Unpopular opinions

[Hoganstolemywife]

What's your unpopular football opinion(s)?

Mine are that

- Ben Foster seems like quite a decent guy...

- Given time, Solbakken would have been a good fit for Wolves

 

[Flump]

Genuinely hating rivals is stupid.

 

[Nivada]

Don't want to spread negativity at all but what I will say is I just watched some of the full match of Wolves 3-2 Man City the Wolves channel uploaded and we were different sauce back then, rarely any miss hit passes, extraordinary vision, clever runs and this extreme buzz around all our play I think that season especially before lockdown was our absolute peak in the Fosun era, they really could of got top 4 we looked absolutely insane at times, right now we're still a good chunk away from what we were back then.

 

[tamwolf]

Nelson Semedo is the first name on the team sheet.

Fabio Silva will come good if given time.

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

With a big enough hammer Frankowski would have fit in the jigsaw

Edit: sorry, I thought I was on the joke thread

 

[Keyser Soze]

I like Southgate

I think Diogo going was a big thing.

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

I like Southgate

He has a weak chin and his **** beard doesn't hide it.

 

[AndyWolves]

We underperformed in the championship

 

[AndyWolves]

Adama will always flatter to deceive

 

[AndyWolves]

The squad was better than Nuno was

 

[Hot Fuss]

Wayne Rooney was crap for a large part of his career.

 

[Hot Fuss]

Kenny Jackett bottled getting into the playoffs in 2015.

 

[Nivada]

If we hadn't of been relegated from the Champ in 12/13 we'd never be where we are today, that season was indirectly one of the most important in Wolverhampton Wanderers history.

 

[Hot Fuss]

Richard Stearman was awful. Berra was miles better but didn’t get the credit Stears did because he wasn’t born in Wolverhampton and didn’t kick the goalpost when we conceded.

 

[Direwolf]

Jack Grealish is a quality footballer as he has proved undoubtedly at Man city and those that say he is vastly overhyped are completely wrong.

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

Wayne Rooney was drunk for a large part of his career.

Now we're talking sense.

I mean we also lost 2 games later to Watford despite them having 10 men for 20 minutes. We drew so many games because we lacked ability to break teams down. We were brilliant against teams who attacked us (although City didn't much in that game as had 10 men for vast majority) but the problem was against defensive teams. We had no ability to break them down with our passing.

But he could do a wonderful impression of being shot by a sniper

 

[clivewolves]

Sky TV has been a good thing for football.

Still scored the most goals of all our Prem seasons, would of been up to 60 scored if not for those horrific VAR decisions, let's not forget the Europa League 4-0 hammerings as well, that period in the Braga match where we just took complete control and fashioned three incredible chances which were converted, if anything our defence was a bigger problem that season.

Football in England was dying in the 1980s, the Premier League is a good thing (distribution should just be changed).

 

[Hot Fuss]

Happy times!

 

[Hot Fuss]

Steve Morgan wasn’t a bad owner.

 

[Nivada]

Steve Morgan wasn’t a bad owner.

Wasn't his ability to keep the club out of debt compared to just about every other Championship side a huge factor as to Fosun buying us?

 

[Hot Fuss]

Mark Burke was absolutely brilliant and should have used better.

You think VAR robbed us of 9 goals, that is pretty preposterous. We scored the joint 8th most goals in the league with Soton and had the 4th best defense. It absolutely wasn't our problem, not scoring enough goals was.

 

[Ewok vs Wolf]

Sky sports news is ****ing awful

 

[Bradmore Wolf]

Referees DON'T hate us
VAR DOESN'T hate us
SKY DON'T hate us
Garth Crooks DOESN'T hate us
Karen Carney DOESN'T hate us
etc, etc, etc

 

[Bankswolf The Third]

Football is ten times better now than it was "back in the day"
Sky TV is the best thing to happen to football
Hating rivals is pointless

Great night v Man City but it has been airbrushed from history that they had 10 men for 80 minutes.

 

[Hot Fuss]

Referees DON'T hate us
VAR DOESN'T hate us
SKY DON'T hate us
Garth Crooks DOESN'T hate us
Karen Carney DOESN'T hate us

I’d give this a thousand likes if I could.

 

[DPE]

Referees DON'T hate us

SKY DON'T hate us

Everyone hates us.

 

[Dans la Lune]

Try as I might, I don't like women's football, it's a totally different game.

 

[Stafford]

Our Championship relegation was Solbakken's fault not Dean Saunders or Mick McCarthy.

Agreed
the rest of you give your heads a wobble

 

[Deleted member 8455jwf]

Everyone hates us.

Most people don't have a particularly strong opinion either way

 

[Flump]

Our Championship relegation was Storbakken's fault not Dean Saunders or Mick McCarthy.

Unpopular opinions, not wrong opinions!

If we had literally anyone other than Saunders in charge that year, we wouldn't have gone down.

 

[Burton Wolf]

Mick was one of the great Wolves managers .

 

[Stafford]

Unpopular opinions, not wrong opinions!

If we had literally anyone other than Saunders in charge that year, we wouldn't have gone down.

Our form was absolutely shocking, dressing room torn apart, Millions wasted before January and a (after) Ebanks Blake injury all before he was hired. Sometimes when look closely back at history it paints a completely different picture.
