[Joshwolf218]

It's 4 at the back for Wolves tonight against a better side the previously faced

Sa between the sticks and Hwang on the bench

Looks good, with the obvious concern up front.

If i see Dendoncker leading the line, I may cry.

Hwang back is good (gulp), Sa too.

I geuinely feel for Coady. I'm not quite sure where we go from here with him. Personally, I'd ship Boly out whilst he still has value and keep Coady, but Conor may (justifiably) want to move in a World Cup year

The coady debate is certainly an interesting one

Beyond striker still think we missing another wide option with a Adama still out

 

[Boss Hogg]

That bench is pretty woeful but we all know that

Yup.

I mean - I know that I'm preaching to the choir here, but outside of the centre backs and Hwang, our bench have a combined PL starts total of <10. Starting XI is very good, and I'll for a lean squad. But we are taking a very very big gamble as things stand.

 

[Chris H]

Trincao hat trick incoming.

 

[Summer_Wolf]

I'm glad Bruno is showing some *******s, sticking with 4 at the back and not shoe-horning Coady in. Really hope he's brave and sticks with it!

 

[old wittonian]

Anyone know the Sporting squad please.

 

[Hoganstolemywife]

Trincao hat trick incoming.

That's not how you spell Dendoncker

 

[Summer_Wolf]

The state of that bench though, deary me. A lot of work to do!

Watch Trincao put in a worldie performance and then the outcry on here that we should have kept him.

 

[Supadavewolf]

Sarkic, Semedo, Raul and Adama will strengthen the bench.

Reckon he’ll be on the blower to Jeff 5 minutes in saying we gave you £150m and mates rates with Jorge, why the **** is our CF 4ft 4?!

Hope he's brought the cheque book.

 

[Ercall Wolves]

Take Dendocker out of that team and replace with Raul or Hwang for now and it could challenge for for top 7
Injuries will be the killer for us at the moment

Agree but I doubt Sellars and Shi see it that way....

 

[Joshwolf218]

An excellent test

 

[Hoganstolemywife]

Wow.
Sporting are quality.
If we can win today, I'll start getting very very excited.

 

[Surrey Wolf]

looking forward to seeing how we do

 

[moseleyite]

Tempted, tempted...

He will go straight back to the middle of the back three we will start with against Leeds.

 

[Joshwolf218]

I would consider sporting much better than Leeds so think this is the way forward and the back 3 against the sky 6 maybe

Well, we'll soon see how well this post ages

 

[CelebrityWolf]

Has there ever been such a huge gulf between a starting XI and the bench? Its like going from Liverpool to Blackpool.

I did wonder if we’d see him soon… his Mrs made her first visit to Grasshoppers last weekend

 

[Monk]

Strange Guo is at the game - something must be in the air

 

[JOSWolf]

That bench is pretty woeful but we all know that

We all know it and the club must do but the lack of game changers on the bench is very poor and not one out and out striker in the squad really is pretty dreadful. Pleased its still four at the back. Less pleased Donck is playing. Would rather Hwang had played and we were a bit more attacking without the striker.

Its really stark. Any more knocks and we will be in trouble.

 

[NottsWolves]

Hopefully he here’s to get some business done!

 

[Hoganstolemywife]

Yup.

With no injuries, we will challenge for Europe. With a team beset by injures, we will be in a position with two digits ending in 'th'

 

[wolfslair]

Yeah, that is a very weak bench if we have an injury after the defence.

Some serious work to be done as if we have a few injuries or suspensions among the starting 11 and we are really in the ****.

Really Good starting 11, a specialist striker (without Raul) short of a top 8 team I think.

 

[Oh When the Wolves]

Is it on YouTube

Hwang hasn't played any preseason mins so I can understand the decision.

money for nunes??

If it were a 7 man bench it would look perfectly reasonable.

Give Man City a 30 man bench and they’d have a few u21’s on it.

 

[JOSWolf]

Fair enough. Would have maybe stuck Cundle in as an attacking midfield player. Just dont like a three of Donck, Moutinho and Neves. It can be too predictable at times.
