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

Peps lack of substitutions

Substitutions are not normally scheduled for CBs. Substitutions usually happen due to injury or to rest a player who has covered a lot of ground in the match. There are a lot of positions that Pep's game plan result in far more work load than CBs. I know that this is all obvious but you stating that Pep not using as many subs as he could has caused our CB problem is just wrong.

So with one fit Center half going in to the final 3 games of the season 2 academy players on the bench how will we ever know if they are good enough

 

[richards30]

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

Win this game and I’ll be confident of title coming back to us. Watch Liverpool stick 5 past Villa on Tuesday.

I can see Villa getting something. Is this their last home game?

 

[BucksBlue]

If it comes to it I’d love to see Steffen come on and Ederson moved to the back 4 or midfield for the last 10 minutes ……..

………but only if we’re 5-0 up.

That would stir up the media coverage!

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Our biggest game of the season, a win sets up a margin of error and sealing it at home.

It's a very difficult game, they were excellent at Chelsea at times and carried a real counter threat.

Boly and Coady are a major threat at corners. Trincao and the Chinese lad are excellent players.

Just have to leave it all out there as West Ham have much more to play for at this stage.

 

[Mike N]

They’ve lost 15 games this year and conceded lots of goals. We have the movement to really hurt them.

 

[Bez]

Wolves have had 17 games this season in all competitions where they have failed to score. Let's hope we can stop them again with our threadbare defence.

 

[domalino]

Styles make fights and we struggle with Wolves. What I wouldn’t give for an early goal here to discourage them.

That said, a well rested Bernie to come back in is a huge bonus for us and with KDB in superstar mode we just need to make sure we convert the chances we will undoubtedly get.

4-2 City

But Nuno’s wolves and the new wolves are completely different styles…
