Wolves vs Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[adrenachrome]

Today was a great chance to get up with 40/41 pointers after earlier results but as usual we have been hopeless post UCL game. We have proved those pundits right who said we won’t be able to cope with CL and PL duty. Pity but there we are.

That's it in a nutshell.

Same thing happened to Newcastle when they qualified for the CL with PSR restrictions on transfers.

If there’s any positives to take Bogarde played very well.

Also thought Ned did really well when he came on.

[Nunkin1965]

Wow, how shit was that.
Sold far too many players, threadbare at the moment.
I’m sorry but I really don’t think Emery is all that!!

Wow that last bit is up there with the biggest load of bollocks ever said on this site.

You might be right with that one!!

So, Zoroastrianism, that's an interesting one. You can make the case that Zoroastrian influence brought into Israel by the Persians was the reason why Judaism became a monotheistic religion and that, by extension, Judaism, Christianity and Islam would never have developed as they did, if at all, without it. It's largely unknown in the west, though. We don't even know if Zoroaster actually existed.

Would anyone like to discuss Zoroastrianism with me?

Anyone?

Voltaire if you can summon the dead

Looking at the replay of the goals on Sky, Konsa fails to cover or support.  Really over-rated player, needs competition as he's badly out of sorts for me.  Too many players standing and watching the game.

I liked a couple of the early Zorro films as a kid.

We played one of the poorest teams in the league and they won pretty comfortably. Unacceptable.

Disagree, we had them penned-in for most of the second half, 90% possession at one point. Only the good sides are able to recycle the ball for long periods of time. And it was a local derby where form/quality often goes out the window.

They were more up for it physically and emotionally and they'd had four extra days to prepare for it. We weren't great but I think we deserved a draw.

Post Champions league yadda yadda.

There were no excuses for that dog's breakfast of a performance.

Robbed of a goal - which would have changed things an absolutely shocking decision.

Again only played well for 15 mins.  The problem is we’re getting weaker each window - I don’t know if it’s because of FFP - but it’s shocking and is costing us. 

Baileys loss of form is a big issue - we’ve basically lost all his goals and assists, and dougies, and diabys.  And only have 1 fit centre back.  Combined with all the chopping and changing it really is a fucking mess.  FFP is at the heart of it but we’ve made way too many poor decisions on and off the pitch.

Basically we had to be near faultless in everything to match last year and we just haven’t.  I think “losing” Bailey and dougie and not replacing them correctly has killed us and there’s a very real risk of this becoming a sliding doors moment

We played 3 different players at RB tonight! Cashy, come back, all is forgiven.

[jwarry]

That disallowed goal did for us.  Just pathetic refereeing

you can add Diaby.

the fact that it was flagged at the off is even weirder.

Although true that would have papered thw cracks. We were bloody awful. Losing 2-0 to wolves is simply embarrassing

[manic-road]

That must be our worst performance of the season, from keeper to the forwards we were so poor. We got bullied by Wolves aggression and buckled badly.
