Wolves v Brighton comms thread.

[dewolfman]

Harsh on Jonny isn’t it? Deserves to keep his place ahead of semedo, bit of portuguese favouritism?

 

[sillytuna]

Not against 532 & obviously pleased to see Neves back. But Fabio and Hwanck up top. Has a PL team ever started two worse strikers?

Fabio's been playing well in a team that don't create any chances. Hwang should be much better in a front two so let's give him a fair crack of the whip there. Because if he's rubbish there as well... ew.

 

[The Wolf In The North]

Other than the fact Silva hasn’t scored all season and Hwang has scored 2 since October.Add in there is zero width so would possibly go wrong ?

Anything has to be better than Hawng wide left, sat on his bum and trying to catch butterflies.

It could all go very right instead!

 

[WickedWolfie]

Think I may retract the 5-5 prediction I made.

Any excuse...... lol

 

[SA Wolf]

Funny, I was going to suggest "Fabio and Hwang as 2 up front" as a joke, but thought it too facetious even by my pitifully low standards. Donk in the middle, Saiss in the back 3. Looks like he is deliberately winding up the "Bruno is not the man" brigade. All that's lacking is Marcal in for RaN. Either Bruno has no idea of his critics here, or he doesn't care! Possibly Raul not 100%? Would be daft to go a full season without once trying Hwang and Raul as a 2 up front.

Weren't Jimi and Hwang a front two when Hwang got his two against Everton? Jimi got at least one assist and possibly two. Or do you mean Hwang and Silva?

 

[UEAwolf]

Silva's been our most impressive attacking player of late (not saying a lot I know)

 

[clivewolves]

Yes. What a team.

We can win this!!

 

[Joop]

I know he was out injured for a while but I thought Neto might be a bit more up to speed by now and pushing for a starting place. Seems like he just gets 10-15 at the end of every game

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

If hwang and donck are out wide then it will be a joke

I think he was pulling our collective plonkers.

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

I know he was out injured for a while but I thought Neto might be a bit more up to speed by now and pushing for a starting place. Seems like he just gets 10-15 at the end of every game

I think Pedro is struggling a bit ATM. Trying hard, but not much coming off.

 

[Ewok vs Wolf]

At least Hwang will be down the middle, not his biggest fan by any means but he is better in the middle than out wide.

 

[VancouverWolf]

I think Bruno makes every player fight for his place after injury ……even Neto.

 

[The Wolf In The North]

Brighton have beaten Arsenal and Spurs and drawn against Liverpool, Chelsea, West Ham and Leicester away this season. Only lost 4 of 17 away games. They travel well.

Still think we'll win, but a tough nut to crack.

 

[clivewolves]

I watched the individual highlights for Silva, Hwang and Jimenez for the Burnley match, and while none of them were exceptional Hwang was the best of the bunch. Hwang and Silva were trying to link up with each other. I'm not surprised he is starting ahead of Jimenez.

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

Oh no
No no


Ruben has a man bun.

 

[Contrarian]

Weren't Jimi and Hwang a front two when Hwang got his two against Everton? Jimi got at least one assist and possibly two. Or do you mean Hwang and Silva?

Against Newcastle? That's when Hwang got his two. It was a front 3, Hwang/Raul/Trincao. Against Everton, Raul scored in the 2-1, but that was also Hwang/Raul/Trincao as a front 3. Just checked and we *have* had a front 2 of Hwang and Raul - in the recent 1-0 win at Everton (Coady scored).

Apparently we played a front 2 of Podence and Raul against Leicester and Spurs. Can't say Bruno hasn't tried plenty of combinations up front! Suprised how many, when going through it...pretty much all with the same problems, though.

[MontyR]

This is going to come back to haunt me, but I see Hwang doing well today.

 

[AndyY]

Zero width

The width comes from the wing backs, Jonzy, come on.

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

This is going to come back to haunt me, but I see Hwang doing well today.

I think we'd all like that

 

[Aimless Balls]

Oh no it’s Oatley again.

 

[MontyR]

I think we'd all like that

I can’t watch this match today, and generally the matches I can’t watch we end up doing well in!

 

[Mugwump]

Why is Garry Birtles commentating

 

[VancouverWolf]

Settle down lads…..easy passes

 

[Wall heath Wanderer]

Hwang with a **** pass to nobody but a defender, commentator praises it as a good pass....

 

[Contrarian]

The commentator has a point. He said it was an intelligent pass to where you would expect a player to be following up in support. Interesting what you see when your judgement isn't clouded with bile and hatred directed to one player.

 

[Wall heath Wanderer]

The commentator has a point. He said it was an intelligent pass to where you would expect a player to be following up in support.

May well expect someone to be there, but with none of our players anywhere near it was a lack of awareness in my book and a waste of possession.

 

[Hoganstolemywife]

Not particularly gripping so far

 

[Aimless Balls]

Neves down. Bruno with words for Hwang.

Neves up and walking well, but off the pitch.

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

Oh no it’s Oatley again.

Why is Garry Birtles commentating

Annoying

 

[Contrarian]

Check the beach. Might find our midfield there.

 

[Deleted member 8455jwf]

Bad tackle from Ruben that, lucky to not be booked.

 

[Aimless Balls]

Annoying

I synced up Mikey and Thommo.

 

[Contrarian]

Not particularly gripping so far

Would guess that Brighton fans are enjoying it.

 

[Hoganstolemywife]

Would guess that Brighton fans are enjoying it.

Yeah they're the better team so far but it's a very dull encounter!

 

[Ches78]

Seems to be going as expected so far - not really done anything and no efforts on goal - Brighton looking more incisive going forward...

 

[Deleted member 8455jwf]

Slightly better ball and Donk is in. Good support run

 

[Mugwump]

This is already a worrying performance.

 

[The Wolf In The North]

Two teams who fight tooth and blood to actively pass the ball backwards even when a far easier forward pass is on. It's quite the spectacle, really.

 

[VancouverWolf]

Why are WE always on the back foot?
