3-1 up, a decent side would push on and win by 4 or 5 here but United probably more likely to concede and leave a hairy finish against a bad bad side.

Shockingly poor Wolves. Utd doing enough but dodgy looking at times.

United only a point off 4th, Arsenal and City realistically be top 2, you'd expect Villa, Everton, Sunderland etc to drop off a little bit but a pile of teams there with very little daylight in the table, United if they got the finger out could get 4th but just as easily get 14th. A bit of good business in January would put them in a good position to push on, really need Sesko back though.

Cunny Funt

Comfortable away win scored 4 should have been double that against the worst team in the league.

Up to 6th level on points with 5th placed Chelsea and just a point off Crystal Palace in 4th. If it wasn't for the silly five home points dropped against 10 man Everton and West ham would be just a three points off the top of the table now.

All of the above is not to talk up this Man United team who have a load of issues on and off the field but to highlight the standard of the Premier League this season which is far from vintage.

Tony Baloney

Some bounce up the table. That's the leap Liverpool should have made against Leeds.

Armagh18

Frustrating points lost vs Spurs, Forest Everton and West Ham recently, took 3 from a possible 12, all winnable games.

United are now the 3rd top scorers in the league- was tempted to put this in the wtf thread!

Look-Up!

Good numbers for. They're actually good to watch for the neutral. Goals in them no matter who they play but concede plenty too no matter who they play. And they're hardly ruthless either, always seem to leave plenty goals after them.

Interesting to see how they go for the next month or so. Think they'll struggle with the AFCON.

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

Yeah big losses. Hopefully Mainoo gets a few games to stake a claim. Could do with the few injuries to De Ligt etc clearing up.

Ive never seen a team hit opposition players as much with shots at goal. A long way to go for Amorin. Still quite a few players not up to the task.
Won't challenge for anything with Shaw,Mount,Amad,Dalot starting and no striker.
Amad is at best an impact sub just too small to play the position he is asked.. Alan Smith was raving about Mount last night. Bar a wonderfully taken goal I dont recall much else. Cunha tried but lacked alot.
Then bringing on dorgu, zirkzee when 4-1 up. Why not give Shea Lacey 10 minutes.

Which is just as well for Utd.

The first goal was a gift that initially looked to have been untaken only for the Wolves defenders deciding to let Fernandez have another go whilst he was on his arse and the limp wristed keeper couldn't stop the pile driver that resulted.

Could have got 2 penalties out of it though.

Strange one to come away from a 4-1 away win still scratching your head about the team.

Doesn't seem to be any zip in the team, aggression or whatever it is. Wolves are seriously open but then so were United at times and a better team would have made them pay.

But that being said keep those results coming in a very strange league this year!
