Will Wolves be up for it Friday?

[Penarth Blues]

I think we should rest our decent players for the other games. We don't want to lose players to their cloggers. Most Red cards, most fouls resulting in yellow cards, their a dirty bunch!

I know it's tongue in cheek (slightly) but I think we're going to need to win all our home games so would prefer we had a good go at them on Friday without putting the last 10% of effort in. The danger of course is to avoid running on empty for the Villa game which is more important IMO. I think Villa are suffering as a result of the effort they expended in beating Wolves and we don't want to find ourselves in the same situation.

I think it's more that after they beat Wolves and were on such a great run, they thought they were invincible and just needed to turn up to beat QPR.

If we beat Wolves then even if we lose to Villa we will still be in a strong position. I hope you dont mean the bit which says only play at 90% to save ourselves for the Villa game - if you do then it is a ludicrous thing to say at this stage of the season.

I meant what I posted. I want us to have a real go but don't put everything into this one game as we don't want to lose important players for far more winnable matches. This could take the form of playing Madine, Bryson, Peltier and other players who've not had a great deal of minutes recently from the off and asking them to put everything in.

Wolves play with really advanced quick wing backs so we need to reduce their space and keep up with them for pace. It'll be interesting to see how NW sets us up for this match...

But we want/need to win the Wolves game and playing at 90% will guarantee we lose, so whats the point of that ?. We are more likely to lose at Villa if we lose on Friday. We need to get promoted at the earliest opportunity and not give Fulham any hope..
