Anybody know who that guy who was stood in between wilder and Knill was. Noticed before they seem to listen to him?

Mr Prestige?

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

Good game wolves look top quality , shows how far we’ve come that it’s an even match.

Think people don’t realise how good we are

 

[BettingBlade]

Anyone know who Wolves are playing tonight? They don’t seem to be aware on Sky.

Head Coach and Head of Sports Science. An incredibly interesting role and man at the club.

 

[Iceybabey]

We seem a little tentative, probably because of their counter. We just need to be a bit more composed in the final third and we can get a 1niller.

Conor Coady v Wolves I think

 

[CentralQuay]

Wolves have created no more than us. And we aren’t creating anything because we don’t with this partnership upfront.

Have you seen Wolves play before?

They are not some expansive, free flowing attacking side.
They focus on neutralizing their opponents first.

Not too dissimilar at all to the way Blades or Burnley approach the game, but with a higher standard of individual player Jimenez/Traore/Jota etc.



Wolves need 3 points, a draw means they drop out of the top 4/5 race.

 

[ghandi]

After a good start we have dipped a bit.
Most generally playing ok but we need to get going more down the right hand side. Berge needs to demand the ball more and drive on. Baldock is game as ever and their wing back Jonny looks suspect

It could be but in this match and the previous 2 I see a reluctance by Baldock in passing to Berge.

 

[JS Blade]

In all honesty think we’ve been good so far. I think fleck and Mcgoldrick would have been ideal but everyone gets injuries.

strictly opinion and everyone’s allowed one but feel that Stevens had a blip after lockdown but first half been very good tonight!

 

[Lawrence]

He’s been part of the team for ages, forgot his name

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Ref already starting. Freekick to Wolves for fucking slipping.

Norwood was about 2 foot away from him when he started falling over.

Absolute dogshit

That was absolutely mind-boggling. It looked obvious in real-time – even worse on the replay.

 

[WORKSOPBLADE]

Get Moose on !

 

[Cheesebored]

Wolves have created no more thanus. And we aren’t creating anything because we don’t with this partnership upfront.

Wilder doesn't rate Sharp, didn't you know.

 

[FATTYFOULKE]

Matt Prestridge?

Matt Prestridge? First team coach.

Matt Prestridge?

Matt Prestridge?

Mr Prestige?

Bet it was Mark Prestige.

Cheers

 

[Bobby b]

Their back 3 are very wide apart which could give mousset or zivkovic a few options with a through ball

 

[Nade]

Who the geez opposite Souness? Black guy, bald. Not seen him before.

 

[west_yorks_blade]

Bet it was Mark Prestige.

Cheers

Prestige - 7th

 

[FATTYFOULKE]

Prestige - 7th

Can’t believe I quoted all those posts and still called him Mark

Prestige?

 

[CornwallBlade]

Anytime you like lads, do feel free to shoot, really, we don’t mind, just have a go

 

[CentralQuay]

Wilder doesn't rate Sharp, didn't you know.

Based on the 55 minutes so far, it's hardly surprising is it?

 

[nathxnblade]

Stevens is playing like Andy fucking Taylor

 

[BiggerBladeThanThou]

Ehhhh thought he was great 1st half

Ah ya kidding??

Gives it away for fun. Lack of early crosses. Frustrating.

 

[Geordie Blade]

I’m desperate for us to have a pop from the edge of the box. We seem to dink it back out wide every time.

 

[nathxnblade]

That was better by Stevens

 

[CentralQuay]

Great ball that, needed someone on the end of it Cheesebored

Yes.
Wolves have not created any more than us.

Chris Hussey

 

[Iceybabey]

Both teams lacking some serious end product.

 

[CentralQuay]

Yes.
Wolves have not created any more than us.

They don't create a lot.
Wolves are not big scorers.

This is what happens when two defensive, well organised and structured sides meet.
Feels like a training game.
