Good answer from Bruno regarding Rashford. Barely mentioned him and said they all need to prove a point etc.

Antony to Saudi, Olise in. Voila
Performance was excellent. Just the finishing that lacked.
Once again close to lose points because of imaginary decisions by referees. The only thing I want is club to make statement.
Emotional Roller Coaster...Get the FECK IN!
First away for 3 years and that happens feck my life I love this club
Ridiculously good match to watch, and a needed 3 points. Very good in the first half, bad overall in the second but a great finish. Mainoo is incredible.
I said the exact same thing to my cousin. These two should be banned from ever playing for United.
Why do we have to make it so dramatic? It feels incredible to win like this but this shouldn't have been this hard. Thank God for Mainoo. The first half gives me hope. But we're prone to feck up at any point of the game, even with our first choice XI. I'll just take the win tonight and accept that this season's games will always be a roller coaster.
I’d rather we just kill games off thanks.

Mainoo wow... ! Get in kid! Made Sir Alex smile as well 
Thankful for the 3 points.
We always make things difficult though

So how were we drawing 3-3 with 2 minutes to go then?
A deserving win. Football orgasm at its best.
Firstly, that penalty decision was baffling. Disgusting.
It shouldn't have mattered though... first half we needed to be more clinical. We made the chances, which is an improvement, but it was like last season... so, so profligate. It was a weird game where we looked really good and really awful at various points.
EtH's changes sometimes worked, not sure if by design, or dumb luck. But they all seemed odd at the time, and none of the changes brought us greater control.
Onana not even bothering to dive on their third was a moment.
Amazing goal by Mainoo at the end, calm too.

Some fantastic performances but once again almost paid for missing chances (Hojilund, McT, two from Bruno and more probably) but dreadful penalty decision changed things. Was thinking in first half that the ref was one of the best I've seen but appalling from him and even worse by the moron on VAR - and where exactly did they find nine minutes from?
Onana should never play for us again after the absolute rubbish of their second goal and the rush of blood where Licha blocked it on the line.
ETH also made a mistake in taking off Hojilund who was running them ragged and holding the ball up brilliantly - we have never, even in the glory days, been good at sitting back and just defending.
But we did look better with Shaw and Martinez back and Varane back in favour. Casemiro was excellent too. Garnacho was good too

Yeah. He should go.
What a great game to watch. I thought, we were really good in first half, shambolic with taking our chances and in 2nd half, we did too little to stop Wolves building momentum. I thought, us scoring so quickly after their goals was a bit jammy - it really kicked them in the nuts. Twice The subs made us worse but what can you do. McTominay quite a few good scenes, thought he was the best sub - even though I didn't like seeing him being subbed on when he was. Dalot is such a nothing player... only one sticking out. He was the worst in the team today while being alright, which speaks for the team. Happy for the team

That was a nothing performance.
Onana is awful.
Casemiro has been missed, great first half, sloppy second half
Mainoo has everything to be a star. Just needs to focus and play football.

It's clear as day now. That our starting 11 has a lot of quality. But a shoddy squad overall. Badly need to support this 11 with a few quality additions if we are to go anywhere at all.
Mainoo goal was better than the Nacho overheadkick imo. The way he beat the first man and the additional pressure of scoring the winner last minute.

Whatever! They are both wank. My word though, adrenaline is still pumping after that finish…
I don't often buy into a bias rhetoric when it comes to officiating but that tastes very sweet after the joke of that penalty decision when you couple it with those not given at Anfield last night.
The game management left A LOT to be desired but what a winner and what a absolute gem we have in Kobbie Mainoo.

What's it going to take for this group of players to be professional over the course of a match?! On the day, thrilling result and entertaining match, but the mentality to win this league and win the CL is nowhere to be found.
Not good for the old blood pressure
Indefensible second half performance, thank god for Mainoo and McTominay (can't believe I'm saying that).
Mainoo had six players around him, six experienced grown men, and that 18 year old just slots it home like it's nothing in the dying minutes of the match. What a player he is.
Such a poor last 20mins
We can’t keep conceding +2 goals every game
We need a keeper
4-3 is more exciting than 2-0
Let’s smash the Hammers at the weekend 3-0

Why 9 minutes added on?
I swear the league is corrupt.

Where the hell did he get 9 minutes from.
There should be an inquest over this match, not only how VAR gave the softest penalty I've ever seen, but also where the 9 minutes came from (that ended up 11:20). It's ridiculous.
Was any of our goalkeepers ever this bad? Even our backup goalkeepers from the past have been better than this fraud. I can't even see him getting better. He is missing sitters, he never holds onto the ball the first time, his positioning is horrible. What did we even buy him for? His distribution??
Really sharp in the box and on counters but conceding 3 is of course not good. Worrying we can’t control the ball better in midfield and looked so stressed under pressure. Lost count on how many times Varane hoofed the ball straight to a Wolves player. Good win, good that we scored many goals but the rest not much to write home about.
please
It was an entertaining match, great for Mainoo but we're going nowhere with the mentality at the club. Just shit the bed constantly every match. Can't control a game, can't win comfortably. Way too chaotic.
Should have been 5 0 up in the first half. We never do things the easy way. 10/10 would watch again.
What on Earth were both Evans and Maguire both doing going up for the corner that led to the Wolves 3rd. Keep one of them back for fecks sake! Amazing game, should have been out of sight by half time. Kobbie!!!!!!
Ah lads. That’s why I love this club.
Anyone got a gif of the Wolves fans after Mainoo scored? It was beautiful.
Penalty decision changed the rhythm, never a penalty. I actually thought we were good, not clinical enough but created plenty of good chances away from home against a team unbeaten in last 5 and have been doing very well. They are difficult to beat and took arsenal to wire, beat City and it took Liverpool a while to win there. We have to give credit where due, still lots to do to move forward but I will celebrate this. Also, 4 goals for the 1st time this year in the prem.
Mainoo, he's just pure class, so glad he's here but as Bruno said, he's just talent right now and if he keeps doing what he is doing, anything is possible.

I'm still sweating, my heart rate is through the roof.
That was classic Manchester United. It had everything.
The drama before the game with Rashford, him scoring, the up/down nature of the match, the feeling of "surely we won't collapse from here" to "oh no we've now collapsed" to that late winner!
Loved it and wouldn't want it any other way.
