@OfficialWolves: SUBS | Ikeme, Ebanks-Landell, Doherty, Price, van La Parra, Ojo, Le Fondre. #WWFCvHCFC

 

[Tring Wolf]

Really surprised that Ikeme has been dropped. Big, big call unless he is struggling with injury.

 

[Deleted member 4456]

Already sat in my seat. Nervous as anything. Come on you Wolves!

 

[Sephiroth]

The lad has played massive Champions League games and is obviously highly rated. I dont mind this change.

 

[De Wolfs Mullet]

That is a surprise about Ikeme. I wonder if he's carrying a knock still from pre-season?

 

[Tring Wolf]

Very strong Hull side.

McGregor
Odubajo, Davies, Dawson, Robertson
Elmohamady, Huddlestone, Hayden, Clucas
Jelavic, Akpom

Hull's back 5 is Premier League quality IMO.

Best in this league by a country mile.

 

[Adrian_Monk]

Hull pose immense threat in wide areas, Sam Clucas was a player I urged us to sign during his Mansfield days and he'll be ably assisted down that flank by Robertson who made the transition from Scottish football seamlessly last season looking one of Hulls better players.

It's a good job then we have 2 strikers that are prem quality.

 

[Deleted at own request (WeAreTheWolves)]

I am actually annoyed Martinez is ahead of Ikeme.

If he was injured he wouldn't be on the bench, what a way to treat a player who has been one of the best under your management.

And this isn't a sympathy thing, Ikeme is more than capable at this level.

Loyalty in football eh.

 

[Tring Wolf]

I'd take a draw and a decent performance now.

Although a win and a dreadful performance would be eminently more preferable...

It's been mentioned all week that Ikeme is still carrying a knock and isn't 100 percent. Jonzy and another ITK poster has been saying this all week.

Not unless managed by mick

We had a loyal manager, remind me how that finished, on a downward out of control spiral into the 3rd tier with a bloated squad of overpaid dross that no one else wants.

Martinez may be great, may be poor, but I'm chuffed we finally have a manager who is ruthless. Long may it continue.

 

[Tring Wolf]

It must be an injury thing.

KJ obviously rates Ikeme as he brought him straight back in when fit last year even after Kuszchak had kept a number of clean sheets.

Either way, best of luck to young Emi today.

 

[Deleted at own request (WeAreTheWolves)]

That's what I meant by sympathy, in other cases players with lack of quality under Mick played.

Ikeme doesn't lack the quality.

So it's nothing like the past, this is dropping a guy who rarely lets you down and has been an integral part to your success.

And again, if injured, get it sorted now! Not sitting on the bench.

Bygone age, it's now all dog-eat-dog, money money money...

 

[JOSWolf]

This game worries me!

 

[Skrilla]

Absolutely ruthless by Kenny with regards to Ikeme, hope it pays off...

 

[MolineuxMixer]

This game worries me!

Try Cricket

 

[ricki herberts moustache]

looking forward to my first live game of the season

 

[OldWolvesfart]

Tough, game will give a clue to our potential for the season.
Just listening to Waggy, Richards and Bailey on the pre-Sky game taking about the 70's.
I think our youngsters can do us proud this season.

 

[ricki herberts moustache]

come on you Wolves!

 

[Ewok vs Wolf]

Expect our defence to be tested today, big game for Martinez i think he'l be fine

my info is that martinez has been brought in with a view / expectation that he will be no. 1 keeper, ikeme is aware of this and is not happy.
........................

i'm shocked at how soon this has happened though.
the exact info i had was that martinez was brought in to be no. 1 because management was worried that another injury for ikeme would mean an operation.
that doesn't fit with ikeme being on the bench

my other info was of a major bost-up between rvlp and gallen / jackett

 

[DasWolf]

Afobe almost scores from kickoff after a bad backpass

 

[dane]

close

 

[DasWolf]

Deflected clearance goes to Dicko, who fires it narrowly wide.

 

[dane]

and again

hope we don't rue these early misses

 

[sheffwolf]

Wow, should be 2 up!!

 

[Andy]

Should have scored both of those

 

[Erick1011]

Finally home. Had the great idea of taking my girlfriend home on no gas, to another town, with the cat in the car!

 

[Sutton Wolf]

Two sitters missed by Wolves already

 

[IrchyWolf]

How on earth aren't we 2-0 up? Can't rely on Hull being so generous for the rest of the game.

 

[DawleyWolf]

We seem to be playing (bad) long ball when we do get the ball again all

 

[dane]

defenders punting long balls upfield again

 

[DasWolf]

Second chance was a corner from the first chance. Wouldn't have ever been 2-0.

 

[DasWolf]

All Wolves at the moment.
