Match Thread Wolverhampton Wanderers v The Mighty Blades

[FriethBlade]

Holmes playing well

 

[Slim Man]

Holmes looks decent but for the life of we I can’t understand why we’ve gone back to a CAM when Evans behind Leonard and Fleck served us so well at Norwich.

Because Leonard was gash v Villa ?

Because Leonard was gash v Villa ?

It was his second game. He had 55 minutes. ‘Gash’ might be slightly over the top don’t you think?

The formation as an away formation was ideal and we should’ve stuck with it.

 

[Antonb]

Gone a bit flat

 

[FriethBlade]

Not really he was awful. Hardly touched the ball. Holmes has done twice as much already in half the time.

 

[Antonb]

Fuck me

 

[FriethBlade]

Taking the p1ss, tackle anybody ????

Feels like a cup game against a prem team

 

[Nade]

First time since Cardiff we've genuinely looked the second best team.

 

[RMBlade]

Good goal. I think we are playing okay. Holmes looks good but is like to see him drop a little deeper. He seems a bit isolated from Evans and fleck.

Spent like a prem team

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

No shame in losing to this lot lads

 

[Antonb]

Being out classed

 

[Lower Drop Blade]

Basham needs a "rest"

 

[Lawrence]

Wolves too good, United too slow and what’s up with Bash? What’s point in pointless 4, 5, 6 passes across the back

 

[JayGreen17]

Wilson has been annonimous again as well, not impressed so far, and I'm not sure on these few performances what he actually brings to the team more than Donaldson and Billy.

 

[FriethBlade]

Who is meant to be marking Costa.....Is it Fleck ? He's so good nobody wants to go near him!

Early days I know, but Wilson lacks presence imo

Please score

 

[JayGreen17]

Just put it out there, and as I've said all season, Basham is shit, and he's holding the team back, he's got excellent wort rate but technical ability is not there.

 

[FinchleyBlade]

With the money Wolves have spent they should be beating us quite easily, so not surprising there is such a gulf in class as they are better than us in every area.

They will finish top half in the premiership next season.

Do agree on Wilson though, I saw him a few times for Derby and was never impressed either. I don't think he brings us anything.

 

[Pittsburg Blade]

Well that was utter dogsh*te. Reminded me of the Wolves playoff final, except we’re fortunate it’s only two goals.

He's not shit though is he, I like the runs which he makes. We are up against an excellent side and struggling, no fault of one player.

 

[BushBlade]

Looked better after switching to four at the back. Maybe replace Basham with Leonard as Basham doesn't offer a lot going forward? Not quite over yet. Next goal is a big one.

 

[Antonb]

Basham Stevens not good enough for top 6 team . Fleck not driving forward enough. Need one of those runs that he does every 5 games. Holmes and baldock trying to make something happen . The Don on for Wilson.

A few more poor results and CW can put out a full team for the Cup!

 

[DeanLearner'sCat]

Between both boxes, we've done alright.

I have to say, I couldn't believe the line-up when I saw it. To go that open in midfield against this lot was always a massive risk. Not surprised he's changed it.

 

[FriethBlade]

Basham Stevens not good enough for top 6 team . Fleck not driving forward enough. Need one of those runs that he does every 5 games. Holmes and baldock trying to make something happen . The Don on for Wilson.

Excellent summary. Holmes and Baldock our 2 beat players. Both of them never say die attitude and looking to be positive. Rest of em too much sideways easy option passing.

 

[Razor_Blade]

Disappointing, that's all. Have our expectations raised above what our current team is capable of?

 

[Dnblade]

Take the 2 goals out and there's nothing in it.. an early goal in 2nd half and we're back in it...I'd like Lenny on for Bash.
