Wolves a different side with Traore on the right. Shaw pegged back.

De Gea shifting his body to make sure that shot went away from goal was so clever

I know they’ve given the goal anyway but how is checking the offside to that detail within the spirit of the rule?

Because it may have been offside? There is no spirit involved. It’s a rule.

It feels like McTominay is in the team simply because he's a youth product, I don't see what he offers to the team.

1mm of his shoulder being offside would be a ridiculous way to rule a goal out

Yeah really smart move by Nuno. They are reacting quicker to loose balls too.

Now this is the test for Solskjaer. It's easier to set your team up but when the game changes can he change with it and counter the opposition's changes?

Yeah I don't think they need to go to VAR if there's inches in it like that, I thought the offside rule had to give the benefit to the attacking team anyway?

Mobility I reckon. Matic looked like he could barely walk last year, never mind run.

If it's offside it's offside.

Genuine question, but is United's policy on penalties if you win it you take it?

Otherwise, why did Rashford take the one he won last week but not today?

If you're offisde, you're offisde. It's a pretty black and white rule.

If 1 mm of a ball is on the line and the rest over should a goal be given too?

He is a monster for his age breaks up play and I remeber he out muscled Sissoko in the friendly we played against them

Matic went so far over the hill last season he's down in the valley beyond. He looked completely finished.

If United had managed to upgrade on him and replace Herrera they would've been a real force this season. As it is I think their midfield is too weak, McTominay can run about but he wouldn't start for Wolves, or any other team in last season's top 10.
