At Molineux, Hojlund lost his temper with Amad Diallo after the latter failed to throw the ball to him while he was just outside the penalty area.

Hojlund expressed his annoyance at Diallo. Hojlund expressed his annoyance at Diallo.

Instead, Diallo, who has been the guiding light of United’s early Ruben Amorim period

The Red Devils went on to lose 2-0 to the Premier League strugglers, who themselves changed managers this month.

The incident with Hojlund summed up the frustration fans are feeling.

One supporter said on X: “He’s not even close to being good enough to do this.”

Another added: “He spends most of his time jumping around like a toddler.”

A third wrote: “Marked by two players within a foot of him and he wants to cry because he cannot make a run to save his life.”

The £72million striker had just 14 touches of the ball and failed to have a shot on target before being replaced by Joshua Zirkzee.

However, Hojlund was defended by former Liverpool and Man United striker Michael Owen and pointed to the lack of service the striker is getting.

“I say they’re [United] not so bad at the back but I mean they play to defend, they don’t commit everybody forward,” Owen told Premier League Productions.

“I’m looking at the Manchester United team half the time there [against Wolves] and they’ve got three players marking one at the back, you’d never see a Liverpool team doing that, they’d all go man for man and if they’ve got spare men they’d push them into attacking areas.

“That’s probably what he [Amorim] is working towards but at the moment, even if they weren’t conceding many goals I wouldn’t be getting carried away because the team isn’t functioning.

“They’re absolutely awful going forward, I can’t think of a chance that they had there today [against Wolves].
“Hojlund… I feel so sorry for the lad. That first half, six passes he received, four of them from defenders so in other words four of them are probably hopeful, long passes and two passes in the first half from a player who you would want to receive a pass off. And he’s supposed to do something with that.

“I can’t judge him as a player, I don’t know if he’s good or bad, and that’s the most damning thing you could say because after watching him for a year, I just feel as if he’s playing in possibly the hardest position in the Premier League to play in at the moment – centre forward for Manchester United – I never thought I’d be saying that.

“Centre forward for Manchester United used to be the dream for every centre forward in the world, scoring dozens and dozens of goals, and now it’s a poised chalice. And I never thought I’d be saying that.”

The incident highlights several problems manager Ruben Amorim must deal with at United.
