Red Devils slip to eighth Old Trafford defeat


Manchester United’s dismal Premier League campaign hit another low as they fell 1-0 at home to Wolves, suffering their 15th league defeat and eighth at Old Trafford this season.

Rasmus Hojlund endured a game to forget, missing two clear chances to put United ahead.

The £72 million forward looked bereft of confidence and ideas, ultimately being replaced by Chido Obi after 70 minutes in yet another underwhelming display.

Pablo Sarabia settled the tie with a brilliant free-kick that left André Onana rooted.

United, clearly fatigued after their midweek Europa League heroics against Lyon, lacked sharpness and urgency.

Manager Ruben Amorim’s decision to rotate heavily, including a debut for 20-year-old Tyler Fredricson, underlined where priorities now lie.

The defeat compounds the pressure on United, who are limping towards the season’s end with little to show for a campaign marked by inconsistency, missed chances and underperformance from key players.
