Wolves (A) Pre-Match Thread

[EekC]

Late Delap winner, anyone?

I'd prefer to have this game won at half time, thank you

 

[ShaunMCFC]

Be good to see Stones have a solid game, be nice to see him and Ake start a good partnership together

 

[01cravend]

Yep, but while it looks weak i am hoping we are in a position where we can get a look at the kids. I guess we will see Torres at some point so maybe Delap will get a chance.

There's not a chance any of Doyle, Delap or Bernabe get on the pitch

 

[Impeccable One]

Never seen the bench look so weak

Guessing you have only been supporting City since 2010?

 

[super_city_si]

I'm obviously guessing here, but I think it'll be a standard 4-3-3. We'll see very brief spells of the match when we're in possession whereby Fernandinho drops to CB, Aké to LB, Foden into CM, and Mendy will go up and attack.

to me its the same as the liverpool home game. Rodri and Dinho deeper, wiht Kev free in front and then the front 3 press like maniacs to stop Wolves out ball

 

[damrider]

FFS.... Delap,Bernabe... Stones... :( What is going on with Pep????

What's wrong with delap and bernabe? And who did you want to start at CB lol

 

[Le Havre Oswald]

Surprised gundo is starting via Zoom

 

[PistonBlue]

Huge game for Stones. Fingers are crossed for the lad

 

[Impeccable One]

Late Delap winner, anyone?

Can he do long throw ins?

 

[stan bowles]

Should be a good test tonight. Interesting bench. Hope Stones revives his reputation this season starting tonight. Jesus I think will come good for us tonight.

Why the fuck were they eating muscles so close to a match?

because they're shellfish

 

[Zenmanc]

hope so

Yeah me too but the more I look at it and the better I know pep:
Ed
Stones Fern Ake
Walker Rodri Mendy
KDB Foden
Sterling Jesus

One says score a ton of goals the other says absorb then counter and hope we win by a goal.
I guess I'd rather see us go for the throat than absorb especially the first game of the season.

 

[Gumzy97]

I honestly think Pep sees Phil as a winger

 

[hilts]

Must be 3 at the back. Dinho's legs have gone and he can't play midfield anymore. That's why Pep wouldn't put him there last year and went for the rapid rodri or gundog;-)

The FA will be getting us on an illegal bivalve use charge.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Stupid fucking kick-off time.

 

[Zenmanc]

Don't... i'm in rehab for fish puns

[St.Pauli support]

Injury round-up
Aguero (recovering from knee)
Laporte (just back from quarantine)
Gundogan (COVID)
Garcia (head wound)
Cancelo (foot)
B Silva (muscle)
Zinchenko (muscle)

I am totally prepared for a very difficult season fixture list in mind.
3 subs is criminal. I thought it's safety/health first.
Covid positive tests will pile up across the PL and elsewhere during winter, too.

I don't expect much for the season.

BUT for tonite,
I want to see the lads in passion and not be shafted by Wolves again.

I'd rather we didn't get rogered by Traore on the break myself, however I've covered that option by putting him in my FF team
