Wolves (H) | PL | Post-Match Thread

[Robinho's Subbuteo]

I knew we should have signed Nunez.

I’d be more worried that the player they’re now paying £400k a week has 7 goals in 19 games. Excellent return on the pay rise.

Good win, great three points, better energy and intensity from the start but other than Haaland we were not clinical in their box at all.

Other than our first goal, we didn’t create a lot and we were gifted two goals by Wolves with a penalty and a pass straight to us in their box. Could have been a tougher game than it needed to be if it wasn’t for Wolves’ generosity due to our lack of killer instinct through our own creativity.

I thought Wolves did well until we scored, but then seemed to lose their interest in getting anything after that. Confidence is fragile down the bottom I suppose.

Stones was class, Rodri and de Bruyne were good, Haaland had about half a dozen touches and got a hattrick haha… and the atmosphere was good today!

Great summary. Better from City, I liked that we went forward with the ball quicker and we pressed better. Still think we need to improve to catch Arsenal. Surprised Wolves didn’t play Podence from the start. Gave us a few problems when he came on. That Collins fella played well.

No, I thought it was harsh too but admittedly I only saw it in real time, haven't seen any highlights yet.

Totally bonkers. Actually a worse call than the non-pen on Jack.

What?! They created nothing at all in the first half, had zero shots and only started playing when 2 down.

Mahrez is really playing well at the minute. Good win. Performance better. Not at our fluent best but good. Haaland stats are just ridiculous.

Well, I never felt more like singing the blues
City win and the scum lose.
Oh City you've got me singing the blues.

 

[youngbob]

What was the Boney M song. Couldn’t make out what was being sung

"Johnny, Johnny Stones" to the tune of 'Daddy Cool'.

Them losing never disappoints. Even if them taking points off Arsenal would have been logically more preferable.
Them losing in the 90th minute is always a laugh.

And to VAR

 

[1961_vintage]

That’s one word for it …

Three out of four letters - just played in the wrong order.

 

[willipp]

Just got home and an enjoyable day. Hard to say what’s our best at the moment but still feels like that was a long way off even though we won easily.

Johnny , Johnny Stones to Daddy Daddy Cool by Boney M.....oh shit there goes my street cred

"Johnny, Johnny Stones" to the tune of 'Daddy Cool'.

Ah yes. I heard that but didn’t hear the words

 

[Gray]

Was hoping we would finish with 5 centre halves on the pitch, that would have been great.

That is 3 points dropped by the Rags in the last minute, over consecutive league matches.

Yeah, there is that I suppose. Don't why I'm so downhearted. Well catch the Arse regardless!

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Ake has made the left-back role his own for now.

When he plays aggressive, it really makes a difference to both his and our game.

Another decent improvement from Jack and Stones continues to look imperious this season.

I feel for Gundo, you can see today his mind is as quick as ever but his legs don't seem to be responding to the signals from his brain, which is a shame?

It's an area we can improve and hopefully Gundo will be happy to be a squad player, if that's the case.

Decent game from Akanji and much more like it from Kev.

Haaland is just Haaland...

They restricted us to next to nothing until our goal apart from one shot from Grealish and a few corners. After we scored their heads went down.

 

[ancoats]

what I like today was the clean sheet with another makeshift back 4, even played 4 centre backs again in the 2nd half,
I think if we conceded, pep would have blown his top again, hahahaha,

one big thing happen today and KDB turned up, I think lewis took a knock and could not step inside Mahrez to take the ball off him, so KDB slots in and that one pass to Haaland GAME over,

But Haaland what more can be said cool as ICE

 

[WestGorton]

Grealish... Haaland.....Mahrez working well. KDB back.
