HaydnNUFC Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Been 8 1-1 draws in PL between us and Wolves, including a run of 5 1-1s in a row between 2019-2021 All of the games between us and them at SJP since they came back up have been on Sky as well. Bizarre hard on they've got for this fixture. Just want us to attack them from the off. Get the crowd involved, fuck it. Just go after them. Take out the past month and a bit's frustration out on them. With Isak, ASM and Targett all hopefully starting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only decent game I recall is when they beat us 1-2 late on. They should’ve had someone sent off, possibly Boly? I think Lascelles is still in the Strawberry having a pint he backed off that much for their winner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, the game was earmarked to be boycotted but the Magpie Group(?) cancelled it as it was going to have feeble uptake. Yedlin was sent off at 1-1 I think but we were still the better side even down to 10 men. And aye, Boly assaulted Perez I think and got away with it. Have tried to forget the goal, was in stoppage time I think? Parried shot from the keeper that they swept up. Was under Benitez but grim times, those. Think we only won like 2 home games in that first half of 2018-19. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Early goals hopefully or I think it'll be a tough game. Lopetegui is smart. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Remember in the season we ended 4th under Bobby we'd had a bit of a dip then smashed Everton 6-2. I think this could be the game it all comes together. 4-0 Newcastle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We simply have to start finishing off chances though and there’s pressure on players to do so because it won’t be long until summer and the final 3rd is where we’ll see upgrades.

Wilson Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Can already feel the tense atmosphere inside the ground for this one. Joelinton going to be a massive miss. Need 3 points to snap out of this little rough patch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 I wonder if Joelinton missing might force Howe into a slight formation change and look to start with the 4-2-3-1. Or if it is just Willock in for him. I think Targett, ASM and Isak should all be starting. With Schar to come back in, as well. But based on Howe’s time here. I can’t see him making 4-5 changes from one league game to the next. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Pope Trippier Schar Botman Burn (Targett at half time) Willock Bruno Longstaff ASM Isak Almiron (Gordon at half time) Result: Hard to pick between 0-0, 1-0, 0-1, and 1-1. I think it'll be tight. I'll go 1-1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 I think this will be similar to Fulham at home and if we're not winning later on I expect Howe will throw the kitchen sink at it. Other than a home defeat to Bournemouth, Wolves have been handy under Lopetegui. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Massive game this, really need to get back to form after a difficult few weeks. I’d go for 4 changes myself - Targett, Willock, Maxi & Isak all to come in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Feels very must win, for some reason. Targett, Isak, ASM must start, imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Parka Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 (edited) I think we will settle in midtable before the season is out. Can see a tight, scoreless draw being the outcome here. Frustrating but our mad pre-world cup form was just a crazy run. As long as George Ndah doesn't score again I'll be happy.

What about the mad run from late Jan-May last year? Have we not had more good runs of games and form under Howe than bad? It feels like our trajectory has been rising at an unsustainable rate. So it was always going to level off eventually. I think suggesting we’ll finish mid-table at this stage is a bit premature, personally. It’s not like we are playing badly every week and we now finally have a few options in the squad to change things up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
