Man United take on Wolves in the FA Cup third-round replay and many believe fatigue will play a major part in determining the outcome of this match.
Manchester United have seen lots of ups and downs this season but they have been constantly playing important fixtures during the winter period and this match against Wolves happens to be one of them.
And speaking before the match, Man United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has chosen to speak about the hectic schedule that his players have to go through but at the same time, he’s praised his for maintaining the goal-scoring flow.
The manager said in his press conference: “It’s our 14th game in 45 days,”
“We’ve still got five or six games before the winter break – it’s relentless! 18 games in less than 60 days which is physically and mentally demanding, we have to energise them.
“I don’t want credit; they’re working hard to improve their game and they’ve all done well.
“Mason’s in his first season, so to have nine goals is fantastic. Marcus [Rashford] is growing and improving all the time and Anthony [Martial] has missed eight weeks.
“I’m impressed by them, working well on finishing patterns, and we want consistency and we’ll see more and more of them.”
Man United will need to win this match if they wish to win a silverware this season and if they manage to beat Wolves they will also go into their next Premier League game with backloads of confidence.
And as it happens their next league encounter is against arch-rivals Liverpool at Anfield.
