IT’S MAAAAAAATCHDAAAAAAYYYYYY!!
How are we all? Still on a high after Sunday? I know I am. Today though is where our season really gets serious in my opinion. Sounds a bit crazy, but what I mean is we’ve done better than everyone expected (even most of us on here!) but it still feels like we’re just motoring along. I’ve said all season we’re not really European contenders, but actually a positive result tonight and we’re right in amongst it.
Tough game tonight. I know they’re everyone’s punchbag at the minute but Utd still have some very good players, which makes them dangerous. If Fernandes, or Rashford, or Garnacho have a great game they could make all the difference. But we should be confident. We seem to be much more of a team than them, much more confident, much more in form. It’s set up quite nicely really.
In terms of line-up, the only change I’d be tempted to make would be Ait-Nouri for Doherty. But if we went unchanged from Sunday that wouldn’t bother me at all. Players are playing well, they know their roles.
Sa
Kilman Dawson Toti
Semedo Doyle Lemina Doherty

Bentley, Bueno, Bueno, Ait-Nouri, Gomes, Hodge, Sarabia, Chirewa, Fraser
Bench looks a little stronger as well with Gomes and Sarabia back.
Should be a good atmosphere tonight, Molineux under the floodlights always seems to bring an extra 5-10% out of the crowd and the players.
It’s a real chance to lay down a marker. If we could get ourselves level with Newcastle, Brighton, Chelsea, then I think everyone (including us) would have to sit up a little bit and look at us as a better team. Because we were written off at the beginning, people sort of see us as a team who are just punching over their weight whereas actually we’re a really good side. Beating Man Utd would be a good piece of evidence!
Whether you’re following from Molineux, across the Black Country or across the world, enjoy the game and let’s get those three points lads!
COYW!
