*** Wolves v Man City *** official match thread

[PeterParker]

Fellas, really, how the fuck can we speak about refs after a shitshow like this?

Fair play, we had our share of bent decisions this year, but tonight was comedy gold from our part. Sunday League football.

It was not shoulder to shoulder. Nowhere near. Traore was behind him and shoved him in the back.

Okay, for those who are saying it was in the back, you are right. And if technically it was a foul or not, again...not arguing. But refer to my previous post on the subject, this may be against the 'rules', but this is reality and this IS what happens.

It's not isolated, not just against City, it's what occurs what you shepard a ball. You need to be stronger or clear the ball. Want a foul? Put your foot on the ball and then fall over, you'll get one.

Rapidly turning into our worst epl title defence by a long way.

Ummm.

Ummm what?

I agree, it is one where you sometimes get the foul and sometimes don't but Atkinson gave it as a foul the next two times he done it. Consistency is all we are after and it doesn't seem any closer now.

Don't be silly, putting your foot on the ball means nothing. You do not even have to be in possession of the ball for a foul to be given,

It shouldn't have come to that. 2-1 up with 7 1/2 minutes on the clock you don't fuck about. Row z and get back in position.

and it wont happen this season . The league is corrupt and we are witnessing it's demise, like italy in the late nineties.

[blues2win]

A special mention for Bernardo who was excellent. Kept the ball very well. Pep said he took off De Bruyne with an eye on Sunday. Only fair to say the scandalous PL scheduling affected this game. Could argue about the red card since Walker was potentially a covering defender.

this is what it boils down to, row z and time to reorganise and catch a breather .

You're welcome.

Whether he was fouled or not , play to the whistle and ffs get shut of the ball to allow the team to reorganise , especially when down to ten men.

[sheblue]

Like it or like or not. We are in transition, there is no denying it. At a minimum we need a 2nd keeper, centre back x2 , a left back, and a top striker.
Not an easy task.
With dave and fern riding off into the sunset, it could be argued we need more.
Interesting times ahead.

Mendy thinks he is cleverer than that.

[PrezIke]

Mendy...uugggh...

Meanwhile Traore who's basically been an NFL player masquerading as a footballer and not sure what's happened but he's been really impressive for a bit now. So have others who've fizzled out, so needs more consistency, but if so could be a new beast level player if he can figure it out.

Sterling's pen misses and free kick, plus KDB coming out tells me Pep is using these games to see what might be his options, who will stay/go, and develop others/test out in new areas against good competition, compared to caring about results in the PL.

That's also why no buys in January, and the more I think he stays at least one more season to beat Klopp and the Liverpool love in. Why would he want to go out with Klopp on top? Pep is too much of a competitor.

Season has been long lost for some time. Even on that, I'd rather Liverpool win the league this way then the way we did last season. At least I already know it's happening 5 months in advance.

[PrezIke]

Nico is so gone after this season, in case you were wondering....

Otto was going last season.

Pep had no intention of building around him this season. As for Stones, what has happened to him ?

Dark tired eyes are not a sign of a healthy footballer.

The league is bent. Watch Wolves get drawn over the coals by the refs and weird decisions on Sunday.

Again , Ottos should not be in this team he hasn't got the heart for it.

[PeterParker]

All is good, fellas, chill.
Mendy posted on twatter. All is well. He might do an instastory later.

[Simister]

Watch the Ederson incident on Youtube, 12 seconds in.

Its clear that Jotta edges his shoulder in to make contact with Ederson.
Isn't that exactly the kind of thing VAR was supposed to be checking for?

Ederson HAD to get the ball when he chose to come charging out. He didn't and regardless of whether he could not avoid the collision, he was going to have to go. Not the first time he has done this recently, we had an extra chumps league game to play because of a similar fuck up in Milan. Don't doubt his ability but his decision making needs to improve. Bravo is wank and the whole team knows it and our natural game then falls apart as we cannot go back and across with that goon in the net
