Manchester United's staggering Premier League campaign continued as the Red Devils fell to a 1-0 home loss to Wolves.
Joao Moutinho's late strike gave Wolves a 1-0 victory against Manchester United in the Premier League on Monday, January 3.
Wolves had not played since December 19 due to COVID-19 issues but dominated the opening proceedings at Old Trafford, United only holding on thanks to David de Gea repeatedly thwarting Bruno Lage's side.
Wolves had not scored in their last 13 league games against United, dating back to 2004, but pinned back Rangnick's languid side for much of the first half.
They registered 15 shots to Man Utd's four in the first half - the first team to have more attempts than United at home since Liverpool in December 2018.
Wolves recorded their first league win since February 1980 at United, who dropped further ground in their pursuit for the Champions League places.
After another poor performance, United defender Luke Shaw questioned the intensity and motivation of his teammates.
However, Shaw did have one positive take from the match, praising fellow defender Phil Jones, after the centre-back made his first senior appearance in two years following a series of injuries.
The Red Devils interim manager Ralf Rangnick admitted that his side were second best against Wolves as they struggled against a packed midfield.
It was Rangnick's first defeat as United interim manager, with the club missing the chance to put pressure on the teams above them in the race for the top four.
The disjointed performance from United that led to their defeat to Wolves at Old Trafford left many asking what it will take for United to get back to its old glory days.
For United to be playing so badly, across a whole game, at home, on the back of an unbeaten run like that is a huge concern.
It is difficult to judge a manager after six games as no philosophy can be fully drilled in that time, however one could question Rangnick's tactics against Wolves, but regardless of them, many of his players looked uninterested and disjointed.
With all that one is left asking if United have so many problems to fix, why are they wasting six months on appointing an interim manager, only for them to appoint another?
