Up and at them

[YamYamWolf]

Today we are playing our toughest game this season. Against a team that will win 90 percent of their games this year. This isn't a forgone conclusion though!

Let's make molineux a fortress. Lets get behind the lads from the first whistle till the last. If we concede, keep singing your heart out. Lets make the molineux rock.

This won't define our season but I just have a feeling we may be pleasantly surprised today. Enjoy the day all.

Win, lose or draw, FWAW.

I agree with Dukinfield.

I tried to post one of those giff thingies. Nuno going mental at Bristol. It didn’t work!!!

Nonetheless, the spirit and best intention was there.

Apprehensive.Tense.Excited .
This is what it is all about .

 

[Phitsanulok (Poole) Wolf]

The only way.
Hope the ball is o.k. for Pep poor dear.​

 

[JadeWolf]

COME ON ME BABBIES!!!

 

[arctic rime]

[Tojo the grass]

Going to be a great atmosphere hopefully the boys will do us proud.

If we have the same start as we did against Leicester we'll make chances again. One of them goes in this time and it'll be interesting.
But 90 minutes is a long time against City....

I think we expect that there will be long, long periods in this match where we don't have the ball, and are very deep in our own box defending. City do that to pretty much everyone, on the opening day of the League they beat Arsenal away and absolutely cruised it, never got out of first gear tbf. We've gotta make the most of the chances we do get, and hope that the luck that we never had at Leicester, we get today. We can do it!

Up to 13/1 on 365 now! Worth a tenner that.

 

[Wolf86]

Going into the game expecting nothing out of it so anything else is a bonus

 

[Wolves Heathen]

Looking forward to it, nervous yes, but this is what we wanted Premiership football for, for days like this, and to see teams like this. Just a few words to the fans and players, go out there enjoy it, and lets get behind our guys from start to finish..

 

[TFWanderers]

Dreading work on Tuesday if we get hammered.

 

[maws]

I’m buzzing for this now

 

[Wagstaffe Was Magic]

They are going to hurt us badly!! Lets hope it doesn’t affect confidence too much and that we can get on the winning trail soon!!

One win and we will be on our way! The beauty of football is that it could happen even today!!

COYW!!!!!

 

[Wswolf]

Keeping city to 2 goals today should be the target. Doing that will feel like a win especially if he doesnt provide the back 3 with a defensive midfielder to give them some cover

This is how I feel. One minute I'm fearing a thumping and then I revert to type and figure we have a new found quality which we've not had for generations, of which we can now compete in this league.

So I guess I'm leaning towards a favourable result for us. Even a point is huge, and their fans on their forum have been very kind towards us.

 

[WonderWolf]

Yes indeed. Give them all we have....hope the clappers are out for this one, we can’t be risking them great periods of relative silence.

What we don’t want is to sit there in some stupefied state with mouths agape.

What we do want is to stun them instead…..having come to play in our lair unnerved they must be.

#WeAreWolves!

Never got out of first gear but Arsenal missed a boat load of sitters. It's a different game if you are chasing it - shape goes.

It can be done. Sharp minds are required, ah electric atmosphere, do not negativity to creep in, this is arguably the best team that English football has ever seen.

Make it a fortress, the players give 100% and maybe, just maybe, we upset the applecart.

We can do it!

We really can!!!

No point sitting back trying to ride the shots, you'd need a massive Ali rope-a dope to pull that off and would likely end up being banjo'd like 'uddersfield last week, lets just go toe to toe and ****ing have at em

Swing away boys

Big George was on his own in there, City have numerous big hitters.
Like you say, go toe to toe and hopefully put a few of their' big hitters' off their stride.

 

[Wolves Heathen]

City are a team that plays football, there only weakness if they have one, is defensively they are not great, so the best form of defence is to attack them, in other words just play our normal game...

 

[dmcmaho3]

Up to 13/1 on 365 now! Worth a tenner that.

****. I thought i'd covered all bases with my bet last night. Got 10/1 for the win and 11/2 for the draw so a fiver@10s gives £55 and £2 @ 11/2 gives £13 so either way I'm up on the deal. But 13/1 is even better. Of course, the plan falls to pieces if we lose but in that case, I'm already miserable anyway.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Let's have the spirit of 1974.

 

[iantendo]

Even if we lose we can make a statement that we are up there with the best teams in the league by giving them a game. Make other teams see coming to Molineux as a tricky fixture and not a place where they should be picking up 3 points. Going to be a cracking game either way!

 

[5150]

We are up against the best PL team in years.

Excited and apprehensive in equal measures !!

All I ask... just give them a game. !

 

[Contrarian]

If, on MOTD, they say "Wolves were very well organised and gave City problems", then I'll be happy. Maybe Nuno will have shown the team highlights of the 1974 final and told them "you have to better this to *really* be the best Wolves team in the past 50 years".

Statues outside the ground for the entire team if we get a result!

Dropped back to 11/1 now mate, must be running scared from my £12 bet
