#2 Ander Herrera
Ander Herrera's presence in the team sheet sent a wave of optimism among the United faithful. United had missed his teeth in the middle of late and his presence meant that the preferred midfield of Matic, Pogba, and Herrera was back in the field once more. However, his return to action did not turn out how he would have liked.
The Spaniard seemed cautious on the night and also stayed a bit deeper in midfield. Maybe he was not fully fit, but Herrera took time to find his feet on the ground and his usual bite was missing. There was no ferocious closing down, very few late runs, and a lack of ambition. And it affected the away side.
United looked short staffed in midfield, lost the battle, and could not summon up clear cut chances. Herrera had very little impact in the first half and his number was already up before Wolves scored.
Solskjaer will be hoping that the international break will help his midfield dynamo get better because United missed the old Herrera against Wolves.
