The Neves thing would be a bit rank but if it's a case of a signing like that or nothing then get it done.
-
That's pretty great news if he isn't out for a long time. If we could have him and Isak back after the internationals it gives us a lot more breathing room in forward areas.

Craig No Hope -
He'd have needed to seriously up his defensive work IMO. Villa accommodate him up front in a two with a solid midfield four which lets him get away with a hell of a lot out of possession. That's very different to playing out wide in our system. I can see why Howe apparently had apprehension - although to be honest I don't think Barnes is the best out of possession either. He's a perfect fit for Villa mind. Emery is no mug with his signings (except for Tielemans, who looks a terrible fit).
-
That would have been the logical selection (and some score apps have it that way) but I don't think it actually was. Targett was definitely in CM when we kicked off with Hall at LB.

Imagine if Krafth had buried that chance man

Lewis Hall to miss rest of season with foot injury (Official)

Still a bit unrefined but his distribution is absolutely superb at times. -
That run man. Some of Hall's distribution has been superb as well.

LCR4: Manchester United vs. Newcastle United - 01/11/23 @ 20:15 (Sky Sports)

Straight to pennos isn't it? Even with a shite team it's possible to get through as these LC games are always weird. -
Whey exactly. Filling an empty seat on general sale at a club's home game is quite clearly very different to a very limited supply of away end tickets being farmed off at a corporate level to randoms.
-
I still dont think it's a pen though. You can't really impede somebody significantly by 'grabbing' in that way IMO. Rodri just hoys himself to the ground to win it. Very soft.
-
Really don't think that's a penno. You see shirt grabs or two armed grabs that are much worse and don't get given.

ponsaelius replied to Paully's topic in Football
Fwiw I don't know if we can say it was a waste of resources signing him (seen this mentioned). We only made it happen because they were amenable to a loan-to-buy situation which worked in terms of FFP for this season. It's possible if we couldn't get that arrangement we wouldn't have made a fourth signing at all. There isn't many signings available for those kind of deals apart from older players who aren't wanted by their clubs and will have higher wages. -

I know he's only 19 but find it mad that he can't get anywhere near our side in either LB or midfield even off the bench yet he was starting games for Chelsea last season. Possibly goes a long way to showing how chaotic Chelsea have been over the last couple of years. I'm confident we'll see more of him as the season goes on but definitely surprised by just how little of the pitch he has seen. -
Half and half scarves in an away end is a shocking state of affairs like. I presume they were the Dortmund/NUFC ones sold midweek and not a Wolves/NUFC one??
-
Trippier probably. But he had the injury, and the odd more stinky performance.
-
There's a fair argument that he's been our best/most consistent player under Howe.

Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-2 Newcastle United (28/10/23)

Wolves aren't bad at all at home. Considering the circumstances it probably isn't a bad point. No suspension for Bruno too is also a bonus. -

We look absolutely knackered unsurprisingly. Horrendous watch. -

We've had some luck but the ref is trying to balance it out by giving some bizarre free kicks. -

Surely no way Wolves don't get another one here.
