Wolves v Crystal Palace comms thread.

[SA Wolf]

But how is Silva ever going to improve if everytime he has had a good game hes dropped?

Its the Kilman syndrome all over again. You can see he has talent, he shows said talent, does little wrong and plays well, gets dropped, ????, rinse and repeat.

If we have nothing to lose and we are testing these frankly weak line-ups then at least work with players who have done well.

Who says we have nothing to lose. It's a Premier League game with 3 points at stake and positions and prize money to strive for! It's hardly 'on the beach time'!
As for Silva, he had one good half (second half) last week. Hardly a ringing endorsement in a season that is 27 matches old. Bruno needs to try different things. After all, doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome is the first sign of madness.

 

[Wednesbury Wolf]

Marcal and Hoever as wing backs again....limiting our attacking threat again..

Attacking threat ? it's been a long long time since we had one.

 

[The Wolf In The North]

Big test for Neto, and credit to Lage for having the faith to start him. Can see Hwang getting a goal today, playing more central, and that front three has every chance of clicking. Difficult to get excited about a team with Marcal and Hoever providing width, but the game is there to be won with some pace and creativity up top. Come on Wolves, 2-0 will be a treat.

 

[Jamwolf]

How on earth does Marcal keep starting instead of Ait Nouri ?

 

[Oh Robbie Robie]

How on earth does Marcal keep starting instead of Ait Nouri ?

Because:
i) We don't know if Ait-Nouri has a knock
ii) Marcal is nowhere near as bad as some fans make out.

 

[Ewok vs Wolf]

Palace strengths are out wide so the defensive nous of Marcal probably gets him the nod on that side
Personally would rather ait nouri though

 

[Black Country Wanderer]

Hoever has to be better than last week otherwise Zaha has a field day

3. Marcal can last 90 minutes!

 

[Parkfieldswolf]

Come n Wolves. It worries me that our cover for Semedo is Hoever. I hope he plays well today and grabs his chance.

 

[Deleted member (smith)]

So a week or so ago we had everyone fit and we’re leading Arsenal away from home….all was happiness .

Injury to Semedo ( whose is always the reason for disaster ) and we lose for the first time in living memory after taking the lead and suffer two defeats in a row…..now we can’t putout a balanced side and all is despair .

Obviously I blame Semedo

 

[VancouverWolf]

The PL logo superimposed on a yellow and blue square is permanently on my tv in lower corner.
Surprising.

 

[CelebrityWolf]

we been out of our half yet?

 

[TheConcourse]

Horrible start this.

 

[Aimless Balls]

Zaha felt Hoever there, nice one.

 

[Sedgers]

3. Marcal can last 90 minutes!

4. RAN is over rated by many

 

[Elvis Wolf]

BH Wolves get a grip!!!

 

[BCWolf]

Only one team in this. Really poor opening, looks like a late April game where we have nothing to play for.

 

[Deleted member 8455jwf]

Hoever struggling already, could be a long afternoon for him

 

[Contrarian]

Opponents have realised to not give us any time in our own half.

 

[Deleted member 8455jwf]

Opponents have realised to not give us any time in our own half.

Our defenders are poor at playing the ball under a press

 

[TheConcourse]

This is a ****ing joke. One team look like they’re competing for Europe here.

 

[Elvis Wolf]

Can only hope Palace run out of steam!!!

 

[Parkfieldswolf]

I’m stuck at home cos the lad has Covid so I’m watching a stream and can see already we are so slow and sluggish. No forward threat yet. Hoever already looking woefully out of his depth.

 

[Bugsy911]

Utter garbage they've dominated the game which with the lineup I fully expected....long hopeless balls forward it's dreadful stuff

 

[Erick1011]

Why do we look like we’re the away team?

 

[Living at other WWFC]

Carried on from where we left off on Thursday.
Rather pitiful. Being bullied.

 

[CelebrityWolf]

shockingly poor start this. Getting battered

 

[Deleted member 8455jwf]

Nothing in the midfield again, every 50/50 that goes in there we lose and they never show for the ball

 

[TheTwoPigeons]

This is abysmal so far, hoping for better but we're going to get smashed if Palace can score some of their chances.

 

[BCWolf]

One player in the box.

 

[sc91]

Absolutely dreadful, but to be expectedm

 

[Aimless Balls]

We could use an unnecessarily long VAR check to cool them off.

 

[Deleted member 8455jwf]

Nice bit of possession and passing then Coady just boots it to the keeper

 

[Contrarian]

Nothing in the midfield again, every 50/50 that goes in there we lose and they never show for the ball

Yes. The point of playing out from the back is that if opponents are high pressing, there are gaps behind them. Our problem is that we just can't exploit that space. If we do get out (rare) we invariably just stop and slow down anyway. But mostly, we are just losing out through poor passing or simply being out muscled in this game so far.

 

[sc91]

Side to side to side to side to.... oh lord.

 

[BCWolf]

Better last 5 but it would have been hard not to....

 

[Elvis Wolf]

Wolves coming into it at long last!

 

[Oh Robbie Robie]

Could be worse... could have driven all the way from Brighton to Newcastle to be 2-0 down inside 15 mins.

 

[Oh Robbie Robie]

Twice we've got behind them and no options in the 6 yard box.

 

[Mardenboroughs Shoulder]

Wim on the beach with the Albion!
