Think Kamara is a better CH than Bogarde, and the latter looks more comfortable in midfield so I'd go with that.

My worry is celtic are pretty shit. Cunha is a much better player than anything celtic have.

Its a hard one for me with limited options  we have. I simply cannot believe we have not signed another cb for this game. If konsa gets injured  we are totally effed.

There you go over-dramatizing again....

Id rather  have kamara in dcm protecting the back four and have bogarde  cb with konsa tbh
Totally the reverse. Kamara was brilliant at LCB, and Bogarde is better in front of a back four.
The key question is RB: I'd play Nedeljkovic but I can't see Emery trusting him, which is a big disappointment.

... and, there's no way he'd play Bogarde and Garcia in the same back four at this time; would he?!!

Is garcia definitely starting? If thats the case yeah i would agree  would not be sensible to play him and bogarde right now.

We should have had a replacement for carlos by now. Its massively gambling leaving it so late in the window

Who is their "big lug" upfront, the chap that sounds like a character from Forbrydelsen (The Killing - the original and superior Dansk version, home to Troels Haartmann)?
Strand Larsen?  He's Norwegian and generally shit but pops up with more than the odd goal.

Wolves are shit. They're 18th for a reason, they're shit. We do our job and it's a comfortable 3 points.

West ham were abysmal last week but we failed to put them away. Wulfs always seem to raise their game for their cup final.

That's because we didn't do our job, we went to shit. That's why we didn't win, because as you say, they were shit.

That’s true, but in fairness there’s a pretty clear trend of us not doing our job after midweek European games.

And if we don't then that's on us as Wolves will be shit, same as they are week after week.

We've got one for centre half, we'll be paying Tielemans holding when he's far better further forward, and no senior for right back. If we get a draw it will be a miracle. Garcia has to pay right back, Bogarde holding mid.

Well yeah, but we do keep doing it and we have also stacked the deck against ourselves by having 1 fit senior centre half. Hopefully we’ll through it and put in a strong display.
