If Wolves can manage to win this game it would make for a lovely day of football

Don’t think so yet unless he’s “lost the dressing room”. I’ll say the same thing I’ve said all along, we’ll be able to make the judgements next season after another proper transfer window.

 

At this point you could still argue that the squad isn’t strong enough all round to mount a proper challenge in all competitions. He wants them to play a particular way and a few players are either not capable, young and developing or just exhausted. The bigger question is whether playing that way is sustainable or is inevitably going to result in the sort of injury list that precludes a successful season.

 

I’m still in the “benefit of the doubt” stage. Obviously if we fundamentally changed the way we played it might yield different results but I think you can still call us a club in transition. If we’re seeing the same issues next year then I think you can reasonably say “mate, it’s not going to work”. I mean, today’s defence was a (in truth) #3 keeper, a player making his second PL start, a couple of young defenders (one of whom is plainly worn out) and a teenage CM. The excuses are there.
 

We’re still capable of beating anyone in a given game. It’s just obviously frustrating to keep losing games in the same manner week in and week out, and easy to lose sight of the bigger picture, which I still think is positive.

Wolves do far too much in their own third and middle third. So much effort for minimal gain. They need to calm it down, find a simple way to progress the ball into the final third and then exert all that energy closer to the opposition goal.

[SAK]

Is it foggy in the Black Country because this Amazon feed looks a bit like a 90s série A match after the flares.

[Mike]

Man I think the entire world wanted that to go in.

@leffe186 has to be up there as one of the most sensible Spurs fans I've come across like. 

 

Do you reckon Son is on the way out? Just looks like his legs have gone.

[La Parka]

Hojlund is bad.

Cost more than Isak

From what I’ve seen so far we should be a nightmare for this Man Utd team to deal with. Like Wolves but with another 5 or 6 Cunha’s. Would love it if we beat them, love it!

[toon25]

70-odd million wasn't he ?

[AyeDubbleYoo]

How come Cunha hasn’t been banned? 

[54]

What a dreadful half of football  

[Bimpy474]

Cunha work rate is mental, plus he's quality. Love us to get him, be a bit too expensive mind.

[Numbers]

Cunha on a different level to the rest of the Wolves team.

[LionOfGosforth]

Hojlund is like if you transported Kerry Dixon from 1987 to the modern game and just left him to it

Was entertaining in its own way, ok I am 7 or 8 tins deep…

[David Edgar]

It was a bit of fun but bereft of quality.

 Got an old friend who’s a Newcastle fan and it used to wind him up that I was always the “Voice of Reason”.

 

Again, I’ll say what I’ve said all season about Son - if he gets enough rest he’s still got it, just obviously he’s older and it’ll be in shorter bursts. He’s still had a handful of brilliant games this season. The plan was to rotate him with Odobert, Moore, Werner and Richarlison on the left. Odobert and Richarlison have barely played due to injury, Moore has been out with a virus for months, and Werner has had injuries too…but is also just Werner.

 

If his legs were truly gone he wouldn’t have had those great games at all. Plenty of Spurs fans think he’s gone, but they tend to be the reactionary ones I think.

Aye, when he gets the ball, time stands still. 

[pubteam]

Cunha is an utter waste of talent in that wolves side.

[Turnbull2000]

Sounds like Anderson has another strong game for Forest?

The rat is off
