Wolves (A) Post-Match Thread

[Trojan63]

Don't forget Gordon Grimley...

Or the little Brummie out of Auf Weidersehn Pet

 

[RayCTID]

Excellent result given the circumstances. I just don't get very harsh criticism with the team

 

[WallyA]

Seems to me we might be going full on inverted wingers,

Sterling/Ferran left, and Foden/Mahrez right.

Don't think we see Bernardo on the wings anymore.

Him in the 10 position, to rotate with Kev, or perhaps playing deeper with Dinho/Rodri would be my ideal spot for him.

 

[Benarbia’s Backheel]

Brilliant performance considering. was great to see Dinho in midfield again, he is still a master. i love Jesus but his troubles with being offside are just ridiculous. The one on 70 mins was unforgivable and he needs to sort it out. Apart from that he was great

 

[bennyboy]

Why?

Caught out of position with two balls over his head.

 

[TueartsOHK]

And he got the shit kicked out of him.

Sure Wolves are a good side.

They are also a dirty side. leaving a little bit on with their challenges.They have also mastered tactical fouling,shirt pulling,and using their arms a lot to prevent movement.As always the Ref sees fuck all when it is against us.

They’re Portuguese - they‘ve learnt how to play from Ronaldo

Delighted with the win tonight, was worried before ko that Fernandinho was going to be in a back 3 but thankfully he wasn’t. I thought he was man of the match adding steel to the midfield which we have badly missed last season when he was in defence. Brilliant 3 points, another week to prepare for Leicester & get players fit.

Really good performance against a decent Wolves side. With a few key players being out it was even more impressive. First half was brilliant, second half not as good but pleased with how we managed the game after they got their goal. Second goal was great bit of football. After Mendy got the card, it made it hard for him to deal with Traore, as one mistimed challenge and he would have been off. Overall good night.

Plant is a glory hunter (the 50s) from West Bromwich and Noddy is from Walsall. Edward Elgar you’ve got me - could be born in Bilston for all I know :-)

Worcester born and used to ride a bike to Wolves games from there and back!

 

[Prater70]

Not sure we should base the quality of our striker on his work rate. Yes coming on with twenty to go and closing down is needed sometimes, that was what Gabby's role was when he came to the club. Paul Dickov had a great work rate but something more is required from a top striker.

 

[Hoghead]

Those yellow cards were obscene. Played against 12 men, again!

 

[Blu1]

Wow! passionate statement from micha on racism then. He fully deserves his seat on that panel. Cool guy who will always be a blue

 

[The perfect fumble]

Was he in Deep Purple or some such titan of 1970s rock and roll?

Monsters of Rock!

Greetings, pop-pickers!, All right? Stay bright!, Not arf!

 

[FogBlueInSanFran]

Thought Ferny, Foden and Walker were especially good today.

True. But if you judge a striker on work rate, link up play, pressing, dribbling, chance creation, teamwork, movement, space creating movement, AND goalscoring, Jesus comes out positively.

Shag it. Throw in Derek Dougan.

 

[WestGorton]

Magnificent Micah.

 

[Burtonblue]

We think Mendy can't defend and instead it's better to have Cancelo against Traore?

I think my nan’s a better defender than Mendy and she’s been dead 15 yrs!
Lovely guy as Mendy may be he is a very poor defender at this level...

If we score 3-4 goals a game and he doesn’t score but contributes like he did tonight, I’ll take that.

 

[City Raider]

Don’t care how it came about. That’s a huge result.
