Kanj Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Well every club in the league look miles ahead of us so far. Wolves look great again. we'd be flying from the off this season too IMO if we kept Rafa and Rondon IMO. Even if we sold Perez I certainly believe we'd have that same brilliant compact defense, and Rondon would have scored in both of our matches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Froggy Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Much more positive. Controlled a very good side away from home for the majority of the game. Missed penalties and wonder strikes won't go against you every week. Don't understand Pogba taking the pen like, especially when Rashford is so good at them.

Can't hit them at that height unless you have it right in the corner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToonArmy1892 Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 It's because OGS has no authority and is just one of the lads that that shit happens. Mind, i seem to remember it happen with us under Rafa at one point. Does my head in that shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 i hate wolves because they have so much ambition and hope and (2x fucked us) out of more points last season and if we had that same type of ownership + Rafa or even a manager of their quality + our support = by gahd.

Gallowgate End Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Wolves 31% possession 1 shot 0 shots on target 0 touches in opposition box Will Gary call it a disgrace or boring? No chance. Wolves with the 2nd lowest xG of the Premier League weekend just like last week. They’re overrated attackingly but underrated defensively. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deuce Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 This James kid loves to throw himself on the ground it seems. Crowd was already on his back for it, and he does it again to get an early yellow card. He's got that Ashley Young technique nailed down really strong. Always amazes me how Messi, despite being small, stays on his feet and is able to out power even the biggest of opponents. Messi has tremendous lower-body strength. Kun Agüero as well.

Disco Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Nuno is a Mourinho loyalist so it’s no surprise, but aye I always lumped them with us last season as style and effectivity albeit they have the better players in the middle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leffe186 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I really can’t remember ever giving less of a s*** abut football than this season . Didn’t realize this game was on until browsing the BBC. Jesus and that's as a fan of a club who are going places too. Imagine how we feel Personally I still love it as a neutral and from a fpl perspective I've avoided posting too much about it on here because I was worried I'd overstep the mark. Obviously I've become pretty disillusioned with many aspects of the game, despite my own team being on the up and up. My wife's a Villa fan, and I've had similar conversations with Villa fans, but many of them are suddenly back engaged because their team are not as shite, got promoted, and have spent money. I mean, I get it, but it doesn't change the underlying problems, and it rather suggests that the real season they became disillusioned with football was just that their team were shite at it. Which brings me here, I guess. I didn't post too much about it because I suspect I was concerned I was being a self-righteous bastard who felt walking away while we were good was somehow more meaningful than, say, walking away while Mike Ashley systemically destroys your club. I don't want to be like that. Someone did say essentially "cry me a river", but I truly am sad that the sport I love has come to this. I can't be neutral because I've been a fan for 40+ years - there is no neutral . I still wanted Man U to get stuffed tonight, as soon as I realized they were playing. Anyway, that's my slightly sad rant over, just got off work and going to see if an IPA helps . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I think that is a fair post. I know people who support clubs ranging from League Two to the Premier League and quite a lot of them seem to be disillusioned with the modern game. I'm sure it is partly due to the fact I have lost interest in NUFC. But I have found my love of the game has diminished quite a bit over the last few years. The money is obscene and the gap just gets bigger to the top/rich clubs. The cheating/faking injury has gone way too far, I don't like how VAR has been implemented, the atmosphere at games has gone, most of the shows and punditry does my head in and a lot of the social media stuff from players and super fans is pure . I'm sure there is more, but I've fell out of love with it at the top level, for sure. It certainly doesn't seem sustainable or particularly enjoyable anymore.
