We look like a bunch of strangers playing together for the first time. We're second to every ball and our work rate is down. I can't see Garnacho coming out for the second half.

Cunha is a class playerSurprised by our lethargy.I think when Mount comes on in the second half we will play better.This is ridiculous.
Wolves are in disarray yet still look a better team than us.It's really strange, none of the posters could foresee that this setup is really unbalanced.
Mount is OK as a Bruno backup/rotation option (and DvB replacement), which is what I was hoping he was bought for. I don't think he'll getting many games in a midfield three with Bruno and Casemiro - Mount isn’t a #8 and isn’t suitable for that role in most games, aside from relegation fodder at home (which, to be fair, is probably what EtH was expecting here).We look a step slow which is so weird considering how much ETH was praising our fitness
That's a fairly wild exaggeration, we haven't been great but they haven't had a shot on target yetA lot of the Wolves players are strong and quick and our players seem to either overestimate their themselves or underestimate the opponent with the way they are getting dispossessed.
That's due to the quality of the players. How many times in a game do you see a City player mis-place a pass or lose possession through unforced error ? Compare it to how many times you see it for 45 mins in a half at United.
It’s the match day thread which should be a moment by moment opinion on the game, and we are playing shit at the moment…
Well this modern keeper thing was over emphasised then. Anyway it’s very early. Let’s wait and see after a few games.Rashford with everything to do on his ownThankfully, things can only get better in the second half.fecking hell this is DULL. Like those dreams where you have pillow fists. Can’t get going.
He is on the field, can't you see him? Number 7.Casemiro is a red waiting to happen if he is slow and getting into challenges like that.
I’m not seeing any footballDid we have a pre-season or was it a dream?We need Fred to run around a bit.
Oh wait
ten Hag ran Casemiro and Eriksen into the ground last season.
If he pulls the same shit this season with the lack of rotation he'll be in trouble.We are looking just like last season. No attacking threat whatsoever.
Also as we know Rashford isn't a striker so using him there doesn't help us or him
We’re fortunate that Wolves are very bad at scoring goals.Get Maguire on, we need 5 at the back!feck… they could have scored again
Hope he proves me wrong ….but think he’s going to have a shite season
Agreed.We win close to zero aerial balls.Well this has been absolutely awful so far.
Quite frankly I like the lack of sheer panic whenever the ball is in and around the boxMount will probably have an adaption period since it’s not a position we’ve played before pre-season. He takes up different spaces than we’re used to, I wouldn’t judge just yet.
May aswell if we play like this.We need another midfielderWe're pressing well high up the pitch, forcing Wolves into a lot of hoof-and-hopes. Problem is we're losing all our 50/50s and putting ourselves under pressure, and failing to find quality in the final third.Every single player losing their individual battle.Hope they all get a massive bollocking at HT, also the manager needs to give himself a little talking to. The whole Mount thing doesn’t make sense to me, we have zero midfield control.
We can't get the ball through midfield let alone to our front 3Shocking performance for 34 minutes. Just nothing out there, no one can pass, no one is moving.
Seeing posts like this is ironic because when there was links to us, it was overwhelmingly panned- Status
