Tubestationatmidnight Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I just don't think Gayle up front on his own at home works. Only listened on the radio but it just seemed to break down all the time and we had no options up front and it's pointless putting crosses in to Gayle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
louistoon Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I don't like the lack of pace out wide when we put out sides like today. Ritchie's a smashing player but he isn't quick and that's further compounded by putting Perez on the other wing and two defensive full backs. Which is exactly why we needed to spend money on a winger in the transfer window. We already have Gayle, Atsu, Ritchie, Perez, Aarrons and Gouffran. I'd much rather have another centre forward and play Gayle out wide or in Diame's position. [/quote/] That you pards? Oh f*** off Gayle is not great as a main centre forward that much is clear, I can't think of one really good game he's had in that position. I would have a lot more confidence with him playing as a wing forward, where he often played for palace, or playing off someone like Mitrovic.

Guest ElCid Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Some of the suggestions on here: play Gayle out wide, start Mitro over Gayle, etc. Here's why I'm glad we have Rafa and not one of you guys in charge. Both should be starting especially at home - with Gayle on his own we have nobody to hold the ball up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I'm good with playing two up top, especially a physical forward like Mitro or the other guy we signed whose name I can never remember. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I've heard the atmosphere was poisonous in the gallowgate. Probably most of the fans who jumped on the bandwagon after tuesday's game expecting a similar result. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

shintonsghost Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 They were simply hungrier today. Dissapointing effort , we just seemed lacklustre and i cant forgive them for not "putting it in" . I cant work out Diame, hes a nothing player. All eleven players were shite, enough said.move on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All eleven players were s****, enough said.move on Yeah pissed off by the effort put in totally not acceptable - the whole defence was a shambles, the midfield none existent and up front weak as piss. The passing today was Sunday league standard. This against a poor team who conceded 4 on Tuesday but it's the second time this season we have been done like this and I think Rafa needs to look at his tactics and team selection again for home games - which I'm sure he will.

Tsunami Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 We were awful. Diame was awol and Mitro has to start ahead of Gayle. We were awful today What a terrible post this is. I was there, you weren't, I tell it as it was knob head. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Really poor today. Never got our passing going at all and resorted to long balls to full backs. Wasn't even like Wolves parked the bus, they just pressed in good areas and won loads of balls. Our 2 centre backs were atrocious. Thought we were crying out for a sub at half time and thought Rafa got that really wrong. Our worst performance since Southampton. Not as downhearted as usual after defeats as we've just won loads in a row, but we didn't deserve anything today Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Summed it up well Joeyt, my thoughts exactly. Thought Wolves were set up perfectly and executed it very well - we'll come up against a lot of teams like this and need to find a solution. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Christ, that was strange OG from Mbemba. If that was our only chances then the whole team needs a real kick up the arse, shocking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Surely Wolves pressing high suits us more? We're always better when teams give us space in behind. Just sounds like we were too sloppy to capitalise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just sounds like we were too sloppy to capitalise. We resorted to having to send long balls to Gayle and he had no chance against their huge centre backs because they didn't let us pass it out from goal kicks. Was obvious that they weren't going to let Shelvey have any space either Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy84 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Football Sounded like Wolves thoroughly deserved their win so fair play. As for us it's just so frustrating why we gave this kind of performance, not even being able to do the basics right FFS. The more Rafa learns about this group and quickly the better though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
