Man Utd

Fans have picked out Manchester United's star performer following the team's 1-0 win against Wolves in the Premier League.

Third place in our contest was claimed by Casemiro, who once again took control of the proceedings in midfield and shrugged off the minor blow of being booked by referee Robert Jones to help the Reds power through to full-time and three more precious points. That decisive moment in the match helped Marcus to earn 56 per cent of the vote in our official poll at full-time. But while Jose Sa was busy between the posts for the hosts, his counterpart at the opposite end of the pitch also had to be on his toes.

Ten Hag handled the latter excellently and decided to not include Ronaldo in the matchday squad at all for the trip to [Chelsea](https://www.irishmirror.ie/all-about/chelsea-fc) after breaching rules and recalled him straight away for their following game in the Europa League. Last season, United had lots of issues with players going to see their agents first and leaking stories out to the press, which causes lots of problems. The players have to eat exactly what is prepared by the club, so that Ten Hag can easily monitor their diet and how they are functioning on a daily basis. This was another breach of his contract and United ended his terminating his deal by mutual consent, and there's little doubt Ten Hag also had a say on the decision. The Dutchman wants to develop a strong bond with United's players, believing reciprocal trust and respect is one of the key factors behind any successful team. Each United player has a custom-made diet plan drawn up and will have their Body Mass Index (BMI) checked monthly to make sure they are staying in shape. The 25-year-old overslept and was late to a team meeting prior to the Red Devils' clash at Molineux on December 31, and was therefore dropped to the bench. Having demanded the change the way United play from the academy upwards, Ten Hag took charge of the reserve team last week in a bid to open up a better pathway into his senior side. This was despite how well a player was performing and their importance to the team as he tried to change the ethos and culture at Old Trafford. There were many question marks raised about Ronaldo's future ever since Ten Hag was appointed given his style of football and the forward's unwillingness to press from the foot. However, the Red Devils have gone from strength to strength since Ten Hag gave his squad a brutal punishment after the 4-0 defeat at Brentford. The Red Devils have won 10 of their last 14 league matches and are in an ideal position to challenge for a top-four place following their 1-0 win over Wolves on Saturday afternoon.

We also today created a lot of chances and once again we had a clean sheet, so it shows that we are hard to beat and that this is a team that can defend very disciplined, and we have to keep that process going.

But in the second half it was a good reaction from the team but of course I want it from the start."

Manchester United have two home games coming up at Old Trafford in the coming week. In the end, we deserved more. We have to win every game to get into a position where you can win something. I think we can draw a line under it and move on." It was the Wolves winger who initially made the bigger impact and Ruben Neves forced a fine save from De Gea with a long-range free-kick. But with Wolves making conservative changes and defending deeper, Rashford found the breakthrough. At the other end, Wolves threatened without testing De Gea - a tame shot from the hardworking Diego Costa being the closest they came in 45 minutes. Having scored in each of their last 10 and with Wolves vulnerable at the back, Ten Hag would have expected goals.
