Frustrating. Worrying. One win and they'll be more fickle than anyone, especially the main gobshite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted December 27, 2025 Share Posted December 27, 2025 That opportunity where Barnes goes through but pulls it back to Gordon and finds a Man United defender, rather than giving Wissa a tap-in at the back stick sums it up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruno trying to thread it through to the winger or right back through the eye of a needle by creating an overlap. We never do it on the left hand side and the margin for error just seems to make the move so frustrating as it regularly just ends up not making anything out of it Yep. Said as much in the Howe thread. If all the fans can see it. Then I’d imagine elite level coaches and armies of analysts have noticed this too.

Wolves are looking like they won't get 11 points. The thing is they aren't getting battered week in week out. They've been in a lot of the games I've seen. Should of have got something at Arsenal and at our place. Drew at Spurs, should have won. Gave Liverpool a good game on Saturday. Don't get me wrong, they are shite. It's just that I dont think Man Utd are any great shakes, despite the slight upturn in results. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted December 29, 2025 Share Posted December 29, 2025 I agree, I don’t think the players are the problem at Wolves. They are a squad that is probably around the relegation spots but there’s no way they should be doing this poorly. Think that’s down to their off-field stuff and lack of ambition Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a very strange team, there's obviously sometimes not right with them, but they don't look anywhere near as bad as those record breaking bad teams.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 29, 2025 Share Posted December 29, 2025 Why would a player be at Wolves is my question. Seems because they play for another club in the group and they are moved around like raw materials in a manufacturing company or something, just because it's expedient for PSR or whatever accountancy tricks they want to do. Don't know if that's always the case but maybe it's a factor in why they have some talented players but not much culture or identity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They gave us a tough game, and I saw most of their match at Anfield, and for a good chunk of the second half, Wolves were well on top. They're clearly not good enough, but I don't think they are 2 points level bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree it will be much harder with the absentees but we would be extremely unhappy with anything but a win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holloway Posted December 30, 2025 Share Posted December 30, 2025 wasn't able to watch the match and wasn't expecting to view much at all going by most of the comments about creating next to fuck all. Having watched the highlights a couple of times , we did have a few decent moments in their penalty area. The best of these fell to Gordon who flashed it wide from a tight angle on the edge of the 6 yard area after an excellent move. Big Joe had a trademark lame sidefooted effort straight at their keeper whichn he should have done more with, and Miley skied one on his weaker foot. This was on top of Hall's thunderbastard, the handball shout, and some pullback by Barnes that loads mentioned but was inexplicably omitted from the highlights. Not enough maybe, but not quite as grim as I was expecting. At the other end, I fancy Pope to get down to that, Bruno caught again on the half turn for Tesco off the bar, and what the fuck was Schar dreaming about letting him in to chip just over.
