Wolves (A) - Wed 11th May, 20:15 (BST) | Pre-Match Thread

Fair enough and you are entitled to that view. Imo we looked a little uncomfortable before the second goal was scored. Newcastle had a few efforts, most notably the 1 ruled offside.

The defence in general this season is giving up chances to the opposition. I am not saying we cant defend, the standards set by John and Ruben last season have been hard to replicate. Fern is a fantastic player and if we need someone to stand up and be counted it is him.

In summary, I don’t think we can get through the next 3 games relying on the defence to shut out the opposition.

We will just have to keep scoring five then

Most important game of the season a must win

Nonsense. The most important game of the season was vs Liverpool. We can draw on Weds and still win the title comfortably. Liverpool will have their minds elsewhere.

Get out there and smash the fuckers. Leeds, Newcastle, Wolves, Hammers, Villa. Average teams at best, should be fined for daring to take us on.

All those arrogant rags talking across the decades say hello.

Tough one, again. Wolves have the 4th best defensive record in the Premier League but to counter that they do not score many. That said, it's a cup final for us but an end of season game for them so the motivation and mentality should be with us. Come on Blues, we can do this.

I can't see us getting maximum points out of our next two games

This is the pivotal one for me.

would rodri not better at CB and put ferna in DM? Then if/when ferna tires, we can bring gundo on at DM?

I think you're better off having Rodri at DM on balance. No perfect answer but that's his best position and Fern has played CB more.

I think the West Ham game is going to be the hardest

Is this your coping mechanism?
