Waiting for ~
#Olein to start trending. This is dire - we are being battered by Wolves!

 

[Robbo]

Worrying.

 

[Ayahuasca]

Ralf Wrongnick

 

[BaZ87]

It's easy to see why Wolves have only scored once all season. They couldn't hit a barn door with a banjo.

 

[bingham67]

Jones going to be man of the match this rate..

 

[JamesH85]

Trying todecide if it's United playing shocking, or wolves playing brilliant.

 

[dacads]

Wolves have been ok

united just so inconsistent you never know which side is going to come out and play

 

[Mekrel]

Greenwood is the only one I'd give a pass mark to in this half, he's been involved in our brightest moments, few as they have been. Actually Phil Jones has done ok given the circumstances. The rest of them need the hairdryer. Including

To be fair Greenwood has been one of the better players, particularly that pass that released Sancho who selfishly shot rather than play in Ronaldo. That's not saying much though and the Greenwood criticism was one example of simple passes being misplaced.

I would love to know whats happening behind the scenes at United because we look as bad as ever. After the first 40 minutes of the first game under Rangnick we have looked awful again.

We look even worse than under Ole. At least you got the odd exciting game this season with him. All of Ralf's games have been pretty diabolical. The system he wants to play clearly doesn't work but I think he will be stubborn.

I honestly think that a big part of it is that you've not got the squad for fast, pressing football. Your two central midfielders aren't mobile, your two forwards aren't mobile, and Varane is your only centre back with any pace. I honestly think you'll be stuck playing counter attacking football until your squad has a huge overhaul, which is outrageous given the money already spent

 

[CliffyG]

That attack there seemed to sum United up. Awful pass from Greenwood then AWB actually gets past someone only to knock the ball with his other leg before crossing it out.

 

[vanandjuanunited]

Greenwood and Bissaka

 

[Robbo]

That 'cross' from AWB was special. Plenty of space and he boots it out for a goal kick

 

[BaZ87]

Now I know why AWB has to steady himself before passing the ball.

 

[Mekrel]

We don't look worse than under Ole at all, we couldn't defend for toffee at least we're not conceding multiple goals a game now. Let's not forget Watford stuck 4 past us. Don't get me wrong, it's still not looking great but it's better than Ole in my opinion.

 

[McBain]

Number of fans upset McTominay will miss the next game: 0

 

[doodah]

Only in this messed up upside down world would Phil Jones return after 2 years, and sounding like being Utd's best player so far.

 

[Robbo]

We don't look worse than under Ole at all, we couldn't defend for toffee at least we're not conceding multiple goals a game now. Let's not forget Watford stuck 4 past us. Don't get me wrong, it's still not looking great but it's better than Ole in my opinion.

Of course it's better than Ole (this season). Ole was a hopeless manager, this is his squad and look how bad it is.

 

[Ayahuasca]

Any reason Bruno isn’t whipping balls in and keeps laying one of the worst crossers of a ball off?

 

[Robbo]

How has Bruno missed that!
