Hwang - a positive thread

[BridgnorthWolf Inc]

Ok, I'm going to swim against the tide here and say I think he could do really well feeding off Sasa. I'm thinking of the early days when he and Raul seemed to have a really good understanding.

Given the right system i think he could be a productive player and I would love him to silence those who have been well, let's just say, a little 'unkind'.

This is not meant to be a confrontational posting just a positive one!

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

Did OK in the first two games, we've really done him no favours with how he's been used at other times. There's still hope he might contribute in a front 2 (there I've managed go keep it positive).

 

[Streathamwolf]

I agree and if he feels supported at Molineux there is more chance of him regaining confidence and form.

 

[goldfish]

He's not gonna hide and Lage isn't gonna hide him. So there's not a lot to lose by getting behind him.

We can all post about how rubbish we think he is (note: I don't), and abuse him at matches. But then what? He feels unloved, plays worse and we feel great cos we were right. Brilliant. Well done us.

 

[JadeWolf]

He played pretty well at Leeds on day one. Just needs a goal I think.

 

[ToastedWanderer]

He's still part of the pack, lets crack on..

 

[Matt]

Important to get behind him and try to get his confidence back up now that we know he'll be with us this season. Hopefully, he can rediscover some form.

 

[Direwolf]

As a supporter happy to be supportive. Constant criticism doesn't improve performance.

Come on Hwang show us what your about you can do it lad. Prove the doubters wrong.

 

[RMNottm]

He is better driving forward and around the box. We need to commit more to attacks rather than play with one or two in the box.

I will support him but he needs a goal and a decent performance.

 

[arctic rime]

I guess we now have to get behind him.

 

[Eastyorksyeltz]

He is part of the club. There is clearly a confidence issue. We cannot afford to make that any worse. Have to get behind him and bring him back into the pack. How Bruno handles this, by judicial and effective use from the bench - as opposed to just stubbornly throwing him to the lions - is a big test of character for both parties. We do have a part to play in this though, as "supporters" rather than just customers.

 

[Leominster_Wolf]

Agree - Just keep him off penalty duty!!

 

[lets all have a disco]

Yes I think it might help him if we stick him up top and not left back......

 

[tonto]

People who have rated our transfer business may well re-evaluate if he could come good
Wouldn’t it be nice to be thinking thank God we never let him go
Come on kid do us proud score a hatful

Fair enough, I don’t think he’s doing very well a the moment but he has shown glimpses at the start of his wolves career of being a very good attacking player, his work ethic is good and he doesn’t get stroppy when things aren’t going his way.

im not sure he has been played the best way that suits his strengths and that’s not a dig at anyone I think try playing him upfront next to another striker or just behind a striker and you might see the best of him, but no more penalties for a while .

 

[Oldvic161]

Agree - Just keep him off penalty duty!!

And away from the defence too

 

[USA Wolf]

He’ll score if we play up the middle

 

[NewOrder306]

And away from the defence too

That...

 

[Erick1011]

I think he needs to get back to doing the basics right. Once that's done, he'll start thriving again.

 

[Ches78]

I think Hwangs alright and has probably had a bit more flack than deserved because of our teams general incompetence in and around the final 3rd. I don't have any hard feelings about the missed penalty or crap clearance either - these things happen. Just hope he can keep fit and find some of the form he had in those first handful of games he played for us...

 

[bod101]

along with the tactics

 

[wolfslair]

Or defending duties around the box…..

 

[Sheffield Wolf]

He is better driving forward and around the box. We need to commit more to attacks rather than play with one or two in the box.

I will support him but he needs a goal and a decent performance.

Copy and paste for Jimenez, Traore, Neto, Podence, Guedes.

 

[NJWolves69]

A streaky player who has clearly lost all confidence. Needs to settle down and focus on just doing the basics, but we've been playing him out of position his whole tenure. He had success playing off Haaland and Patson Daka in a 442, why not try him up top with Raul or Sasa? He's clearly not a winger and can't lead the line himself.

He might just flat out be not good enough, and it doesn't matter what position you're playing if can't trap a wet bag of cement, but might be worth experimenting with him a bit as opposed to playing him out of position week after week. After all he's not going anywhere anytime soon...

 

[Rabid Wolf]

along with the tactics

Wait we have tactics I thought our tactics was to press into their 3rd then give the ball away?

 

[Muscat]

Oh can we not please?

An abysmal player, who we never should have spent money on.

 

[Hoganstolemywife]

I think his off the ball movement is absolutely brilliant and he's quick and strong.

But he's not shown the technical side required of a PL footballer

 

[superwolves]

It's nice to see abit of positivity. Surely every player will perform better with the right backing. We may be relying on our support this season if we lose that then things could get even more difficult

 

[Sketchead]

Played better in his first couple of appearances this season than we've seen from Neto and Guedes so far. Podence too but he's scored one so benefit of the doubt.

Hwang isn't near any of them technically but it's remarkable how much stick he gets when others get nothing. I don't really like giving any players stick, but if we're going to, would be nice if it was dished out fairly based on everybody's performances.

Decent squad option and not at all disappointed that he's still here.

 

[VancouverWolf]

He’ll score if we play up the middle

I agree but, imo, we don’t play up and through the middle enough.
We depend too much on using the wings.

 

[jrpb-3]

I think he’s always looked better as part of a front 2 than when up front on his own,
So will be interesting to see, assuming he gets any game time paired with Sasa

 

[tonto]

Oh can we not please?

An abysmal player, who we never should have spent money on.

What part of that comment is positive?

 

[The Pie Poker]

He's just the Mol Mix whipping boy at present... Just slightly ahead of Raul

I don't think he's as bad as everyone is making out. Our entire forward line are struggling so he's definitely not alone.

He's probably low on confidence and being Korean a little isolated by language.

Lets all get behind the lad!!

 

[Krispy Kreme]

He attracts lots of Korean fans.

 

[VancouverWolf]

Wait we have tactics I thought our tactics was to press into their 3rd then give the ball away?

Not quite but you’re close.
Our tactic is press into their 3rd., pass the ball sideways over and over, and then give the ball away.

 

[Sussex Wolf]

As I said to the Leeds fan. He started well last season and as others said, also this season. Agree that he might thrive in a front two with Sasa since I think their strengths complement each other. A few assists for the big man, and no penalties or rubbish clearances, and people will start to get behind him again.

In general, now the window is done and we’ve had a big clear out, I think it’s time for a clean slate for our lads. Let’s get behind them and look forward not back.

 

[Ponty]

I'm positive that we were bloody fools to turn down any reasonable offer for him but now he's with us he'll get my support but I won't hold my breath. In the spirit of the thread with a big centre forward he might get more to feed off and maybe a goal will see his confidence rocket and he'll go on a scoring run...

 

[Rabid Wolf]

Not quite but you’re close.
Our tactic is press into their 3rd., pass the ball sideways over and over, and then give the ball away.

I thought that was Plan B?

 

[Bryce]

He has pace and initially showed he could finish. Confidence is shot and he needs to scuff one in off both posts to start the ball rolling. Mind you the whole attack could do with that. Perhaps this week then .

 

[VancouverWolf]

We have a plan B?
