MU 0-0 Wolves: Amorim's bold decision

On the evening of April 20, coach Amorim fielded a squad with 5 players aged 20 or younger to welcome Wolves in round 33 of the Premier League.

MU used reserve team to play Wolves.

As announced after the win over Lyon, MU will use a squad consisting of reserve or young players for the remainder of the 2024/25 Premier League.

Tyler Fredricson, a young defender born in 2005, made his Premier League debut. The U18 player played alongside Mazraoui and Lindelof in a three-man defence in front of Onana's goal.

On the left, left-back Harry Amass started his second Premier League game of his career, while up front, Kobbie Mainoo was named in the starting line-up for the first time since February 2.

The physical and mental challenges after the comeback against Lyon in the Europa League will be a big challenge for Ruben Amorim's team when they welcome Wolverhampton at Old Trafford.

With their current Premier League position looking bleak, the Europa League may be United's only way to salvage the season. However, a record of just one defeat in their last 13 home games against Wolves (W9 D3) has given fans confidence that the Red Devils are still capable of taking all three points.

On the other side, Wolves are enjoying their best run of form in over 50 years in the English top flight, with four straight wins. If they can get three more points at Old Trafford, and Ipswich lose to Arsenal this weekend, they will officially stay up. Under manager Vítor Pereira, Wolves have transformed dramatically, going from 13 points behind Man United to now having the chance to move level on points if they continue to beat them, which they did on Boxing Day last year.
