Paul Merson is tipping wolves to frustrate Manchester United and hold them to a 1-1 draw in the Premier league on Sunday.
The Red Devils held into the game looking to return to winning ways in the top flight after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Southampton last weekend.
Manchester United have just buoyed by the news that they have agreed on a deal to re-sign Christiano Ronaldo as the Portugal International is set to leave Juventus.
Ole Gunner Solskjaers has been tasked with steering the Red Devils into Premier league title challengers this season and he will be eager for his team to return to winning ways this weekend.
However, former Arsenal star, Merson thinks that wolves is going to put up a significant fight and he’s tipping them to earn a point at Molineux this afternoon.
Speaking on an interview quoted by Metro, Paul Merson Said: “I was a bit disappointed with Manchester United last weekend, when they made it 1-1 against Southampton, there was a feeling that they would go on and win the game.
“Funnily enough, it seems to exactly what the players thought–before they knew it the game drifted away and you were in injury time. They didn’t get anywhere close to scoring, as there was no urgency.
“Ole Gunner Solskjaers didn’t show enough conviction for me – he replaced Fred with Mctominay when they needed a goal, why not throw another attacker on and have a goal like Alex Ferguson use to do back in the day?
“He played it safe that day and it caused them two points, so it’s important to remember that Premier league titles are won by having a go!
“Wolves have been unlikely so far and deserved something from the game against Spurs. They’ve had around 40 shots in their last two games but didn’t manage to score, but who is to say a couple don’t go in if they do something similar against Manchester United.
“I’m not sure about Jadon Sancho but I think Raphael Varane should start this game, as his pace could be useful against the Electric Adama Traore.
“This is dangerous game for Manchester United and I expect them to drop points again, I’m going for 1-1.”
