Wolves - 1 Aston Villa - 0 Custard Cup Final Post Match Critique

Konsa doesn't have the consistent ability to control the ball let alone skin wingers down the flank. I hope we don't have to rely on him at RB.

Me either. But in a game where we might want to see out time until the final whistle he might be a decent alternative to Cash's more forward thinking style.

Sounds like the game was as much of a damp squib as my date was. Nice enough girl but I didn't feel butterflies. (For those awaiting an update)

Even Bert had a a better day than you then. At least he got pulled off at half time.

Ha ha, brilliant.

Probably just as well, we were in a posh cafe.

I was in a posh cafe today but I didn’t enjoy it. There was this right dodgy couple on the next table behaving inappropriately and lowering the tone. Sounded like they were on a first date. He seemed keen but she kept looking at the exit.

Why was eammon trying to feel butterflies? That will get you thrown out of the butterfly farm

[Gareth]

Wolves are awful .losing to them is unacceptable and our form since Newcastle has been woeful

Woeful? We drew at bogey team Brentford and beat Fulham before these two defeats.

But did we sell all the tickets?

[BC Villain]

Our depth problem is seen in the Buendia situation.

Many have pointed out he’s been poor of late but, until today with Coutinho on the bench, who do we replace him with?

Emery is doing an amazing job, out of this world, but we have a lot of work to do on the squad this summer in terms of quality of course but also numbers.

The lack of depth was clear at Christmas, yet Emery and the board did not do anywhere near enough when we had the chance in January.  A golden, if unexpected chance to reach Europe, and we look to have completly blown it.  Add to that Emery's bone-headed team selection in the two cups as well.  Spurs, Chelsea and Liverpool will not be anywhere near as bad next season.  Another season bottled.

Applauds.

  Thought I saw you behind a hardback of "Killing Thatcher" alright, to which which I nodded in approval.

But if the players were not there to purchase there was little he could do.

Emery seems to have chosen not to add more players in January and was happy for Ings to leave.
You can't really criticise him for going on a 10 game unbeaten run, the likes of which we haven't managed in the PL in God knows how many years?!

[PaulWinch again]

Yeah I think we should have done more in January but given what’s happened since it’s bonkers to criticise Emery.

Imagine getting worked up because we're 'only' on a run of W8 D2 L2.
