Who will be the scapegoat today ?

Phillips?

 

[Blue warrior]

One of them days or we wear them down.

 

[willipp]

Well that was dogshit. Slow, sideways, predictable with no pace at all. Hard to see where a goal will come from which worryingly was exactly the same on Weds night.

 

[Keeper!]

Shocking 45 mins from us, way off the pace and carrying half the side

 

[chris85mcfc]

Awful first half, so slow in moving the ball, and Alvarez and Foden have been completely anonymous.

Another reason why Grealish starts so often, as he constantly keeps taking the ball in games like this.

Can't be any worse in the second half, where Doku really needs to improve his end product as he's given the ball back to them about 5 times.

To a man we've been awful, so fingers crossed we come out flying in the second half.

 

[PALESTINIAN HEARTED MANC]

Horrible referring on many occasions. How is that not a 2nd yellow!!!! And that woman commentator needs to SHUT UP

 

[BertTrautmann'sParachute]

Refs have stepped it up this season.

 

[axlgod]

Legend has it, is Neto is still rolling around.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Rodri is most at fault for this.

 

[chesterbells]

Rushing it. Need to swap Foden and doku

That would be a start, agreed.

 

[bluemoon32]

That midfield, compared to the ones we've been used to, is a huge drop off

 

[bumbleblue]

Turned the anti City commentary off. Utter bobbins so far. Ref is a ****. C’mon City!!!!

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Terrible performance. Nunes and Kovacic look very average without Rodri and the forwards have been utter crap.

 

[simon23]

To be quite honest, it’s been the worst performance I’ve seen since Spurs away.

The team are scared of the hostile atmosphere and are completely disjointed, Håland and Álvarez invisible, Foden in no particular position, Doku playing like he’s still at Rennes, Nunes and Kovačić playing like they’re still at bottom half teams, Aké not playing well, Walker has spent more time rolling around than playing football and got stupidly booked, Dias scored an own goal after going to ground for no reason…

Only Alanji has played well.

Wolves have had 0 shots to our 13 and we’re 1-0 down.

Other than that…

Our 13 shots is very misleading.....nothing of any note in those besides maybe the Dias header right at the end of the half

 

[RayCTID]

Should be level. Wolves should be down to 10 men. We can play better but it is not the worst we have played. Hopefully we can wear them down.

 

[wolviedinho]

We need to ignore that useless ref. No excuses here, the whole team is not playing well enough. Step up or dropped points.

 

[Allnightlong]

Can blame him for a blatant second yellow, it has fuck all to do with how we played.

affects how we play tho

 

[Bigga]

Well, my observations are that Nunes is the key in this set up.

He's not driving forward as you'd expect against a block, which is why we bought him.

Foden is off key in the game, also.

With both a kind of creative flow, we can't have BOTH not at it.

One needs to come off.

What are you talking about? Doku, Akanji, Walker and Nunes have all done well, it could be better obviously but so far I'm happy with their performance.

 

[Brewster's millions]

I’m struggling to see what Wednesday was about. We had momentum, threw the game, but not seeing any benefit here.

Dragging players like Walker and Haaland up there to sit on the bench, and the coach journey back, even though we had no intention of playing them is a bit hard to comprehend.
