Manchester City v Wolves comms thread.

[sillytuna]

Such a difference with these forwards on.

 

[djmikeydickens]

We've not been great but in perspective we are playing one of the best teams in the world. It's the games against the bottom half which will see us stay up or drop. Keep the faith

 

[Hawkguy]

I love the pace on the corners from Sarabia

 

[Asthmatic Wolf]

Once again no CF to attack a cross

 

[Jeru360]

It’s frustrating because Wolves or most dangerous on the counter but certain players will always slow it down.
Looks Sarabia will not be one of those players. Looking forward to seeing more of him.

 

[Tring Wolf]

Frustrating. Should still be in this but for those two awful individual mistakes.

Would have been interesting if we had managed to keep it 1-0 until the last 15.

 

[Wolf316]

Such a difference with these forwards on.

To be fair City have taken there foot off the gas and we’re seeing more of the ball.

 

[TelfordWolf]

Looks like having to dream about the Nuno era tonight. Wasn’t it brilliant. Sellers and shi hang your heads

We’re literally playing Man City at the Etihad. Look at their results at home this season…

 

[Clipboard]

I cannot believe how a successful business like Fosun can spend so much money and still not have an average PL striker on the books.

It is staggering.

Too right. It's killing us. Not just today.

 

[RMNottm]

We. Look so much better pushing forward.

 

[GigaWolf]

Sarabia, welcome to the wolves High and Wide Club!

His effort was mile high club mate

 

[Bugsy911]

If we don't sign a striker whi has goals in him we're gonna be in real trouble.

 

[VancouverWolf]

Yes, it is City but they’re not supermen.

We lose the ball too easily……..can’t make simple passes

 

[sillytuna]

To be fair City have taken there foot off the gas and we’re seeing more of the ball.

Sure but the signs were there when we decided they hadn't scored enough. The mistakes were totally self inflicted. If anything, that's a concern.

 

[Thank you Sir Jack]

Frustrating. Should still be in this but for those two awful individual mistakes.

Would have been interesting if we had managed to keep it 1-0 until the last 15.

Just what I had been hoping for.

 

[Zakalwe]

Why have we spent the entire game playing passes across the back, given that City has been pressuring that all game?

 

[Hoganstolemywife]

If we don't sign a striker whi has goals in him we're gonna be in real trouble.

Agreed.

I wish Jimenez still had it but he doesn't.

 

[Hawkguy]

Cheers Michael Owen

Wasn't blaming him?

But it is the story of our season lol

 

[Wonder Boyo]

Hard to be positive when you've only crossed the half way line 8 times in 85 minutes though to be fair

Agreed. I'm not feeling positive about the performance, it's been pretty awful. Its just the knee-jerk extreme reactions.

Not complaining about it, I've been on here long enough to expect it in the commentary thread. I'm just surprised that anyone else is surprised about it.

 

[Hawkguy]

Nothing like stating the obvious , when you're down and out !!!

I meant it as the goalie was stuck in position and couldn't make the save

 

[Bugsy911]

Agreed.

I wish Jimenez still had it but he doesn't.

On todays showing again he's finished , I'd have loved Ings and now no idea who we could get it's a complete mess.

 

[Pagey]

Dawson is not even playing he is not eligible to play today are you actually watching the match or just whinging on this board like all the other bunch of whingers.

Just thinking would he be able to improve our persistent passing out?

 

[The Clock]

The one thing that really puzzles me is that we clearly practice and have instructions to play in our own six yard box.
Why don’t we do the same thing for the other six yard box?
It’s bizarre

 

[Hawkguy]

3 minutes??

Give me a real ****ing time keeper.

Multiple subs. Multiple goals. Multiple VAR checks.

 

[Hoganstolemywife]

Very good point actually!

 

[Sussex Wolf]

3 mins? Are you having a laugh?

 

[WolfInSheep'sClothing]

Because modern football says you have to, even in the scenario where the risks clearly outweigh the potential benefits.

 

[Mr Sizzle]

Wolves can only compete when Ruben plays out of his skin.. when he can’t, we struggle so much.

 

[VancouverWolf]

Don’t worry …..Shi has Beale on speed dial

 

[Montana_Man]

I feel for Cunha.. just about the only one who tries to make a run and nobody even tries a pass...looks rightly frustrated

 

[Zakalwe]

3 minutes??

Give me a real ****ing time keeper.

Multiple subs. Multiple goals. Multiple VAR checks.

It'd be eight minutes if it were 0-0

 

[Wolf 82]

On the bright side.. only West Ham around us took 3 points on the week we were away to City.

Wasn’t as bad as it could have been,

 

[sillytuna]

Leeds 0-0 vs Brentford

 

[Big Saft Kid]

Because modern football says you have to, even in the scenario where the risks clearly outweigh the potential benefits.

Yep. A piece of brainless tosh

 

[Mr Sizzle]

Thanks god that is over

 

[KBWWFC]

Forwards come too short for the ball.
Smart defences can push up and squeeze our space.

Need a striker who plays on the shoulder and stretches the opposition.

 

[Contrarian]

Sarabia, welcome to the wolves High and Wide Club!

Can see why we bought him. He's a perfect fit in our plan to corner the market in non-goalscoring forwards.

 

[JOSWolf]

Still cant get over how bad our attacking play is. It is awful. Time after time a cross comes in and time after time hardly anyone or no one there. It is laughably bad and isnt seeming to change. Very worrying. I have seen other teams give Man City defenders a far better game. We turn up and do hardly anything. Cunha is never a no9, Raul looks done in the Premier League and I think Adam Proudlock would score more goals than Adama and Hwang. This attacking none play will get us relegated if we arent careful.

 

[Ned]

3 mins? Are you having a laugh?

Surely you didn’t want more time?

 

[Hawkguy]

Him and Sarabia will get on the same page.

Sarabia is constantly getting open, flinging his arms in the air for a pass
