Mick Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 I suppose it's also Lovenkrands' fault that he isn't a left winger. Using players incorrectly is the fault of nobody but the manager Lovenkrands playing on the wing is totally different, Harewood was playing up front. Harewood had plenty of the ball and did nothing with it, including failing to connect with a ball about 4 yards from goal and would have flown into the net with any contact. Harewood had nothing today, he was slow and weak when he should have been winning the ball more often that he did, I'm not even sure that he's fit. For such a big bloke he loses out on far too many challenges. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Harper, Simpson and possibly Nolan are the only ones I don't question after this game. It's the attack not the back line that is the problem. I remember he gave the ball away twice early doors, headed that chance into the stands when he should have centered, and had the goal ruled out. That's it in 90 minutes, why on earth wouldn't you question him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 The reason we've dropped 7 easy points in 3 games is not to do with the manager or players, its to do with the fat cunt not buying a squad for us to compete with. He thinks he can get by on scraps and loans, well fuk the fat cunt, if we fall from the top and struggle it will spite the cunt, count my nose firmly cut off and slapped up his face the fat retard.

That's it in 90 minutes, why on earth wouldn't you question him? Because despite today he's the only one that looks like scoring from our midfield. He layed on a fantastic pass for Lovenkrands and was showing the intelligence to realise all the long balls were dropping in and around the edge of the penalty box.

Pilko Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Lovenkrands is a fucking useless winger, there was an instance first half when Carroll won a great flick-on and he had half the pitch to run into and a few yards on his marker, what does he do? Takes a touch and then tries to pick out Harewood who isn't even goalside, and hits a rotten ball out for a Notts Forest throw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Catch 22 with Nolan, an utterly useless football who always looks like scoring in a team that collectively doesn't. Has to play sadly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madras Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 is anyone goig to be honest enough to say that we are not better without butt in the middle ? get the scapegoating out the way (seen it with batty years ago when he had fuck all in the way of options) at least butt will take responsibility,something palpably lacking smith or nolan. i didn't even notice guthrie was playing till the hour mark.

Pilko Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 That's a bit harsh on Smith. He wasn't great today but he was still better than Nolan and Guthrie combined. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 The strikers were the big disappointment for me today. Carroll was keen, but tried to do too much at times and didn't play with much intelligence. Harewood didn't look like he wanted the ball. For a player of his experience, he looked very unconfident. We should go back to the 4-4-1-1 that got us results earlier on. Two big centre forwards doesn't really work. PS - In fairness to Carroll, he didn't get enough protection from the ref. There were a lot of challenges from behind that ought to have been penalised. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 It's absolutely pointless just lumping it long at the strikers if they don't have the support from the midfield. ..or have the technique to hold it up and bring others into play or find each other with flick-on's.

Guest Rey Mysterio Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 When we get a CB fit, i'd like to see Guthrie and Smith in the middle with Jonas and Taylor on the wings. Playing a striker and a central midfielder on the wings just doesn't work. We proabably have one of the worst strikeforces in the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said this earlier in the thread. Forest only had one striker, but their midfield supported him much better. Nolan, Guthrie and Lovenkrands were utter wank as usual.

Butt is just another legless codger who can't keep up with the game. Just because the rest are bad doesn't mean he's the answer. One of the few successes this season has been Butt's replacement, Smith. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElDiablo Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 It's absolutely pointless just lumping it long at the strikers if they don't have the support from the midfield. This, every time we launched it up there in the first half, it dropped down to a Forest player because the wingers were out wide and Nolan and Smith were arsing around on the half way line. Utterly shit tactic. Made even more annoying at how we looked twice as good in the second half playing it about. Harewood was actually better in the first half than second imo... He was actually invisible second half constantly hiding behind his man and popping up in the wrong position. Thought we lost something when Lovenkrands went off, we looked too one dimensional when Jonas came on, just give it out to him or Enrique and hope they create something, it's like they're playing their own game out there at times them two. Nolan was embarrassing as well, just extremely shite. Not supporting the defence or the attack just floating about doing absolutely fuck all. Total waste of time playing him in the centre in a 442. Smith was our MOTM again, very accomplished performance. The ref was a total cunt, the standard in this league is beyond belief, looked a clear trip on Enrique and kept giving ridiculous fouls, booking Ryan Taylor for attempting to block a hoof upfield about sums it up. Overall, pretty shit, but nothing particularly worrying, we badly missed Taylor & Coloccini, think we would have got at least a point if they'd played. Saying that neither Khiz or Simpson did much wrong, they just got raped in the air and physically by their strikers. Good atmosphere, but it's shit when we get allocated those long spread out sections like we used to at Villa, half the time about 3 songs are on the go in different parts. They had a pocket to the left which was pretty good but overall their lot were average too. Jacqui Oatley (sp) was sitting across the way from me on the train back, didn't realise it was her until I noticed she was on Twitter looking at Jacqui Oatley's feed. First off I nearly asked her why she followed Jacqui Oatley on Twitter as she's a shite commentator, then I noticed she was writing a comment on it, looked at the top right and saw it was her updating her own profile. She's a Wolves fan, don't know if that's common knowledge, but I'm not missing this opportunity to break an EXCLUSIVE to the world, and I know you'd all be thrilled at gaining that information, obviously.

Now you are making Smith the scapegoat. He's doing his job in front of the back four, it's the midfieders who don't dovetail with the attack that are failing.
