Gary O'Neil - tactics

[Starsky]

His next job will be in L1.

Hobbs - admit the mistake and do it quickly.

 

[JOSWolf]

We had just got back in the game. He then took off a striker for a midfielder. We concede. He then brings on a striker for a midfielder.

The Bournemouth fans warned us. I am already dreading the Liverpool game.

 

[Will Wolf]

We take our striker off and bring on a midfielder at 1-1, clueless. Sasa was ready on the bench and is on form

 

[Cousins78]

His next job will be in L1.

Would anyone touch him if wolves got rid

 

[Nige100]

Poor management that to bring Traore on and effectively looking to see out a 1-1 on the 71st minute.

 

[JOSWolf]

His next job will be in L1.

He will be lucky to get that.

 

[oldgoldheart]

I got pelters for describing oneil as a chancer. But he is. He is clueless. Our squad is weaker now than the end of last season and so is our “coaching” staff. We are in a relegation fight and we might not make it through

 

[Rhyl Wolf]

Watching (admittedly only MOTD highlights) noticeable how quickly other cubs spring from defence to attack. We tend to labour and it's painful to watch at times. Terrible defending and I'm genuinely looking forward to hearing / reading of the Silva / Boubs switch? There are no gimmes in this league (including the 3 promoted clubs) and I'm slightly concerned after the last minute optimism of the deadline day.

 

[WolvesAndCows]

We had just got back in the game. He then took off a striker for a midfielder. We concede. He then brings on a striker for a midfielder.

Ohhh hokey-cokey

 

[Topcat]

Wouldn’t say the players look disinterested but more clueless. No shape, no pattern to our play, utter shambolic.

GON might come across well in interviews etc, but there’s a reason for that, covering up for incompetence and ineptitude at this level.

I’m sure he’d be more suited to league 1 as he needs to gain more experience as the Prem is way above his capabilities.

Hopefully he is thought of as just a stop gap manager within the higher echelons of the board?

Thanks but no thanks Gary.

 

[martin120863]

He’ll be gone (hopefully) within 10 games

 

[wolfslair]

Everyone I was watching with said the same.

Semedo was entering liability mode and Silva was totally anonymous all game.

Worrying that he can't see that.

Semedo was good first half, then they started picking on him as soon as the second half started.

Doc should have come on at the 50 min mark.

Fabio off at half time for sasa

And sarabia off at half time for hwang.

Those subs at those times would have made a massive difference to The flow of the game.

New Bueno needs to come in straight after the international break.

 

[Glow69]

Same questions will be asked when a new manager comes along like the last 3.

We know this team rolls over when it gets tough. Been the same for years now.

Hopefully Bueno, Jean and Doyle can add abit of *******s to the team.

 

[Stafford]

Poor management that to bring Traore on and effectively looking to see out a 1-1 on the 71st minute.

To be honest I thought it was gonna improve us going forward at the time

 

[TheConcourse]

So I've watched a screen no commentary, something was in his mind when he did Boubs for Fabio. None of us (I assume) are Premier League coaches, but maybe someone can explain what was in his mind? Something more than, we're happy with a point surely?

Has to be the only thing on his mind. Game was there for us and he fancies a point.

I said when he was first appointed and his press conferences he is an almost identical clone of the clown he doomed southampton……

 

[Boss Hogg]

Need to move to a back 5 if we want any hope of defending with any assurance with this current squad of players - at least Doc would be a goal threat.

 

[Big Saft Kid]

We had just got back in the game. He then took off a striker for a midfielder. We concede. He then brings on a striker for a midfielder.

Utterly, utterly clueless. He can't go soon enough for me, but the club will probably leave it too late and we'll already be so far adrift that we will go down anyway. Falling out with and getting rid of Lopetegui will prove to be a very false economy, mark my words. Yes he was an awkward bugger but he knew what he was doing, unlike O'Neil.

 

[WolvesAndCows]

Hopefully the new signings can give the midfield a bit of oomph. It needs it.

 

[Ches78]

I know we shouldn't start thinking these things so early, but can't help wondering if he'll be GON by Xmas - and we'll be in another desperate survival situation.

I think our only hope is that Sasa quickly gets fit (and stays fit) enough to start games, and our CB partnership is sorted - I'm not sure if that means giving Dawson the armband or dropping him for the new guy... Oh and hopefully one of the new guys is the next Messi.

 

[Royal wolf]

To be honest I thought it was gonna improve us going forward at the time

That’s the thing the change could’ve worked and we could’ve taken control of the game and won, O’Neil is a genius. It didn’t work so he’s a moron.

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

Not sure what his tactics are

We press well first half

Then stand off second half

We don’t play with wingers

Time to move to a back 5 or bring back NUNO

 

[RMNottm]

We should not put hope in one player it is a team game

 

[Arky_R]

Wasting everyone’s time with this appointment.
Get a goal back and what do we do ffs

 

[MolineuxMixer]

GON will be gon before Xmas!

 

[BCWolf]

Fluked a win against Everton and that will be his epitaph.

I genuinely do not see us winning another game (league or cup) until December. The games against Luton and Bournemouth already loom like cup finals and he will bottle both of them. The team looks disinterested, confused and unprepared.

My guess is he goes after the Bournemouth or Newcastle games.

Shi is still the real problem at Wolves, but our Gary is hopeless.

 

[Brockmoorwolf]

Say no more....

 

[Wigan Wolf]

One word - clueless

 

[sedgwolf1980]

Our manager is Gary O’Neil and our captain is Max Kilman.

That tells you all you need to know.

 

[Wolf 82]

What a baffling sub that was, take a forward off and replace him with a defensive mf why didn't he put Sasa on with cunha off. Awful from o'neil

Was made all the more ridiculous by the fact none of our 3 defensive midfielders seemed to be able to defend from that moment onwards.

 

[StaffordWolf]

Got a feeling we might ride it out with him in the hope he comes good. I think a manager deserves at least 10 games, but I'll admit that the more I see the more sceptical I'm getting about his ability.

 

[Oh When the Wolves]

GON will be gon before Xmas!

No he won’t

Why would they pay him off

Why would they hire another manager?

They don’t gm want to spend any money at all.

 

[Chisels_n_ommers]

Perhaps change the thread title to Gash O'Neils Tactics.

Or for brevity, perhaps just

Gash Tactics

 

[Bugsy911]

GON will be gon before Xmas!

Should never have had the job in the frst place were in real trouble.

I'd sack him now and use the break now to replace.

 

[wallace]

We looked like a load of choir boys being managed by the vicar playing the secondary school bullies coached by the seemingly nice Mr Woy

 

[wolf of sedgley]

Gary O’Lage

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

That’s the thing the change could’ve worked and we could’ve taken control of the game and won, O’Neil is a genius. It didn’t work so he’s a moron.

Yes, but that was my question really. I mean anything you do might work by total fluke, but was there really a plan to it? I think if something goes wrong but the fans can see the idea, then you get a pass, but if everyone thinks it looks bizarre and it goes wrong, then you look like an idiot. We've seen it often with the 'go to a back 3 with 10 minutes left' mentality for a example, sometimes works, not always. Before the game I'd have taken a point, but the best way to get it was still to cause them problems. Sasa for Silva was surely the obvious one?

 

[Bill McCai]

Would any other PL club swap their manager for ours?

 

[Glow69]

Seems like a repeat of conversations of Nunos end, Bruno tenure and Julens!

Our players are overrated to ****.

 

[Starsky]

We'd approach the 3 promoted sides and ask for a manager swap. They'd **** themselves laughing.

It's season 6 in the PL for us.

If we get 20 points, I'd be amazed.
