Wolves banter 10

30 Nov 2025 13:58:16
The biggest problem so far is that Andre and J Gomes offer no foward movement in the centre of midfield we don't have a Ball carrier to take it to the opposition! They are too similar that area needs changing at HT, maybe Gomes goes off with concussion, because how he couldn't see Jackson in acre's of space is quite worrying

30 Nov 2025 14:40:52
At least Edward’s got 70 mins out the team before we conceded

30 Nov 2025 15:19:28
Why could VAR not check the foul in the build up to the goal? It was a clear foul and ex refs saying goal should not have stood.

01 Dec 2025 16:36:25
Apparently to many stages of play had happened

30 Nov 2025 13:35:14
Banksy51 spot on with the team bar Krejci out as injured replaced by Arias looks decent. If defence stays strong got the forwards to hurt Villa fingers crossed.

30 Nov 2025 13:03:01
Guess we will soon find out if this back 3 works. Earlier in the season they were terrible, can we score a goal, please. 🤞

30 Nov 2025 15:09:03
We really could do with Doyle in that midfield today, he would have found those forward passes we needed

30 Nov 2025 16:21:39
Battled well, but there is no pace or quality despite forcing Martinez to pull off some good saves.

30 Nov 2025 09:49:23
Guess we will see today what Rob really thinks of the players with his team selection. Really hope he can see that Munetsi and Hwang in particular should not be starting, that being kind to Hwang.
Remember Bellegarde having a good game v Villa before, think this version of Bellegarde left a while ago.


As always very interested to see the team selection, will Lopez, Mane be involved, about time if they are 🤞👍

Got a real funny feeling Banksy agbadu to nod in winner, duno what the score tho. COYW

30 Nov 2025 12:46:12
Seen the team? My confidence has suddenly waned. But who knows? Let's hope we get it together and Aston villa have an off day. But, oh dear!.

29 Nov 2025 22:47:55
Edward's has talked about the players passion. Let's hope they find the skill.

30 Nov 2025 09:46:10
Oops, just spilt me coffee! LinsayB.
Skill and passion, is that too much to ask?
Seriously I agree mate, it's something we've been missing RE as said he's conveying what this game means to fans and I hope our lot finally find some connection and pride in the club.

Score and team for Sun 2-1 to the Wolves team
Johnstone
Jackson
Bueno
Agbaduo
Toti
Wolfe
Gomes
Andre
Krejci
Larsen
Tolu

I would love to play lopez or mane but that's takeing out a defender or midfielder and with Villas form at the moment Wolves could get walloped.

28 Nov 2025 17:28:27
I'd go: Johnstone, Jackson, Agbadou, Krejci, Wolfe, Arias, Andre, Gomes, Lopez, Arokodare, Mane

JSL hasn't looked good so hopefully Tolu can provide the knockdowns for Mane and Mane can run at the defence and stretch them. Give Arias a freer role.

29 Nov 2025 11:23:33
I've been thinking and thinking about the game Dmac and I keep getting the could get walloped bit.
Can't see either tulu or larsen doing anything if we don't get balls to them in an area they can either attack or have got support to nod down/on .
I've said before that lopez could be our surprise and he'd definitely start, although he'd need to be at his best.
It'd be interesting to see Mane start but maybe a later introduction when more experienced players legs are tiring would allow him to use his speed from the middle.
Arias proves to be a conundrum, is he played in a too restricted role? Does he need to roam across the pitch?
But if we're looking for crosses to tulu, jsl or both, then I'd even maybe think of playing both Hugo and Wolfe on the left, jackson on the right.


Then gomez and Andre.
The defence is really hobsons choice.
So,
Johnstone
Jackson
kriecji
santi
agbadu
Wolfe/hugo
Lopez /arias/munetsi
Andre
gomez
Bellegarde/hugo/mane
Jsl/tulu
I know I've just named the squad without Hwang toti and Sa but I ve put preferences first.
No idea what RE will decide, but with it being the vile, at their place and our unique position I hope we can baffle em with some new style play and effort.
Can't see a win tho, will hope for an encouraging draw and won't be too upset if it all goes **** up and the walloping happens.
Things can only get better, yea!, well we'll see.
No matter what COYW COYW COYW.

29 Nov 2025 11:55:30
Hi all

Here’s a set up 😀it could happen!,

Johnston
Jackson. Abadagou. Wolfe
Gomes. Andrea
Arias. Lopez. Bueno
Jsl. Tolu

29 Nov 2025 14:38:16
That's a wallop then capo! Seriously an all out attack would be a surprise, even if we lost 10-6 or something, it be worth the money over the dross we've been watching.

29 Nov 2025 16:35:03
Abbeywolf I was hoping when Edwards got the job things would change and whang Toti and Belgarde would not get a game . But last week proved me wrong first sub Whang he does nowt Lopez can't get on the pitch 23mill why somethings not right.

Where is Mane and now there saying Tolu is not fit enough but not just him but the whole squad what's going on.

30 Nov 2025 05:52:10
Yes it's interesting how we acquire these new players, 'one for the future", and never utilise them DMac, like you I thought, given his record that RE might throw the young uns in, but I'll excuse the selection for last week due to Edwards only just stepping in and the return from international duties etc.
But yra why acquire Lopez, Lima and Rigardo to a large extent if they're not going to be risked?
What we've had under VP havnt performed or shown the interest whilst these younger lads are sitting out. Ok they're not experienced, young heads maybe not physically matched, but the other lot havnt wrapped themselves in glory. So give em the chance.
Mane yes he's young and maybe not starting material yet but he looks like he could be a proverbial 'super sub" to begin with.
Lopez in fairness hasn't really got going from a start. That could be due to a slower more lethargic service from others around him tho, and I really think quicker aytackminded stylewould suit him.


Another lad is Alfie Pond, who I think is no more of a risk than toti or santi can be. He played his only start v Brighton last season and I thought he looked very adaptable with the right guidance and leadership, and that an area that we really lack in. Neither toti agbadu or santi can lead a line and its only kreicji who now seems to try and keep one.
The selection of so many different tongues on the pitch can't help.
Hwang is quite frankly only explained by the talk of shirt sales and appearance agreement in his contract, because I've yet to see or hear anyone extolling his football .
Let's see who we get today Dmac, I hope RE is willing to experiment and why shouldn't he? We really can't go any lower, I don't even care about saving face now I want some belief for next year.
As I said before I'd rather lose 10-6 than 4-0.

28 Nov 2025 08:25:50
Apparently we are not playing the likes of Lopez and Mane due to the difficult situation we are in. Might agree a little with Mane, however, if they are good enough they should play. Why did we buy Lopez if not to play him, before the season started surely everyone knew we were going to be around relegation.

Unfortunately if this is the case expect the same side moving forward and same depressing style of play.

Tickets for Man Utd game on general sale at category ‘A’ prices, the club really has lost touch with reality. Don’t we pay to watch our own team? Steve Bull and Billy Wright seats cost double what away fans pay, something is not quite right.

27 Nov 2025 18:09:47
Every team we have played this season has looked much fitter than us in every aspect which is very worrying. JSL and Arias in particular.
Something needs to change radically.

28 Nov 2025 08:10:23
Couldn't agree more a lot of watching and walking going on with very little working and grafting IMO.

28 Nov 2025 11:34:23
It’s all sorted guys!
RE has arranged for each player to have strict meal plans so WW have been drafted in to sort it. (Weight Watchers).
Three shredded wheat before every game or ready brek if it’s cold.
Should then be an even match with Villa after we’ve gone through 15 bad ref decisions, 5 VAR checks (all against us), oh and yes, had a man sent off for something the opposition did.

Just don’t understand why we can’t win a game! 🤷🏼‍♂️
