Coolest man on the pitch.
Let's be honest, we should have pissed that.
Missed loads of chances, ridiculous (embarassing tbh) penalty, and we have a **** keeper, otherwise that's six one.
Antony wasn't bad at the back, give him some credit.
Yes, he doesn't seem to know what to do with that final pass. Seems a bit stupid tbf.
Keeper is garbage though. Doesn't try to even make saves, how can that be?
Wolves 2nd and 3rd goals came directly from him being a brazilian spoofer, holding onto the ball too long against 3 players, getting dispossessed and they went forward and scored both times.
He's a nob. Another one who plays for himself. If I was one of the other players I'd be laying into him.
Third one, yes.
He was outside the penalty area facing the goal and fluffed it to their defender.
The rest we saw, but it still should have been stopped by someone before it was buried.
What he does offer is some defensive effort. Which the other two wide players (or Sancho before) never do.

He lost possession for both of their last two goals.
He was playing on the left as well - that thing we always complain about. Well now we know. He can't do much with his left foot playing on the left either.
He genuinely thinks he's that good that he can take on 3 players in a cul de sac instead of playing the pass that was on 10 seconds earlier.
We needed to keep possession in those final 10-15 mins. That's what he was brought on to do. Instead he gives the ball away twice through his own selfish play and it cost us 2 goals.
He's coming up to 2 seasons at the club. He needs to show his worth. Tracking back isn't enough anymore.

He was a wrong buy which had massive implications, one of which included unsettling Sancho while adding very little to the team. My guess is when Mount becomes fit, he’ll play on the right with Antony on the bench.
Amazing that you predicted 3-4. You could have won sweet money with that bet!
Yeah, his final ball is definitely not good. Also yes, he's had two years but never had a settled run and has some big issues to overcome.
Counterpoint to the player he allegedly unsettled, he's got on with it and not ****ed off out on loan.
His transfer fee is a bat to bash him with, he's definitely not worth it, but I can see his value to the squad. It's a decent committed squad we need, with injuries being sorted and players coming back it's slowly forming.
The positives are we created a **** load of chances and played well. The negatives are we missed loads, went quiet in the second half, again, and have an immobile totem pole for a keeper.
Most keepers out there would save, or at least attempt to, two of Wolves goals. He also didn't dive for the pen, which was utterly ludicrous in the first place.

completely forgot I'd predicted 3-4Onana has been our worst buy since Bebe.
He doesn't come out, close angles. He completely misjudged a cross yesterday and Martinez saved him by clearing on the goal line (brilliant he's back btw).
And when he is caught on the line he faps at everything. It's like me playing in goal ffs!
Does anyone think we can challenge for the league while he's there? I genuinely don't. So if he's going to be here for another 3 years we're fcked.
No chance we win anything with him as keeper, I sat there assuming he'd cost us at least a goal and while he literally didn't (nearly did), he made no attempt to save the three that went past him.
Of the players Ten Hag has signed, he's the most glaring error. I can see why we did, he had a decent record, but we've got zero scouting network of any note so he wasn't being closely looked at enough. Hopefully that now changes. (keep saying hopefully, it sounds pathetic tbh)
Can't say you weren't all warned!! I'll wear that like a badge of honour till he's gone.
Agree that if ever Mount gets fit he should play on the right of a front three. Garnacho and Antony then nothing more than impact subs while they (hopefully!) develop. I'd like to think Rashford has had his blow out, but we'll see.
The midfield three of Casemiro, Bruno and Mainoo looks really good, until Bruno goes all off grid and loses any semblance of composure.
I like the fact that Dalot and Shaw are effectively wing backs, and have the engine to both attack and defend. They supported the back two and forwards well.

I went out for dinner at half time, confident about a good result after that fantastic first half, but still worried that we might let Wolves rally, I thought I'd get home to a 2 - 2. Great win, they dug deep and Mainoo was his usual, superb self.
Surely Bayindir can’t be any worse than Onana, or not?! If he’s not better, then wtf were we doing buying two goalies that can’t add up to one?
Goalies don't add up to one. You can't have more than one on the pitch at any one time.
Bayindir was average against Newport imo. Maybe it's his first game so I'm being a bit unfair but he wasn't as good as I'd hoped.
He's probably still better than Onana. But good enough to be No. 1? Not sure.
All immaterial anyway as Onana aint going anywhere and he'll be first choice.
This is just insane!
Getting the right goalie for United is always a tough job. We have seen a fair share of horrible ones with Taibi being the craziest. However, what is worse is when you have the confirmation that a goalkeeper is not of the right mold for the club, but continue to persist with him. It is criminal of ETH to continue to pick Onana as his number one. Even Cameroon dropped him after his fk-ups at the Afcon. Why is ETH persisting with him?
