Wolverhampton Wanderers 0:1 Manchester United

Red Royal · Dec 28, 2022

Would love to see McNeill or Hugill on the bench for this. If we can somehow get a big lead would throw one of them on.

LawCharltonBest · Dec 28, 2022

Does anyone else look at the Wolves fixture and get that “urgh should I bother” feeling?

These games are never enjoyable. And they always game raise against United.

Yes, and considering the game raising that still goes on against us even after 10 years of not being at the top I foresee a gargantuan attempt by Wolves.

Look at Villa’s application and effort against Liverpool vs that against us a few weeks ago. It’s pretty much foregone conclusion that Wolves will have the game of their lives against us on the 31st.

DJ_21 · Dec 28, 2022

Must admit, not looking forward to this game. Has a 0-0 or a 1-0 wolves written all over it. Hopefully I’m wrong and we can turn it around against them with a decent win. We must keep winning to not only improve our chances of top 4 but to keep Liverpool and Chelsea out of it. Liverpool and Chelsea missing top 4 will help us massively next season with transfer targets as we’d be able to offer CL football.

Havak · Dec 28, 2022

Would take 0-1 right now as I hate playing them. It's always boring and they either score on the break or bag a worldie from 25 yards. Helps that we got the 3-0 against Wolves and have Bournemouth at home next where I'd fancy us to win by 2 or more again. Players are coming back, we've looked in control with our first two games back and kept clean sheets, made chances etc. So, really should be 9 points from 9 and get that GD +6 or higher.

de Gea
Wan-Bissaka Varane Maguire Shaw
Casemiro Eriksen
Antony Bruno Rashford
Martial

Should be a well balanced side, hopefully Dalot and Martinez are back for the first game in the new year. Would stick with Antony for now. Similar subs with Garnacho, Fred, Malacia, Elanga etc.

bosskeano · Dec 28, 2022

DeGea
Dalot Varane Martinez Shaw
Eriksen Casemiro
Antony Bruno Rashford
Martial

that right now is our strongest XI and they need to start the match assuming Dalot and Martinez made it back....if not then little choice but to play AWB and Harry

Havak · Dec 28, 2022

Martinez back in training so could start. We might be one player away from full strength which is very good news. Just hope we can get a couple of goals to the good and maybe sub on Maguire if either CB still isn't quite ready for 90 minutes.

Thankfully, we just have Wolves & Bournemouth before our Cup Games (Everton & Charlton) so there's opportunity to get minutes for those that need it soon anyway.

GledTheRed · Dec 28, 2022

Neves with his goal of the season contender.

GregM40 · Dec 28, 2022

They’ve got a very good manager now and will be buoyant after that last minute winner against Everton. We should be beating these regardless though with the form we’re in. 2-1.

pascell · Dec 28, 2022

I'd take a scrappy 1-0 right now, they're under a new manager and will be full of confidence after winning their last game in the last minute.

charlenefan · Dec 28, 2022

This is probably the only game between now and the City game where we should play our strongest XI, the following games against Bournmouth, Everton (FA Cup) and Charlton (League Cup) we need to be rotating from game to game to keep players fresh

Yeah you are spot on

EliotTheRed · Dec 29, 2022

Ugh, Wolves. It always seems like the best we can ever muster is a dour 0-0. Please, a routine 2-0 win will do!

We have beaten them four out of last five times.

Feel like half our games in a season are against New Manager Bounce FC.

Hopefully they had that bounce at Everton. Look at Villa first game bounce against us, then nothing much since.

We really should ignore that one. We had the anchor around our neck that was Ronaldo, play 90 minutes We played them 4 days later and beat them 4-2

Yeah remember that. Amazing how much one player stunted our play in defence and attack again and again (was also amazing how many refused to see or acknowledge it).

We've obviously carried poor performing players in the past with relative success, but this one insisted on demanding every ball and to be fair, his teammates insisted on trying to get the ball to him, so we could never even play well despite him, our performances always depended on his performances, which meant they were always poor and tepid.

Anyways, let's hope we build from last game's performance and end this year on a high.
Antony for instance, has done and can definitely do so much better than he did against Forest, so here's to hoping!

Hester_manc · Dec 29, 2022

.................DdG.....
AWB.Varane.Maguire.Shaw

.....Casemiro.Eriksen...........
.............Bruno....................
Antony.......................Rashford
...............Martial.....................

Subs: Donny, Fred, Garnacho

I know ETH always has some of our young talents on the bench, but he never uses them anyway.

Haha exactly the same for me. All I can remember is 0-0 with them.

Litch · Dec 29, 2022

It’s not the same Wolves as previously but you know it will be bloody frustrating…..

Harry in for Malacia, Shaw to LB.
Garnacho in for Antony.

We win 2-0.

Agree with the score prediction, the team selections are awful. Maguire? Why? Antony was a major investment in the summer - he needs time and games.

always_hoping · Dec 29, 2022

Hopefully a small measure of revenge against Julen Lopetegui. His Sevilla side who's goalkeeper was MOTM and team scoring twice from three shots on target in that Europa league semi final in 2020 and i doubt either goal would be conceded had Shaw played instead of Williams.

Really surprising, this. One of those stats that are true but don't feel like it.

SSSSnake · Dec 29, 2022

The last few years I felt like our midfield could never control the game against Neves & Moutinno. This year feels different with our midfield so I’m hoping we win comfortably and boss them! Shaw back at LB and Martinez in hopefully.

It certainly does feel true. I'd go further and say that if you told me we'd never beaten them, I'd possibly believe you. Horrible bastards.

Higgy74 · Dec 29, 2022

Hi guys…. Not sure if you’ve heard but recently a 16 year old girl who was involved in a road accident and sadly passed away, she was a season ticket holder at Molineux and used to attend with her dad, her family are trying to get a minutes applause in the 16th minute going, would be great if any of you travelling would join in.

hope this is ok to post here and thank you in advance

Probably the performances that stick in the mind. Don't know how we beat them away last season, think it might have been Varanes debut but not sure.

It was indeed his debut. He played like a man possessed. No way we got away with 3 points there without him in that match.

So sad to hear that. I’m sure everyone going will applaud in the 16th minute. Things like this always unites fans. Football brings people together and I’m sure the crowd will grant her family’s wishes.

They beat Brighton away in their next league game after beating us. Then it was the World Cup break which is the last thing they would have wanted as it halted their momentum from those two huge opening league wins.

————————-—DdG——————-

—AwB——Varane—Martinez-Shaw-

prediction:2-3 (Rashford, Bruno, AwB)

Right now, I'd take a shitty 0-1, just to wrestle that 4th spot from Spurs even if just for 24 hours. Just need to keep that momentum going.

I’d take anything to get 3 points. Don’t care about Spurs or anyone, I just want the 3 points buddy.

ColvaleGoa · Dec 30, 2022

The boys will have to work extra hard to get the 3 points here. Wolves for some reason seem to be a very bogey team!

Thiagoal · Dec 30, 2022

How did I not know they had Diego Costa? You just know he’s going to roll back the years and produce a master class

Bondi77 · Dec 30, 2022

The team are playing well and I always look forward to the games when we are...who wouldn't!

Marcus · Dec 30, 2022

This should be a good game. Come on United!

They also could have had 4 against Liverpool

6 weeks ago this would have been a walk in the park

Not now, They already looked a better team under Lopetegui
