After their shock defeat by Aston Villa, United boss Sir Alex Ferguson will be pleased with the three points which draw them level on points with leaders Chelsea, but the flat performance might give him a few concerns.
The talking point before kick-off could have been Ferguson's previous 899 league games in charge, but instead it was the visitors' surprising line-up that caught the attention. Mick McCarthy's vastly-changed Wolves survived for half an hour before losing out to a lacklustre Manchester United. With 10 new faces from the team that beat Tottenham, Wolves fell behind to a Wayne Rooney penalty after Ronald Zubar handled Darron Gibson's corner. Defender Nemanja Vidic soon made up for a wild volley by nodding in United's second from another Gibson corner. An uninventive Wolves rarely threatened and Antonio Valencia fired in the third after clever work by Dimitar Berbatov. (BBC Sport)
