The players gather round the centre circle to pay tribute to Pele, football’s answer to the Beatles.

Moments later, Wan-Bissaka makes an even better block to deny Moutinho, who looked set to score from 12 yards after a good ball from Costa. For a team who have barely scored all season.

Michael Jones31 December 2022 12:571672491315Wolves 0-0 Man Utd23 mins: Close! Antony and Wan-Bissaka seem to have a good understanding with each other.
They start this game in 18th place, but it still doesn’t quite compute that a team who were part of the mid-table furniture for four seasons might go down. The signings of Julen Lopetegui and Matheus Cunha reinforce that feeling, and it’s so tight at the bottom that Wolves are only six points off 11th place. Even so, there is work to do. United, in the parlance of our time, are in a pretty good place. Erik ten Hag has recovered from a diabolical start with quiet authority – he could barely have handled the Cristiano Ronaldo problem any better – and, even without Ronaldo, Paul Pogba, Jadon Sancho, Edinson Cavani and Mason Greenwood, the team looks much more balanced than it did at the start of the year.
He curls it towards the penalty spot and Varane heads clear. 8 min United are starting to dominate possession, with Casemiro and Eriksen snapping the ball about with confidence.

Eriksen’s outswinging corner from the right is headed towards goal by Casemiro at the near post.

They combine again to bring the ball down the right before Antony charges into the box. He gets a shot away and a deflection off Ruben Neves almost does for Jose Sa who has to stop his move and leap back in the opposite direction to keep the ball out. Michael Jones31 December 2022 12:551672491215Wolves 0-0 Man Utd20 mins: Manchester United are looking to take control of proceedings. They’re bossing the ball and playing at a nice tempo.
I’m also not sure other non-Man Utd fans are that jazzed up about it either, although I may be wrong. ”It’s quite complicated I think, because unlike with most footballers it involves both on- and off-field matters. Anyway, each their own I guess. Plenty of United fans, never mind neutrals, still don’t really like him. Half-term reportsRashford dropped for disciplinary reasonsOh, hello. On BT Sport, Erik ten Hag says that Marcus Rashford is on the bench because of an “internal disciplinary” matter. There goes the feelgood story of the season! Wolves started the year by hammering United 1-0 at Old Trafford. But that was one of only 11 league wins in 2022, including a run of just three in the last 24 games, and they have been slowly sinking down the table.
That was a seriously good save actually, full stretch to his left as he charged out towards Garnacho. 15 min “Antony is the 13th most expensive player in the history of football, ” says Andrew Hurley. “And there’s no English premium either. It’s very hard to understand, he’s an averagely good player who will score a spectacular goal three times a season... I can’t get my head around it. ”He’s been underwhelming and a bit one-dimensional so far, but I’d be inclined to trust, or at least respect, Ten Hag’s (and Tite’s) judgement. After the precedent of Robert Pires (first season: so-so, second season: player of the year) I’m loath to judge creative players until the end of the season season.

Wolves vs Man Utd LIVE: Latest Premier League updatesSportFootballMan Utd will move into top four with victory over Wolves who hope to escape relegation zone "Good is not good enough, we have to do better" - Ten Hag rates start at Man UtdManchester United can move into the top four with a victory over Wolves this afternoon as Erik ten Hag’s men are only one point behind fourth-placed Tottenham, who face Aston Villa on Sunday. Meanwhile, three points for Wolves today would be a huge boost to their hopes of avoiding relegation and would take them out of the drop zone. The Red Devils restarted their Premier League campaign with a comprehensive 3-0 victory over Nottingham Forest as Marcus Rashford continued his hot streak of form and Anthony Martial also got on the scoresheet.
While less phonetically catchy than McFred, Caseriksen represents an almighty upgrade in midfield, and Marcus Rashford’s resurgence is one of the happier stories of the season. United are still a long way from challenging for the two big prizes*, but a win today would at least move them into the top four. They haven’t been at such altitude since March. * And yet, a little paradoxically, had they won those first two games of the season against Brighton and Brentford, they would be right in the title race.

Maybe he’s a Pires, maybe he’s a Pepe. My money’s probably on the latter at this stage but it’s early to be sure. 14 min Here’s more on Marcus Rashford’s omission today. 13 min The Wolves’ full-backs have been pretty lively going forward, more so than United’s so far. 11 min United break dangerously, with Casemiro and Martial combining to find Garnacho in space on the left. He surges into the area but is calmly tackled, I think by Semedo. 10 min Bueno wins Wolves’ first corner, which he’ll take himself.
Team news: Rashford on the benchBoth managers make one change from their post-Christmas victories. Matheus Nunes replaces Joe Hodge in the Wolves midfield, and Alejandro Garnacho comes in for Marcus Rashford in the United attack. Rashford is among the subs so is presumably being rested; the 17-year-old midfielder Kobbie Mainoo is also on the United bench. Wolves (4-3-3) Sa; Semedo, Collins, Kilman, Bueno; Nunes, Neves, Moutinho; Hwang, Costa, Podence.
