General Premier League Thread 2023-24 Mod Note in op 27/6/23 And 21/05/24

Wolves are leaving Bissaka free every time Onana has the ball so tnat they can play it to him. And that’s a brain dead tackle from Martinez.

Sad news. Only 26 years of age.

Thought they said a decision would be made last week, might gave missed it.

Pros and cons but I reckon he will stay there at this stage.

Nothing has been released to say either way so no-one outside the club actually knows.

Only guesses and opinions from people ATM.

Dr. Bre · 14-08-2023 8:34pm

Wolves with the better chances here

ShamoBuc · 14-08-2023 8:34pm

30 gone and Wolves are well in this could even be ahead.

doc_17 · 14-08-2023 8:37pm

United will want to keep Greenwood, there’s no doubt about that. But they are just trying to see if they can keep him and save face as well.

GoldFour4 · 14-08-2023 8:42pm

Reckon they would have released him by now if not keeping. They’ll wait for some other controversy and try put it out alongside it

doc_17 · 14-08-2023 8:47pm

Even if they decide he won’t play for them again they won’t release him, they could sell him to a club in the Middle East. They wouldn’t care out there about his past.

ShamoBuc · 14-08-2023 8:53pm

Fairly poor first half. I know its their first game but there are a lot of players whose first touches are no where near good enough. Garnacho has been particularly poor. Wolves are causing a fair few problems but you feel a mistake by them could well lead to the first goal.

Fitz* · 14-08-2023 9:05pm

Half day for the butcher.

Take off at half time.

doc_17 · 14-08-2023 9:09pm

Shocking miss.

ShamoBuc · 14-08-2023 9:10pm

Really should have buried that.

ShamoBuc · 14-08-2023 9:16pm

Ran through the middle of United again. They need to actually take one of these chances now.

ShamoBuc · 14-08-2023 9:34pm

Wolves have cut through United several times but you just feel one Wolves mistake will allow Untied take the lead.

Surely some drama to come in the last 20.

cj maxx · 14-08-2023 9:35pm

Wolves must be sickened

Mystic Meg 🤣

ShamoBuc · 14-08-2023 9:36pm

Fernandes started it, nice lobbed pass, AWB did well and Varane tucked it away. Didn't score last year, so he's a happy boy.

ShamoBuc · 14-08-2023 9:38pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120978673#Comment_120978673

And probably more drama to come.

They should be but only have themselves to blame.

GoldFour4 · 14-08-2023 9:53pm

Far from an impressive performance from United. That defence will leak goals to better teams

martyos121 · 14-08-2023 9:54pm

Tahith Chong thinking he still plays for United it seems.

martyos121 · 14-08-2023 9:55pm

He’ll get away with that assault, because he’s a keeper.

GoldFour4 · 14-08-2023 9:55pm

That’ll be a penalty

Edit - surprised they looked at it a few times and let it off

cj maxx · 14-08-2023 9:55pm

Cleaned him out .

Kiith · 14-08-2023 9:55pm

Surely a peno.

Fucking nonsense. What are they looking at?

ShamoBuc · 14-08-2023 9:57pm

Awful decision

Had to be a pen.

AdamD · 14-08-2023 9:57pm

Check VAR's back account, that's absurd.

GoldFour4 · 14-08-2023 9:57pm

Keepers really get away with nonsense.

Can assault an attacker like Onana there or else get away with a fumble like that Fulham goalie yesterday

klose · 14-08-2023 9:57pm

Lol decision that

earthwormjack · 14-08-2023 9:57pm

That's a penalty all day. What a joke of a decision.

martyos121 · 14-08-2023 9:58pm

Wolves robbed, but they only have themselves to blame for not winning this. Should be two or three clear at this stage.

Could be a season without Man United or Liverpool in the top 4 if the last 24 hours are anything to go by.

KH25 · 14-08-2023 9:58pm

That’s a shambolic call from VAR. Completely wrong.

facehugger99 · 14-08-2023 9:59pm

What a cowardly decision.

100% a penalty.

ShamoBuc · 14-08-2023 10:00pm

United were absolutely hanging on in the end but will be a lot happier with the result than the performance.

Wolves created some amount of chances in fairness but not a single one taken.

Fitz* · 14-08-2023 10:00pm

First game and all that but Casemiro looked 10 years older. Wolves created chance after chance after chance via running straight through the middle.

SlickRic · 14-08-2023 10:04pm

You have to laugh at that not being a penalty.

Wolves have only themselves to blame as they should've scored without the help of a penalty. But my God.

This exact thing came up in Wolves first game last season (against them that time), and here was a reason it wouldn't be given...

davemckenna25 · 14-08-2023 10:07pm

It's a good sign when you can play crap and still win the game.

Always great to get 3 points on the first weekend. Hopefully the results continue while the performance improves.

omega man · 14-08-2023 10:08pm

The fact the ref wasn’t asked to even look for himself on the screen will only lead to further var recriminations and we're only on day 1. Crazy decision by the var official.
