Michael Owen Criticizes Man United’s Poor Performance After 2-0 Loss to Wolves
Former Manchester United striker Michael Owen has criticized his former team after their disappointing 2-0 defeat to Wolves on Boxing Day at Molineux.
Owen was particularly harsh about United’s attacking performance, describing their display as “absolutely awful.”
He noted the lack of fluidity in their play and the absence of creativity in the final third.
The former England international pointed out that the team is struggling to function under manager Ruben Amorim.
“When you look at Manchester United against Wolves, it’s hard to see any sort of coordination,” Owen said on Premier League Productions.
“They’ve got three players marking one at the back, which is something you’d never see from a team like Liverpool.
They go man for man, and if there’s space, they use it to attack.”
Owen went on to emphasize that even if the team wasn’t conceding goals, it would still be a worrying situation, as the overall play just isn’t coming together.
“They’re terrible going forward, and I can’t recall a single meaningful chance they created against Wolves,” he added.
The defeat left Manchester United languishing in 14th place in the Premier League, further adding to the pressure on Amorim’s managerial reign.
Arsenal legend Paul Merson passes message to Mikel Arteta to place Kepa Arrizabalaga as the goalkeeper in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday.
In a recent interview he shared “Arsenal need to make a big decision whether to go with Kepa Arrizabalaga or David Raya in goal, Kepa has been first-choice in the Carabao Cup, and they should stick with him. It is only fair because he played well and took them to this stage”

Former Manchester City player, Joleon Lescott shares his prediction on Arsenal FC ahead of their Champions League quarter-final clash.
It can be noted that Arsenal will face Sporting CP in the quarter-finals, while FC Barcelona will take on Atlético Madrid.
“I would not say so just because of the way they defend.
“I think a more compact team like Arsenal, and with the offensive talent that they have, I think will cause Barca a lot of problems because I still think there are frailties in their defensive line.”
He shared that Arsenal has a chance of going far in the competition.
Former captain of Watford, Troy Deeney shares his thoughts on Arsenal’s chances of winning a trophy this season.
He stated that PSG and Bayern Munich could perform better than Arsenal.
He also named Arsenal, PSG, and Bayern Munich as the top three favourites to win the UEFA Champions League.
The former captain added that he does not think Arsenal are the strongest team and could struggle against top sides like PSG and Bayern Munich.
