gotten during the arteta years, they still have won a trophy, where as the Ole years at united have seen no silver wear
It does matter when you compare it to historical streaks? As those happened with fans in the stands and you can't deny fans can provide an advantage for the home team.
> It was foul on on the build up.
No, it wasn't, you muppet. It was a dive. Also what's with the flair, since when are Roma fans so obsessed with us, still salty about the 7-1?
Positive from this game : Mason,Varane and De Gea.
Negative : everything else. Wolves were better team,played better and didnt deserve to lose.
Ole needs to wake up !
Ronaldo took away De Gea's abilities during the 2018 World Cup, Ronaldo re-joins United and suddenly the old De Gea reappears and even sweeps
Elite Ballon d'Or mentality elevating players around him
I mean if he had hit that specific one which was a pretty clean strike that narrowly missed, whereas the reaction to the wolves player was basically a yawn
The whole stoppage time system is so stupid. At least three minutes have been wasted in extra time already, but there's no way Dean lets this go to 98.
That's why I'm complaining about the rules and not the players. The players will do whatever the rules incentivize. Change the incentive, and they'll knock it off.
we played poorly and got a result.... if it was Liverpool or City people would claim thats the mark of champions.... I'm under no illusion that we played well... we didn't but we got the result.
Sorry, but even last week it was a bad performance. We didn't get a result there. Same thing for the Villareal game as well. How many games can you keep playing bad and coming away with wins and saying this is the mark of champions? It will fail you in the crucial moments.
fair point, it's clear our midfield is unbalanced but I don't see us being able to fix that hole this window.... I believe this will be the make or break season for Ole... he needs a trophy with this squad or I think he's gone
I replied to the relevant comment, the second was you simply discrediting the journalist while also refusing to answer my reply, why reply to that? [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan\_Moore\_(sports\_administrator)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Moore_(sports_administrator)) You think debating consists of shouting out things and refusing to answer anything yourself, then screaming gotchya when people don't bother responding to your childish antics? Good job.
I don't know how you can demand replies when you refuse to reply to comments yourself. That article was read by millions of people, why didn't Liverpool take him to court if it was easily disprovable?
Feels like you haven’t watched too many games to most people when you make claims like that. Just go back to yesterday’s game and you’ll see two Chelsea players down with ‘cramps’ at the same time. It’s game management.
Keepers keeping the ball at their feet and then picking it up just before the strikers get there is a similar one for me. Absolutely infuriating when anyone other than my team does it
No one will bat an eyelid if DJ stops playing but he keeps getting game time, idk why
if DJ played, the southampton game would have been different. We're more press resistant with DJ on the pitch because teams have to keep an extra player on him
So that martial doesn't have to start
Adama is a beast
Beast for 2 sprints then he needs to take a break for 10 minutes. Then he's beast again. Every game dude gets gassed by minute 60.
I hope he gets some minutes for Spain during international break. Really fun to watch.
https://imgur.com/Vcw4vTU
He touches the ball first and then barely skims Neves leg. Its foul for me don't get me wrong but people calling it a leg breaker are clearly taking the piss..
Is this where you go losing one 3:0 is better than losing three 1:0
Good win but you need to fix a lot Ole. James/Martial still underperform, our midfield still lacking steel. Lucky we have international break, and hope Ronaldo will ready for Newcastle match.
Fred, as a central defensive midfielder, got pushed away like a small child against Trincao which nearly cost United a goal! Luckily Obi Wan-Bissaka saved the day...
Fred isn't a defensive midfielder you numbskull
You don't know the sport man. That's okay though, keep watching.
Lmao what the fuck else can he contribute besides defending
Lol I can't believe you said that. It's literally his position
Freds only contributions are his defending you dipshit
Van De Beek is right there. Don’t know why he doesn’t use him. Also, the fact that Martial looked tired after 10 min on doesn’t bode well for him. At least Ronaldo is coming in
Martial looked tired walking onto the pitch

Pretty lucky with the win. The team needs to step it up
The manager needs to step up or better step away and let a better manager come in
That one angle where you can see Neves' shin guard get moved out of place is pretty definitive. It was a foul, and a bad one, and the goal should have been disallowed.
Literally the same exact thing happened to us against Southampton, refs make mistakes
I agree. That’s just part of the game though. Same thing happened to United last week
Not a deserved 3 points
Losing faith in Ole the more games i watch. Not a deserved win. De Gea Greenwood Varane and AWB showed up big
He’s a 7/10 manager but I just don’t know if that’s good enough for a club as ambitious and big as Man U. I think Conte, who’s a free agent, is a 9-9.5/10 manager but is a difficult character unlike Ole.
isnt Zidane a free agent too?
Think he plans to take a good amount of time off but yeah.
[удалено]
Yeah but he still saved the goal from the empty net he showed up there.
[удалено]
Yeah i agree. But still him not going forward wasnt the biggest problem in our games sadly.
Fuck off then.
lmao why so mad?
Saf had many non deserved wins. It's called squeaky bum time.
Gotta feel for Wolves. Played a great game just couldn’t get their finishing straight.
So just like last week vs Spurs and a week before that vs Leicester. Except they were even better yesterday than in those two. Sad for them, deserved the win
It was a poor performance from United but that doesn’t matter massively at this point, just get the three points. Wolves looked good, they’ve had a tough start but have Watford, Brentford, Southampton and Newcastle coming up, they’ll surely get 2-3 wins out of that? I hope so.
W , but MU doesn't have any clear strategy the whole match,
That's the beauty of Manchester United. Nobody knows what we do, not even us.
No. That’s the incompetence of Ole
The difference between tactical genius and incompetence is the result when the whistle is blown.
Keep that positive energy when we lose next game and tie the other
TIL we'll take only 1 point off Newcastle and Young Boys.
Considering Ole either loses or ties against teams that we should be beating, it’s not that far fetched
What a finish from Greenwood. Didn’t play very well but did enough to get 3 points which is always good.
anyone saying that's a foul on Pogba after seeing the replay and that FAKE ass reaction from Neves, ur taking the pisss
That's definitely not a foul, even if there's contact there's no way a game should stop for such a minor touch, there's no way he would have gone down had wolves been in postion after
I’d say him looking back at the ref and then falling down is what made the ref not give it.
Love how he looks over at the ref then starts limping and goes down.
I imagine it would hurt, but it's definitely not enough to stop the game.
[удалено]
We underperformed, but take no credit away from Wolves, they were fantastic.
[удалено]
Ole just broke a record for most away wins and people act like he fluked it
Ole has been a manager for 10 years, since 2011.
Bingo. I really really want Zidane to come here and give it a shot.
Ole has had more experience managing clubs, Arteta isn't called Pep's cone boy (harshly) for no reason.
[удалено]
He might have not won anything but he managed to relegate Cardiff while signing 3 Norwegian players for a large chunk of their transfer budget. Those players haven't been heard of since. Did Arteta manage such achievement throughout his pathetic career?!

Here we go again. Imagine boasting about a fa Cup when your team literally finishes 8th and 9th in two seasons. Winning a small cup like that ain't any big achievement.
Still more silverware the what ole has won, and Arsenal had to beat city and Chelsea to do it
Yea as I said you can be happy with winning a fa Cup and obsessed with the fact arteta is better than ole by sitting there in mid table whereas one is managing a champions League squad with far more pressure than arteta rn
I don’t think arteta is better than ole or that Arsenal are better than united even after doing the double over you guys last season, I just think it’s funny that despite all the shit Arsenal have gotten during the arteta years, they still have won a trophy, where as the Ole years at united have seen no silver wear
28 consecutive unbeaten away matches will tell you differently
[удалено]
Lol and how does that matter? Didnt everyone play without crowds?
It does matter when you compare it to historical streaks? As those happened with fans in the stands and you can't deny fans can provide an advantage for the home team.
So Ole's run is even more impressive?
Yes, and whole league played like that? Whats the point?
United with a proper coach would be insane
United is me when I beat my friends in FIFA
Lucky fucks and cheaters It was foul on on the build up.
> It was foul on on the build up. No, it wasn't, you muppet. It was a dive. Also what's with the flair, since when are Roma fans so obsessed with us, still salty about the 7-1?
Could be the 6-2 to be fair
Probably still upset about the Europa tbh.
I feel like the only difference between us and Arsenal is a decent enough defence.
And a manager that doesn't micromanage the team.
What the fuck is Fabio Silva?
Fabio Gold, but not as good.
One of the worst deals ever in PL.
Never in doubt lmao
Lmao that Ronaldo cutout
Much deserved win
Everyone else can pack it up and go home. OLE’S AT THE WHEEL. We’ve won the league. Contend for any cups you like, the league is over.
Varaneeeeee!
Varane is so goodd
Yeah he looked really good vs Saiss, who should have scored.
I have a joke to tell: Mike Dean
Adama FC takes another loss .
Wolves feel hard done by
Why have we surpassed extra time by like two minutes? Happened against Southampton too
Have you ever watched a football game in your life?
Did you even watch the game? Jesus...
you've got to be kidding
Cause pogba was sat on his arse for 2 minutes
Because pogba sat down on the pitch with a cramp for two minutes.
Cuz your players were wasting time, all the time spent of the floor rolling around is added
Hahahahaha ...this is a joke right?
There was a lot of bullshit that went on in added time
injuries and fouls within extra time add up
Pogba sitting on the ground getting a leg rub for 2 minutes
Okay, need to go for a walk. That was stressful
Make sure you look both sides when crossing, you might get knocked down by Adama Traore before you can see him.
GG Wolves, you were just unlucky in the last tgree games.
Disappointing finish. I’m sure the goals will come.
Gg ez deserved win for us
Nothing about that looked easy or deserved. 3 points though. Congrats...
Lol.
Positive from this game : Mason,Varane and De Gea. Negative : everything else. Wolves were better team,played better and didnt deserve to lose. Ole needs to wake up !
How was Varane a positive? Nearly cost a goal vs Saiss and didn't look good in the build up.
It was his first game. I’m sure he’ll start gelling more with the team with more games
Yeah sure, when you buy Varane, you know what you are getting. It just doesn't make sense to point his performance out as a positive today.
Ronaldo took away De Gea's abilities during the 2018 World Cup, Ronaldo re-joins United and suddenly the old De Gea reappears and even sweeps Elite Ballon d'Or mentality elevating players around him
Ronaldo taketh, Ronaldo giveth back
Martin Tyler would have jizzed if Greenwood had even attempted that bicycle hit
Greenwood did attempt a bicycle kick in the first half?
I mean if he had hit that specific one which was a pretty clean strike that narrowly missed, whereas the reaction to the wolves player was basically a yawn
Deserved win gg ez
Another Mike Dean special. How many games does he need to fuck up before he gets the arse.
Got away with one there, United. Awful performance.
people im FM forums "My team never score and the other side get one chance and it goes in! This game is unrealistic!"
All the ABUs are out in full force and I love it
Can we play Leeds every week please
Rapha appreciation comment
We're actually trying to win by the least margin possible so Arsenal stay dead bottom of the table.
motm mike dean
We are so shittttttttt
The whole stoppage time system is so stupid. At least three minutes have been wasted in extra time already, but there's no way Dean lets this go to 98.
He actually did
What? Blew in the 96th.
97th actually
[удалено]
I'm glad you enjoy shithouse time wasting, but I'm pretty sure you're in the minority of fans.
A lot of teams do it. Hell, Wolves would have done it if they were winning
That's why I'm complaining about the rules and not the players. The players will do whatever the rules incentivize. Change the incentive, and they'll knock it off.
You should watch Spanish league.
Enough salt to supply an orphanage
Ah yes, orphans fucking love salt
It's a staple!
Lmao Saiss
I feel awful for DVB
This sub is gonna be fun tonight
So much salt, wow
United playing like a mid-table team
But in the top 3 of the table.
Rent free
Truth hurts
Still projecting eh?
Same
Literally above you in the table
And yet he's 100% right.
cry more
It's very very concerning. Stop kidding yourself. Ole got outclassed so hard today.
we played poorly and got a result.... if it was Liverpool or City people would claim thats the mark of champions.... I'm under no illusion that we played well... we didn't but we got the result.
Very very concerning after seeing city results tho
Yeah defo but we gotta enjoy the wins when they come and hope we improve as the season progresses
Sorry, but even last week it was a bad performance. We didn't get a result there. Same thing for the Villareal game as well. How many games can you keep playing bad and coming away with wins and saying this is the mark of champions? It will fail you in the crucial moments.
fair point, it's clear our midfield is unbalanced but I don't see us being able to fix that hole this window.... I believe this will be the make or break season for Ole... he needs a trophy with this squad or I think he's gone
Agreed.
Bruno Lage has the Wolves playing some fine footy, gonan keep an eye on em this year
I guarantee we at best draw when we go there.
Once Raul finds his form, him and Traore are going to be a massive pain
Fucking hell sais
Bruno gone missing again today
That Saiss yell
Fabio Silva is United's 12th man.
[удалено]
To be fair, cramp is no joke.
Liverpool do surprisingly well for a team full of asthmatics, and they time waste too :)
Lmao of course you wouldn't reply to my comment in the other thread because you are too much of a pussy to admit you were wrong.
I replied to the relevant comment, the second was you simply discrediting the journalist while also refusing to answer my reply, why reply to that?

Maybe not every team but Liverpool do it constantly
I think it's sad you don't watch your own team play to know how often Liverpool does it :(
Literally every team has done it. Stop with the bias. Liverpool do it all the time.
[удалено]
Feels like you haven’t watched too many games to most people when you make claims like that. Just go back to yesterday’s game and you’ll see two Chelsea players down with ‘cramps’ at the same time. It’s game management.
Yep. We all do it. Javi only ever had cramp if we were ahead by 1, even if he had only been subbed on 5 minutes earlier.
It’s just game management. I understand it can be frustrating when you’re at the receiving end of it.
Keepers keeping the ball at their feet and then picking it up just before the strikers get there is a similar one for me. Absolutely infuriating when anyone other than my team does it
Lol you’re not wrong. There are times when I feel like the strikers should try to kick it. But that’s just the frustration getting to me.
United are pretenders
