Might be a little drunk but are United showing resilience here?
Steady on, I wouldn't go that far!

two games in a row where I’ve expected them to fully capitulate and they go on to solidify their lead. I know the bar is in hell but it’s progress!

There was more contact there on Garnacho than on Neto for the 'penalty'

Its our own fault this has happened.
They need to sort out penalties and VAR.
The rules at the moment are:
Ref gives penalty - unless there is no contact its a penalty
Ref gives no penalty - unless there is very clear and serious contact, its not a penalty.
You can't have a system that relies on the ref making an absolute whopper to have VAR change it.
Just let the ref go to the monitor every time. No pressure like there currently is if the ref is sent to the monitor. Just let him have a second look at his decision. Yesterday, VAR should be telling the ref "there is contact, go have a look".
When VAR is just there to tell the ref when he he missed something and he should have a look it will be much better than this current **** show. I don't believe the ref would have given that if he looks at it again.

Yet somehow VAR just magically made a **** up to equal out the one they publicly apologised for earlier in the season, what a wonderful coincidence. And then ignored a more obvious penalty claim from us 10 mins later.

This has been the story of the season. Wolves should be no where near any points at all. Was the same with our games in the Champions league. We invite the pressure on to ourselves and let teams back into the game.
It’s incompetence and nothing more. Pretty much every team in the league has similar experiences.
3 goals. A few subs and a lengthy penalty debate probably gets close in fairness.
