MOTD Tonight

[Glass ankles]

Being above them after 7 games is so special for us Manc Wolves fans.
I’m 42 and don’t know of a time when we had the upper hand.

“Mourinho’s right. Their attitude’s ****e”.

A blue pal of mine was at the Etihad today. They were singing Jose’s name for bloody ages.

Drunk and happy.

Brilliant isn't it. I'm up that way too. Will be enjoyable going to work on Monday and ripping the ****

 

[arctic rime]

Southampton sussed us - push up on Neves, Boly and wing-backs and we hoof and they pick up 2nd ball. So the longer we stay under the wire the better. Take a 1-0 at Palace next week and last on MOTD!

3 points off Champions League!

Yes we were well sussed ....


2 v 0 !

 

[JohnB]

Fair point and we were good first 15 mins and very good last 15 mins. However, we struggled for middle hour. Enjoyable nonetheless and with Cav and Traore we had the ability to turn the game into a win.

Spot on assessment!

6 goals conceded in 7 games. No fluke. Unbeaten in five. Best manager in the universe. Watch us fly.

 

[broksonic]

Hope we’re no going to be shown almost last again

 

[Deleted at request of member 4337]

On second to last tonight

Hope we’re no going to be shown almost last again

yes we are

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

Given that there is universal agreement that the game was relatively poor and there were at least two goals everywhere let's not start a persecution complex!

 

[Alex Rae The Substitute]

I left the game thinking we played pretty well, but not great. However, reading on here, the Guardian, BBC Football and Sky Sports you’d have thought we were awful. I clearly wear gold tinted glasses.

Did Fulham disrupt their team too much?

 

[Darvo]

Did Fulham disrupt their team too much?

Indeed. Nunos got it spot on. Evolution ... not revolution. Team spirit is key. Stronger as a pack etc ...

 

[Monketron]

Did Fulham disrupt their team too much?

I think, like the MOTD pundits said, they're just far too open. They got away with it in the Champ as they could overwhelm teams, but that's not going to cut it in the Prem unless you can afford the players Man City and Liverpool can. Wolves might not make as many chances as Fulham but we have such a solid defensive base to build off, that will always keep us in the game even when the forwards aren't firing. A bit like it did today.

 

[thetwistedsock]

Well *******s, tried not to nod off but I did anyway and missed the beginning.

 

[Calufur]

Southampton sussed us - push up on Neves, Boly and wing-backs and we hoof and they pick up 2nd ball. So the longer we stay under the wire the better. Take a 1-0 at Palace next week and last on MOTD!

3 points off Champions League!

Nah we just weren't at the races.

Still won 2-0 though so who gives a ****

 

[Northamptonwolf]

Just watched MOTD highlights and again a fair summary. no issues with being on second last again, about the right order i think.

 

[stever]

Here's Jonny

 

[groundhogwolf]

By our standards I thought we were a bit off today, bit like the draw with Norwich at home hast season, however 3 points in the bag, we were excellent against Leicester away and got nowt, so on to Palace.

 

[we8wba]

Did Fulham disrupt their team too much?

Probably yes, but I think they have enough to stay up, but they need watch behind them in table and not ahead of them.

 

[Deleted member 3545]

Who cares if Wolves are on first or last on MOTD, unless it gets past your bedtime. I very rarely watch it on saturday night usually watch it Sunday morning with a bacon butty and a cuppa !!

 

[wolfgar]

I watched last night but managed to fall asleep moments before Wolves came on and then woke up in time for the last match. FML

 

[Ewok vs Wolf]

The analysis of our game was ok but in general the analysis from Keown and Murphy is just so lazy. Oh look heres Emery's heatmap, Iwobi did uhm erm run about uhm erm energy uhm yes gave the stadium a lift yes uhm yes well done the manager

 

[Tojo the grass]

I liked Murphy’s comment about how Traore used to be like a Ferrari being driven by a learner driver.

 

[Sussex Wolf]

I liked Murphy’s comment about how Traore used to be like a Ferrari being driven by a learner driver.

... but has now passed his test!

Yeah, thought it was a smart comment as well. The highlights he used to illustrate the point did show that he’s clearly getting his head up now and thinking about the smart move.

Yeah he did very well yesterday, the highlights certainly showed him in a good light, which only goes to show the influence he is having.

 

[broksonic]

yes we are

BBC seem to have something against Wolves

 

[ShropshireLad]

BBC seem to have something against Wolves

I don't think so. There have been lots of very positive comments lately.

 

[WonderWolf]

I don't think so. There have been lots of very positive comments lately.

I agree.

For me they have always appeared to be very much pro-Wolves with their articles and views on us over the years.

I reckon we have fans in key positions in that organisation.

 

[Barnet Wolves]

Alan Shearer and the crew on MOTD consistently sing our praises, I love it

 

[5150]

For all the praise, it's the little things that irk.... Keown talking about how Cav couldnt get in the team until now.
A little research would have told him the actual reason.

 

[JadeWolf]

Horrible challenge by Ralls from Cardiff, and Warnock thinks it was only yellow, laughable.

 

[JadeWolf]

Shearer and Wright both saying Coady should be in the England squad.

 

[Plastic Shrapnel]

Ian Wright's comments on Coady were 100% spot on.

But still no one mentions Bennett, an absolute rock for us this season, all dirty work and hustle, but in my opinion our best defender.

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

Horrible challenge by Ralls from Cardiff, and Warnock thinks it was only yellow, laughable.

Terrible, what they said was exactly right, trip him and take a yellow, Warnock mentality is if you're going to get booked May as well hurt him. Game's moved on Colin.

Lovely long interview with Nuno as the Wolves love in continues.

 

[WolvTown]

interesting they said Palarce had changed there formation for us? Could anyone imagine Nuno changing our formation for another team....... AT HOME!!!

 

[Eddie's Eagle]

Shearer and Wright both saying Coady should be in the England squad.

And they're both 100% right.

 

[ShropshireLad]

interesting they said Palarce had changed there formation for us? Could anyone imagine Nuno changing our formation for another team....... AT HOME!!!

I honestly think that if a team plays 4-4-2 against us then they play into our hands.

 

[Deleted member 3751]

Wright almost complimentary! He's right about Coady and Mount though.

5th best ever total after eight games in the PL for a newly promoted club, and highest for ten years. We're decent

 

[S G Wolves]

interesting they said Palarce had changed there formation for us? Could anyone imagine Nuno changing our formation for another team....... AT HOME!!!

Or away!

 

[Dan G WWFC]

Kane
Sterling
Lingard Henderson Dele
Chilwell Maguire Coady Stones Walker
Pickford

Doesn't look out of place and fits in perfectly
