RE: Match Thread - Wolverhampton Wanderers - Owlkev71 - 14-12-2014

Lavery needs the ball to his feet, not long balls.

Never been a Nuhiu fan but he does usually at least try, but yesterday he just didn't seem bothered.

Thought we could have done with an extra man in midfield in the second half, they cut through us down the middle in the 2nd half yesterday, maybe Semedo could have put a stop to that??

Cant see SG getting the sack unless we lose 6-7 games in a row.

"SG needs to have a re-think. Nuhui isn't good enough but Lavery & May isn't going to work. Can May play as a lone striker? Where can we find a big striker who can work with May & chip in with a few goals?"

Could go 4231, with Drenthe Left, McGuire right and McGugan in the centre, with Semedo & Lee the holding midfielders. McGugan showed he's a good passer in the first half yesterday. Problem is SG will stick with 442 Doh

Managers have to stand or fall doing it their way. BL listened to the fans in his final weeks in charge & he failed not doing it his way. SG has said more than once that he is a 442 man so that is the way we will play. DJ tended to play 442 at home and 4231 away which is what SG did at first but this season he has stuck with 442 except for the Brighton match.

The problem after Nuhui went off is that Wolves knew that we couldn't hit it in the air so it made their defending easier so they went from defending like jellies to reasonably competent.

I think 4231 works best when the guy up top can compete well in the air. SG doesn't want Madine so we are kind of stuck with Nuhui. Maybe look for a loan signing in January, Kone from Everton maybe although Martinez might want him for their first team.

Thanks for all your nice compliments imre. I love you too. Heart

Hustler magazine is a bit too raunchy for me. I prefer my 1950s collection of Playboys. Thumb up

In black and white. Whistle Whistle

Btw. I miss consilio and chezzie. They take the edge off imre a bit. Sad


RE: Match Thread - Wolverhampton Wanderers - Statesideowl - 14-12-2014

What happened to Consilio and Chez? lol

I think May might be better off up front on his own, as long as we don't play hoof ball and keep it down we'd stand a chance. Nuhui as we all know can hold up play well by my word I don't think I've ever seen a worse 'goal scorer' in my life, the sitters this guy has missed is criminal.
Not all his fault nor is it down to him really, as a team we've missed some golden opportunities that most other teams score against us. 16 goals in 21 games... not even 1 goal a game is it.

It's got to the point now when the WW commentators say we're on the break and about to shoot!!! and I already say to myself " Missed, well wide" and sure enough those are the next words out of the commentators mouth.

Just to update this thread, Daffodils won the Smartass for the nearest attendance but no one predicted all the correct results. BML has been updated!


RE: Match Thread - Wolverhampton Wanderers - St Charles Owl - 14-12-2014

We have had no where near enough goals from the defence this season, some of that is down to them missing when they get the chance but also I thinks its also as a result of our poor set piece deliveries!! At least in the last few games we have seen better deliveries from Drenthe, hopefully that will contine and Loovens or Lees will get their goals!!

May needs to start taking his chances but it has been good to see him making telling runs and us actually trying to play him through when he does, that is definitely an improvement on him dropping deep or going out wide to try to create something!!

Loovens played pretty well yesterday & made one great saving tackle. His miss was nowhere near as bad as the three by May & the two be Lee. Still a miss though.

McGugan is one of the best with set pieces in the division but still Maguire takes all free kicks.


RE: Match Thread - Wolverhampton Wanderers - St Charles Owl - 14-12-2014

Maguires set pieces are generally awful, onceagain he is living off past performances!!! But surely its SG who lets him take them and not making sure someone else takes them instead. Both Drenthe and McGugan seem better than maguire most of the time!!!

From my perspective I would rather Loovens and Lees play their best football in defence rather than in attack but it is noce when a Ch chips in with a goal from a set piece!! We haven't had many defenders who can score and still defend well, Llera and Reda both got goals but were generally disasters waiting to happen in defence!!!

Madine wont solve the problem off goals either  Doh  and afobes shit  Laugh can we sign Fryatt on loan ? hes not in the forest team i dont think ?

May will undoubtedly come good.

The corner from Drenthe was at a fair pace & Loovens couldn't get over it but deflected it just wide. As I said it was a chance missed but not as bad as some others or the one at Blackburn.
