Wolves (h) pre-match thread

[Didsbury Dave]

I have a feeling we will give them a drubbing tonight. It will be our strongest 11 of the entire season, in great form, and all playing for their places.

 

[AUSSIE RED]

Wolves are a good side and will be happily mid table at the end of the season. Definitely the best of the promoted sides and have signed well, particularly Neves who had been a revelation. Glad to see them back in the big time.
Think they will be happy with anything less than a flogging so I am going for a 3-1 City win

 

[BringBackSwales]

A clean sheet would be most welcome

 

[eversince 76]

I expect a win. Otherwise the win over Liverpool has been a waste of energy. That game seems to have brought back the refreshing style of play, despite playing lower league teams.

As for the starting 11. Anyone will do.

After the Liverpool game it would be a catastrophe if we were to lower our intensity again and drop points. Pep will drill that into them and I fully expect us to come flying out of the blocks. We do that and we will win. Keep the pressure on over the next few weeks and they'll crack,

Ederson
Danilo
Stones
Laporte
Delph
Fernandinho
Bernardo
Kdb
Sterling
Sane
Aguero

Impossible to drop bernardo after that liverpool game and kdb is due a league start now after the two cup games, silva on standby if we need him. Rest of the team picks itself.

Just got to wipe the floor with this lot.
Put some kind of worry into that Liverpool squad

Doubt it with the wankfeast over the Dippers..

 

[Rammy Blue]

A clean sheet would be most welcome

I’d prefer 6-1 than 1-0

You would have to think with the way this Wolves team counter, that they will score.
Just hope that keeper of theirs doesn't have one of those nights

I’d prefer 6-1 than 1-0

I’d take 3-1 over 1-0. ;-)

 

[Zenmanc]

Kiss of death

Cue Traore wonder strike.

 

[Zenmanc]

I’d take 3-1 over 1-0. ;-)

Remember: we don't do clean sheets unless it's cup games... or v. London clubs.

 

[SebastianBlue]

Remember: we don't do clean sheets unless it's cup games.

Remember: from the standpoint of fighting for the title, clean sheets should not be our focus (as much as we all may love not conceding).

No, but goal difference might come into play. I f*cking hope not, but you never know.

Dippers currently on +40, we are on +39.

Dippers currently on +40, we are on +39.

Exactly my point. Where would we be if we were to win 1-0 or 3-1 today?

To further illustrate my point: if we were to go through the entire season winning every game 1-0, except two 0-0 draws with Liverpool, and they were to go through the entire season winning every game 3-1, except those draws with us, they would be champions and we would win the Record Most Cleansheets Trophy (for which Mourinho would finally congratulate Pep on such a massive accomplishment).

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

Just had a word with Pep; told him to go with this:

Ederson

Walker
Stones
Laporte
Zinchenko

Dinho
KDB
D Silva

Sterling
Aguero
Sané

B Silva, Mahrez, Jesus earmarked to come on. He fully agrees.

 

[northwichblue]

Cue Traore wonder strike.

Nailed it

 

[SebastianBlue]

Nailed it

Jesus likes this.

You want crucifying for saying that
