Match Thread | Wolves vs Manchester City (25/08/18)

I'm going to buck the trend on here with a positive comment.

Sterling is starting to look closer to the player we hoped he would be. Really impressed with him taking the game by the scruff of the neck. Mendy's creativity is outstanding.

I wish Kompany would understand he's not a ball playing centre half.

It’s Pep that needs to understand that. Suicide playing a Vinnie against a pressing team. Should be Stones and Laporte every time.

Don’t get like a rag

Sorry, I genuinely don’t think we’ve done that well. Is that now a raggy thing to say?

Kompany needs to come off. Nice guy but he’s been poor for years and it’s overlooked because of his personality.
Stones and Laporte should be the starters as they are both comfortable playing in a higher line. Don’t like Bernardo on the wing either

Vinny the one heading everything away when they have their set pieces/crossing from wide..But ignore that as he's played a few sloppy passes

when teams get in our faces/ press intensively Gundogan is a passenger and Mendy will be very vulnerable. He is great going forward but defensively he is all over the place and was in the few games he played last season as well.
With Ilky its always the same...when teams press us he is not the player you want when the pressure is on

Raheem has been vey good, Aguero sharp and unlucky and both silva playing well

Ferna sloppy at times but vital at others. Kompany getting caught out and walker not in the game enough.

 

[Neville Kneville]

All of our problems there self inflicted.

Really bad choices on the ball at the back & some great attacking positions wasted.

Too many times defenders trying to force a pass when there isn't one.

Sterling is being fouled every time he touches the ball & the referee is playing it on and not booking anybody, so.they can keep on fouling him & stopping him from running away.

 

[Blu1]

It may be stating the bleeding obvious but the downgrade from Kev to Gundo is just painful. He offers absolutely nothing and I'd rather see Foden play before him as at least he's brave and tries to make things happen.

Take Foden over him every day

 

[deano ou812]

Too casual at times, particularly from VK.

This,nearly boardering on complacency,but we have been unlucky could and probably should be at least 2 up just seems at times we are over complicating things,although to be fair wolves have defended pretty well all be it some last ditch..

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

Well, Wolves have played well but we haven't done ourselves justice there, some sloppy passing out from the back has led to their best chances. Mendy is great going forward but somewhat suspect at the back under pressure. I think we need another body in central midfield as they seem to be outnumbering us in there and pressing. Not taken our chances and not quite on the button up front as yet.
