Re: WOLVERHAMPTON W v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
We’re getting embarrassed

Re: WOLVERHAMPTON W v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
I doubt Warnock will say anything to Bamba at half-time.

Re: WOLVERHAMPTON W v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
wolves counter attacks have been deadly all season so here we are giving them all the space in the world. nice one neil, great set up

Re: WOLVERHAMPTON W v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
As for Saints going 1 up at Old Trafford it is possible if you approach the game like you have half a chance.
Our 'happy to be there' attitude and the noises we make prior to them like the game is already lost will achieve nothing and it has proved that way time and again.
The mini league scenario works only if you pick up similar points to those around us against the top clubs. We don't.

We never learn.
Spot on mate
The two goals just about sum up our defending this season

Re: WOLVERHAMPTON W v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
And to think we started quite well

Yes. Looking positive going forward.
But the defence is all over the place.

The Championship is fun but it loses its appeal when the thing you're aiming for is going to be a 'let's see how it goes' while spending very little.
If we go down this time it will be the nagging feeling of having gone down without giving it a proper go. It still bothers me from last time and this will feel as bad, if not worse.

Re: WOLVERHAMPTON W v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
almost 3... good block in the end...
this is not good enough, we are not good enough

Re: WOLVERHAMPTON W v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Should be 3, shocking defending from a corner and Etheridge to the rescue

Re: WOLVERHAMPTON W v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
On the bright side, Niasse and Zohore with Reid in behind looks somewhat promising

I'd be very encouraged if it wasn't Keystone Cops stuff at the other end with some of our players thinking they're Beckenbauer when in the $hit.

Re: WOLVERHAMPTON W v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

Camarasa showing some nice touches too

Re: WOLVERHAMPTON W v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
The passing for their first goal was lovely but watch how the defenders are all attracted to the ball rather than staying with the runners throughout the move.
4 City players go towards the penultimate Wolves player to touch the ball, leaving the player who scored, completely unmarked in miles of space in our own box 🙈

Schoolboy defending

Re: WOLVERHAMPTON W v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
You can tell the players are done mentally. Their heads just aren't in it, and it won't get any better as the games go on. We'll just trudge into relegation.
May as well start planning for next season in the Championship. :hehe:

We're caught between man to man marking and being attracted to the ball.
All it equals are the better attacking sides just passing quickly through us with ease.
Many of our defenders seem to think too slowly for this league. They lack physical speed as well as speed of thought.
I am as thankful to Warnock for promotion as anybody but the management and their inability to remedy our, at times, comical defending will be our ultimate downfall this season. We're not tearing the world apart at the other end but our defence has been woeful at times and is getting to about its worst at the business end of the season.

Absolutely
9 games left with 4 of those against the top 6 sides. We’re done.

Re: WOLVERHAMPTON W v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
We are going down with a whimper

Re: WOLVERHAMPTON W v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
It was looking so positive after Southampton
We've absolutely fcuked it

Totally. We’re going down because of our inability to defend. The goal difference sums it up. The entire back four to be fair are reasonable Championship players, but that’s where it ends sadly
