Wolves deserve to lose after playing so boringly all game but annoyed they didn't drag the game into extra time

You have to be really bad to lose against a rubbish team such as sevilla.

I don't say we will beat Sevilla but I'd rather play them than face Wolves again this season. Sick of them.

If Ole continues with his 1 man midfield, I suspect we'll struggle massively.

Hopefully he changes the midfield shape vs them.
Matic will play with Pogba and Bruno. We’ll be fine.

Happy with Sevilla winning but we really could have done with it going to extra time first.

I hate playing vs Spanish teams. In recent years, we've lost to Real Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia and Sevilla and barely scraped past Celta Vigo if not for a Guidetti sitter.

That doesn't really change anything. We've seen the poor midfield shape with Matic in there too.
Matic has been one constant when we’ve defended well. He was rested yesterday in order for the semi.

We should not underestimate Sevilla.

Spanish teams are always technically brilliant. I full expect Sevilla to dominate us in possession as they keep the ball very well. Especially with how jaded we’ve looked last few weeks. It could be a backs to the wall performance. Their midfield can quite possibly dominate our midfield.

Wolves were quite comfortably the worst team left in the competition.

All four semi finalists are already in the Champions League for next season on league positioning regardless.

And from a Utd perspective, there are three good teams and we have to beat two of them.

It's ok, we're still brilliant on the counter attack. But agree that they are not to be underestimated. Think Ole can just play Jose's post match interview in training all week to get the lads fired up.

I think, we would have a better chance against Wolves. They look just as tired as our players.
Wolves always raise their game against us. Either team has their challenges, but had enough of playing Wolves this season.
