    He’s probably one of the worst signings i can remember us making. I know he hasn’t even finished a full season, but for £52 million, compared to what he does...

    He’s never even looked close to being good enough. I wonder what we saw in him?
    We saw interest from City, thats the only thing possible

    Bar the mistake for the goal, he head and shoulders our best player today what some of you are watching people. Without him we have no midfield.
    They are refreshing a commentatory stream. Clearly not watching the game. His touch is inconsistent but other than that we woudn't be able to get the ball past our half without him.

    Can't wait for the day we have eleven players that are comfortable on the ball. Smalling and Young are just embarrassingly bad for professionals.

    Lingard been totally invisible and useless. Way too often he does this to be a regular in our front three.

    how anyone can watch the angle from behind the goal of the DDG pass to fred and blame DDG is beyond me.

    Then they claim DDG can only stop shots and is a horrible modern keeper. FFS

    Our midfield is as bad as i can remember. There has almost always been at least one player with quality in there. Robson, Ince, Keane, Scholes, Carrick.

    Pogba is up there on a good day but he has so many off days unfortunately. We need at the very least two top quality cm's in the summer.

    England:
    It wouldn’t surprise me in the least bit if Madrid offer £100 million plus Bale for pogba come the summer and I can see us going for a deal like that.

    We do lack an elite level attacker though, which is what Bale is, when he’s fit!

    Really? I can't remember many of the points, but watch at the start of the 41st minute. Nobody around him and his awful touch causes himself problems. Absolutely unnecessary

    What player is on top of his game 100% of the time? The real problem is that we are totally reliant on Pogba. When he's off it, we struggle to do anything. This summer we need to recruit some players on Pogba's level too. Lingard & co aren't cutting it.
    I love all those excuses for him.

    Like against PSG?
    PSG away and Chelsea at home in his first season.

    That's the only big games he's scored in since he's been here.

    If he was content being a squad player it'd be fine, he's good against the fodder sides. But we won't be winning the big trophies with him as our main striker.

    I like him, he just misses too many chances.

    uh-oh....it starts
    What starts? That people can finally say the truth? Last 2 months you couldn't say that because it was Ole, good spirit and shit like that.
    But we are pure counter attacking team since he took over. Yes, it is not his squad and next year we will be maybe new Barca. We shall see. But for now, we are just slight upgrade of Mourinho's style.

    I dont get the fred bashing? Yes he fecked up on the goal but he aint playing poorly and is showing for the ball whereas Young(woeful) has been awesome for wolves.

    Midfield has been our issue for years, we have no control of any game, we cannot keep the ball and the link between midfield and attack is just not there. We rely on pogba far too much.

    If OGS waits till 75th minute with substitutes we will have problems.

    Lingard, Dalot, Young, Fred, Smalling are underperforming in the last 20 minutes, we need changes
    What we need is a kick in the ass, slap in the face and a scream or two at those little boys, who crumbled after Wolves scored.

    Young plays him onside then appeals for offside. That goal was a comedy of errors. Far too many Wolves players pressing up for De Gea to risk that pass to Fred who was on his own facing his own goal. De. Gea almost repeated the error with a pass to Young. We should be able to play our way out from the back but on tonight's showing so far, De Gea might be better off throwing the ball further up and wide.

    Behind the right goal post as "Whiteside shoots!"
    This team don't have any balls. Bunch of kids. Once they concede, all composure is gone. Sick of them tbh. We aren't playing Barca ffs. They lack character.
    For all the quality we've had over the last 20+ years, we also had character/mental toughness.... even the 'lesser' players.

    when we buy (and God, we need to buy!), hope this is taken into account.

    We started so well. Yes they scored, but keep doing what you were doing and we're bound to create more chances anyway. Why all of a sudden we start panicking? Young the biggest culprit for that. That position needs upgrading like yesterday.

    Yes I know it's pressure for us to get top 4, but you not going to get it by panicking.

    When we go into the transfer market this summer the first quality we should look for is mentality. We need some strong personalities for this team.

    Thank feck Lingard and his incredible “movement and pressing” are back in the team. It’s so obvious we missed him.

    And Fred can go feck himself.

    Wolves look a much better coached team than ours. Comfortable on the ball and without it, crisp passing, intelligent movement, much more cohesive and forward minded. Our team as usual looks slow, sloppy, ponderous and lethargic.
