Wolves vs Aston Villa match thread

[brontebilly]

Mike Dean may have had 20 years in the prem, but it’s 20 years of being fucking shit.

It's the arrogance that goes with it that really irks...

McGinn having a shocker again, should really be hooked at half time. Ramsey struggling with the pace and physicality of it too. We keep getting dispossessed in midfield and it will cost us.

Watkins and Grealish look dangerous and have the measure of Coady and Semedo. Matt Targett has been surprisingly good. Back five generally have been good bar Cash getting done again positionally for a yellow. Guilbert might have to come in there in second half of he comes under pressure.

Good game this.

Scrappy and frustrating. We were a lot more fluid at West Ham but Wolves are more physical. Jack and Mings both far too casual when in possession near our own box and under pressure. Don't know if being away with England emboldens them but it's playing with fire.

Traore is frustrating, but there is clearly some technical talent there. Anyone spot after his one decent run into the box and winning a corner, Watkins looked pleadingly at him saying "Mate?" as in, 'Why didn't you cross it to me?"  Feel bad for Ollie, he's had to forage deep and he's got the ability to retain possession and get us further up the field but he's had very little service so far.

Good start from us. They coming more into it after a while. Good game of football. We playing well as we did first half at West Ham. Some trouble we have midfield defensively with McGinn and Ramsey (like the look of the player though and he hasent done much wrong) Mike Dean never liked him , something with his apperance and as someone here said might be that he s looking for being star of the show. Also he usually after Villa players (in my unbiased view ..) also in this game, danger of one of our being sent off. Can go either way, not having a good feeling and probl taking a draw right now.

It’s nice to hear they have changed the hand ball rule, just in time to fuck us over.........again.

Agree with all of this. I think McGinn will get sent off if he isn't taken off, Mike Dean really seems to be winding him up with his inconsistent, pedantic bullshit. Which is understandable really, Mike Dean is an absolute twat.

It’s an even contest which is progress again for us. A point is a very good result. My concern is our discipline given who is ref. We don’t want to go down to 10 because the gaps will be huge for them to attack into. And we need to be more inventive in the final third. Ollie is starved of good service.

[jwarry]

I thought we were doing alright until they got physical and we suffered three quick bookings, then we let them come on to us. We need to get at them again as they are clearly worried about our forward players having matched us up 442

[brontebilly]

Wish we could do something with the corners we get.

Jack's deliveries haven't been great

[itmustbe_it is!]

Dean is just dying to send one of us off. Any excuse he'll have that red out.

I think Dean has been fucking awful, wildly inconsistent in how he's applying the laws between the 2 teams. Thought the yellow for Luiz was harsh, if the one for Cash stands then Coady and Semedo should be booked as well as they've both done the same thing. He's given their teenager loads of extra protection with some soft free kicks and given ours none as Moutinho has been niggling at him all game.

Aside from that I think it's been pretty even, we are maybe taking a touch too many at times.

[Mister E]

Semedo fouls JG again!! - no card.

[Risso]

Targett has played really well today.

[paul_e]

Semedo fouls JG again!! - no card.

Fucking joke, that has to be a yellow cxard given the ones he's given so far, pathetic ref.

[Edvard Remberg]

McGinn just jogged back when Wolves broke

[Risso]

Close!
