Wolves vs Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

Rubbish.

Shocking performance , most of us called it too before the game .
That's the most worrying aspect.

And the whole post-Champions League not winning a game, is an insult to the fans. It smacks of a lack of any desire from the players to knuckle down to the bread-and-butter.

Can't keep hoping that upping the tempo and playing well for 10-15 mins a game is going to be enough for 3 points.

Monchi came with a big reputation but has done nothing as far as i can see, desperate for a central defender. We really miss Pau.

Shit before and shit after CL games.
Makes you wonder why we want to be in there agin next year…..or maybe not based on that showing.

[Percy McCarthy]

Bad as we were, we probably would have won had our perfectly legal goal been allowed.

We need to take the cup very seriously now.

Absolute utter shit today. We don’t have a settled defence. It’s all over the place. Pau missing, as much as it might hurt us a little at the back we need him bringing the ball out to help the attack. And as much as we might love some of our attacking players you can see why Emery wants the likes of Rashford or Felix. We lack that bit of consistent quality that breaks teams down or lifts the side when we are not at our best. Today was a fucking shocker. The 4 subs at HT said a lot. But everyone including the manager got this very wrong.

I called it

In pre match

I have a feeling its going to be a flat performance as we put so much in Wednesday  night

No , we really miss Mings .

Not sure if Bailey and Onana have the bravery for physical battles. Embarassing having to see the team captain and manager drag both of them off the ground in injury time. I miss Douglas Louise.

That was bad. I'm not sure either player has much of a future at Villa Park past the summer.

Correct. But like Brexit, VAR will sort it.

There’s no plan b when teams pack in front of us.  Just dismal.

It's fine margins. A clever free-kick routine and an intricate through ball could easily have equalised it for us and it wouldn't have been underserved. 1-1 means Wolves can't just sit deep and play on the counter. The concession of early goals is just crippling. It's really frustrating cos we're quite close to being a really good team yet at the same time far away.

Is that the first time Watkins has ever been injured?
