    Wolves are a very good side, this is not a bad result at all if it stays a draw.

    Not much in their performance today screams 'very good side' tbh, painfully average, snide fouling cnuts, pulled through by a moment of brilliance by Neves.
     
    Decent result but really should have won. Ridiculous Arsenal-like decision to have Pogba taking the penalty. That’s the 4th he’s missed now.
    That's where managers have to manage. There should be a penalty taker and it is madness to allow serial misser Pogba to take it.
     
    He's become a walking, talking, TalkSport.
    fecking pathetic. He gives all the bullshit
    About sticking together and protecting the players and goes and does that. Utterly fuming.
     
    Wtf is wrong with Gary Neville?

    Rashford himself said there’s no set taker.

    He’s giving our players no protection in the media he’s a fecking joke. Get behind pogba ffs

    Did he mentioned jlingz at all?
     
    Has Pogba been played in a functional midfield setup throughout 2019? Not for me, he was at his best when Herrera provided the stability for him to push further forward and create.

    Pogba played deep in a two with a lack of support and runs around him, like today & throughout last season, of course he would look out of sorts. Anyone would. He can't do it all on his own.

    He can't do it all on his own? He is poor and puts us in more danger throughout the game, outweighing his positives. We can each have our opinions and I'm not saying we should get rid as we would be even worse. He just isn't a player who we should bend over for next summer. Get a fee, let him go and replace him.

    Plenty of midfielders have played football in a 2 man midfield. Some would call it three man anyway just with a no 10 instead of a DM. He gets £300k a week he should be able to play in any setup.
     
    Have you heard him on Sky Sports? First thing he has said is berate Pogba for taking the penalty. He doesn't understand why he took it in the first place he said. Even though Rashford himself explained last week that whoever wins the pen can take it.
    Yeah and I agree with him. I think it’s a daft system.
     
    Jesus what's Neville on about? Upset because his golden boy didn't take the pen. Pogba won the penalty and was our taker last season. Described it as despicable from Pogba. Idiot.

    Disappointing not to win but we look a better team than last season. We are on the right track. Nobody beats Wolves in their place. It's a decent result.

    Gary is a Sky lackey
    Gary the lackey
     
    Well obviously and rightfully so, Rashford should have took the pen and I bet Ole will be furious.
    Wait a sec, why did Rashford take the pen off pogba last week? Pogba should be disgusted and annoyed.
     
    We should have won that. Definitely two points dropped. They had a good 10 minute spell in that 2nd half which they got the equaliser from. TBF it was a very good strike. The penalty miss is really fecking annoying. Why did Pogba take it when Rashford scored from the spot last week?

    Overall if you offered me 4 points from our opening two games, I’d have taken it. But it’s just so damn annoying to draw that game when we were on top throughout barring a 10 minute spell in that 2nd half!
     
    We lack strength in depth. Pereira and Mata are weak subs
    There should be no Mata against Wolves, especially when you haveMason. Also making two subs on 89th minute hoping to overwhelm your opposition is a bit naive, particularly taking into account the fact the other team is stronger physically than you are.
     
    Well obviously and rightfully so, Rashford should have took the pen and I bet Ole will be furious.
    Doubt Ole will be 'furious' when it has been decided between them beforehand. Pogba happened to miss this time, big deal. Here comes the fury vs Pogba though.
     
    Oh, one more thing I need to get out of my system. Adama fecking Traore. Absolute dogshit player, Championship quality at best, yet we make him look like Ronaldinho. Need to stop with that!
     
    Our control of this game has been impressive, nullified the Wolves counter so far haven't given them any time on the ball. If we had better quality in attack we would be winning this nicely. Good tactical setup by Ole so far

    Ole got his tactics spot on. Lack of attacking quality has cost him, Lingard and James need upgrading
     
    I really had the feeling Pogba was going to miss and it actually made me angry to see him claiming it.
     
    What that it was a despicable decision by Pogba that Ole will be furious about? Despite Rashford explaining the penalty situation on the channel Gary Neville is employed by and was working for, a massive eight days ago?
    I understand the system they’re using. My point is that it’s bloody stupid.
     
    Better result than the last 2 gaves v Wolves. Better play too, next 4 games are winnable and I fancy us against Arsenal too. But James and Lingard off the bench please and I think Fred will have a place in Midfield when he's fully fit.
     
    Two dropped points in my view.
    What is the story with our penalty taker? Needs sorting Ole.
    We lack creativity, Lingard useless as a 10.
    James has a lot to learn.
    Disappointing .
     
    Yeah and I agree with him. I think it’s a daft system.
    Thats not what he's saying though. He's not saying he doesn't agree with it, he hasn't acknowledge the system. He is wording it like Pogba had no right to take the penalty. That is just clear nonsense.

    He’s missed 4 penalties in 12 months there shouldn’t even be a debate he shouldn’t be anywhere near taking one.

    ‘Bid deal’ fecking hell.

    There should be a set taker though and that’s the managers call. Blame Pogba for missing it but OGS carries the can here, there should be clarity from the top as to who takes it.

    Why would Rashford not take it ? Two goals at the weekend of which one was a superbly taken penalty, best player on the pitch in the first half and his confidence must have been sky high.

    Ridiculous that Ole left it open to debate. Tail wagging the dog.
     
    Happy that this game is over. We look so slow in the buildup still. So many simple errors from the lads.
    Ole needs to rethink the midfield, we can do better there.
    I would disagree. We looked far brighter
    Mata is a waste of space

    Difference between us and City. We bring on Mata and Pereira from the bench. While they can employ David Silva and Mahrez.
     
    Lack of proven creativity on the bench is again gonna be a massive concern.
    Mata just not up to it if thats the best weve got

    He’s not there to be an MU cheerleader obviously.
