Had a feeling we would score a late one.

Very disappointing result,just goes to show how important home advantage is.

Thought I was watching Arsenal tonight we were trying to walk it in.

Herrera,Lingard and Martial don’t look fully fit.
Pogba prancing around.

Thought Ole could have brought Mata on earlier.

Good luck Wolves moving on.

wouldnt disagree, but its subjective. In this lovely modern era surely hes out of control and hence the ref gives a red, cant see what evidence there was to overturn it (wouldnt have been a yellow 5 years ago!)

Again the use of VAR is inconsistent. It wasnt a clear nor obvious error.

Match them for effort and your quality will eventually show making home advantage irrelevant.

The underlined bit is probably closer to the truth 😉

Don’t agree,home advantage makes a difference always has always will.

Obviously as I and yourself pointed out it certainly wasn’t the only reason we lost.

Home advantage only matters when you don't match them for effort, that goes for any side.

I dont think Yernited matched Wolves for effort tonight, they seemed to win more 2nd balls and stronger in the tackle etc.

Its only a mickey mouse cup anyway😉

When you were at your pomp, do you think playing any team away, let alone one 7th would have mattered?

I think now more than ever, you need to be at 100% as your aren’t much better than a lot when you coast. I think home advantage is more importnat for smaller teams than big ones.

Always a good day when City win and utd lose.
But and i said this and was slated for it earlier this season. Little things are/went Citys way. Except today they weren’t little.
We want to come on here and talk about giant killing. Be it Wolves v Utd or Swansea v City. Not mistakes by officials that should be corrected by VAR. VAR. how the hell could it be in this stadium this time last year yet not today. Quite frankly it is rammel in its present form.

I’m genuinely surprised by peoples reaction to VAR not being used in all matches in the FA Cup, (not on here by the way, I mean on Twitter etc)
It’s been used in games were PL teams are at home since the 3rd round.
No VAR tomorrow for Millwall v Brighton.
