I think he’s slowed it down to often, I’d like to see him move the ball faster.

Maybe one of those games we put Mata on instead of GreenwoodI think Martial could change the game for us. Needs bringing on.
TouchAnother below par performance against Wolves. They get the tactical battle right every time
You are joking right? He has been absolutely useless. Not involved at all, defensively nor attacking.
Yes that's what he's told to do so the fullbacks can push on.I don't know what happens to us when play at home and more to the point, Wolves. Can't beat them playing this slow, need more movement and better passing from pretty much every player. Need to come out the first gear
He's only 20 too! We simply have to go all out and buy himWould be a suitable game for VDB and Mata, we need faster one touch football out there.
We better not Fecking bottle this tonight.That was brutal to watch. Playing at a snails pace.We’re not losing. They’re defending well. Our players are looking a bit knackered.
Constructively, what can we do?We are always like this against Wolves because they force you to have to use your midfield to createI fecking hate Wolves.Solid first half from wolves, limited us to just one chance, they park the bus well. when we attack and counter when they can... - we will need too speed up the passing the break them down. Wolves had a couple of decent counters too so need to watch that.
Haha, be realistic. Dave never comes out to collect the ball.We really miss Martials build up play against these deep defence
Our midfield isn’t the problem here, we’re free to play it up to their 30 yard area where we suddenly have no movement and the player on the ball becomes staticDefence playing ok
Need Fred in Midfield
Can’t see what Pogba does
Cavani should always come on as an impact sub in big games
Martial holds up the ball better than any other person up front and should come onFrustrating half. We haven't found a way through their defence at all. They've had a lot back quite a lot so easier said than done. Having said that I feel our passing isn't quite as crisp as it could be and that's certainly not helping. If we could find another gear in the second half it may be enough. Having said that we'd need to watch the counter as we've nearly been caught a few times.We are too ponderous on the ball, especially in our own half. Maguire takes ages to move around with it and he picks out Bailly or Matic right next to him on the line anyways. If Matic is dropping deep, who fills in midfield for him? Bruno stays up and Pogba doesn't make the movement, which means one of the wide players needs to drop in to receive a pass. Even when we do get the ball in their half, they've already closed down all passing lanes and our cheeky link-ups haven't worked out well so far - hence the crosses into the box.
Our midfield and our tempo just isn't working at the moment, and Ole needs to do something about it.
He just doesn’t fit in anywhere in this team.This will be decided by a defensive mistake.
Let's just hope it won't be ours.
Eric had one brainfart, so that's taken care of.
AWB was caught behind, that's chalked off.
David was sublime so far, except for the "staying in your goal line" incident.
Mason is our best attacker.
Rashford the first to be replaced hopefully, VDB or Martial on.
Pogba so far, useless. Zero influence.
I don't watch their other games because twice a year of being subjected to this is more than enough. I'm absolutely desperate for them (and Burnley who are the same shit in a different colour) to get relegated.Marcus isn’t half frustrating on times. When he plays like this, standing still with the he ball all the time it’s particularly annoying.
Made a couple of nice runs in the last few minutes but other than that he’s so static, especially out wide when he has about 10 yards to get some speed going before he’s close to offside. Make the run man, the space is there!
Jeez. What game are you watching? He’s been very safe. He also cleverly stopped Adama getting a run on him. No defender in the world would catch him
No way Rashford knew he was offside during his first touch.
It was a shit touch, he should do better.
It was 60-40Wolves do not allow us to counter and we are then mostly clueless to open them up. More runs into the box please and faster buildup.Thought we played pretty well, really need to be putting our chances away though.
Not really, no.
They should t be that tired, they haven’t started running yet!
Hasn't he with most of the top teams?Don't know why people expected anything else here. Wolves are one of the best organised teams in the league and in games like this are mourinhos Porto level of cynical and game killing. It's awful to watch and they're very good at doing it.
Were on top, but really look like a tactical shift is needed. Whatever the idea is, it's not working for pogba.
We've great options on bench, hopefully fatigue sets in for wolves and we capitalise. That's how you stay in a title race, find a way to win all sorts of games, using the squad.
Separately, and I hate saying this as I think he's one of the biggest talents at the club, but watching Greenwood is painful these days.Fecking hate playing this lotTelles, Rashford, and Cavani all need to come off.we should have a proper celebration at the Caf on the Wolves relegation dayVery slow. Still fancy United to win this one. Tiredness will come into play.We need to get Rashford/Greenwood isolated against their left back more often- Status
