***Champions v Wolves Official Match Thread***

[Mase]

Wolves deserves this. This is a game where we were second best, not at Norwich.

Taking the piss? This is exactly why I gave my season ticket up. Shit teams coming to COMS and deciding to play 5 at the back when they don't usually. It's fuckin shit to watch.

Wolves were today better at every level. They didn't park the bus
They should had been 3 up at half time.

Well deserved.

Arrogance, poor team selection and again arrogance cost us today.

Wolves were superb. Fully deserved their victory.

Superb in what way? I'm guessing when you're sat on your couch watching it time wasting from ten mins in won't bother you

[nottsblue]

Wow.

Did not see that coming in a month of Sunday’s

The PL has gone for my money. Not that there isn’t time to claw back 8 points, I just don’t think we have the desire or consistency to do so

If we had a fully fit squad, I can see us going on another long winning run. But without Laporte, Sane and KDB, it's always going to be an uphill struggle.

But we haven’t a fully fit squad. Unless the dippers get injuries to key players they will win it. We won’t give it up easily I’m sure of that but with things as they stand I cannot see us clawing 8 back. And quite honestly, I fear what Mane and Salah would do to our current defence

[blues2win]

That was piss poor. Only fair to see say we badly missed two centre backs and our best midfielder..

[london blue 2]

It’s a match thread so take it with a pinch of salt but Pep can get fucked for dropping Sergio again when he’s in his best form. And gundo over Phil all game! You reap what you sow.

Arrogant fucker.

Wolves were not superb, and they DID park the bus. More noticeable in the second half.

You are being harsh. From minute one they were here for the taking.

They got organised really well, got advantage of every fuck up we did. I would go ahead and say they should had got a penner in the first half also.

They faced a team that was arrogant, had the wrong team selection and came in the game worst than they did versus Zagreb.

[Mase]

That doesn't make them "superb" tho mate. I realise you didn't say it.

[BrianF]

Trouble is we have become predictable and our players today looked lackluster. Pep for all his praise of the youngsters will not take a "gamble" with them. He rather stick with Otto than risk Garcia and as for Foden what has the lad have to do to get a start??

[Outcast]

A pundit said we will drop points today but still believes we'll win the title. For some strange reason I had the same feeling, dont ask me why and based on today's results there is no solid justification. We have 3 big players missing, the type to make a difference in stale, tight matches, the type to drag us out of the gutter. FFS, come to think of it Laporte, Stones, Mendy, KDB and Sane, that's the backbone of our team missing, just let that sink in before you start flapping. It's like dippers having Van dick, Mane and Salah not playing, how do you think they'll fare, they've been dragging them through tight matches where it could have swung either way along with helping hand from above of course.. like I said yesterday we were to focused on dippers games we forgot what we had to do ourselves, maybe slight arrogance to dismiss lesser teams on our part

[PrezIke]

Seems to me what I've seen was the midfield pairing is not the same without KDB now. They seem rather passive.

Quite a few players out of form as well.

And for me sitting Kun wasn't bad as Jesus also in form and clamouring for game time. Jesus didn't start today anyway, but when he came on we did almost score.

[PrezIke]

Interesting point:

Nail on head.

And starting Gundo and D.Silva. What the fuck was that?? There was f-all creativity in midfield.
Pep needs a bloody head re-boot. We could have sailed this even with the injuries.
Otamendi needs to get shipped out - today.

[nottsblue]

Not sure I like Rodri and Gundogan in the same midfield with Silva.

I can confirm I now know I don’t those three starting in midfield. They simply can’t unlock a well drilled and organised defence

Rodri needs to understand the concept of a football ball before playing again for us.

[City64]

We were diabolical and so predictable and slow .Wokves were a fucking disgrace time wasting form 5 mins into the game and parking the bus . That rugby player they have hanging about the halfway line for a loose ball paid off for the first time in about 100 games for the cunts , truly awful game .Worst I have watched in years !!!

[Beefymcfc]

This may sound strange but I'm quite relieved. We are the lepers who are asked to perform 100% every single game, just to get over the bias that the PL exert. Hopefilly we will now relax and just olay football after 2 years of constant pressure.

I will also say that we were never going to win the PL this season, it won't be allowed. As for the CL, don't kid yourself.

[RodneyRodney]

Absolutely STUPID banging in so many hopeful high crosses when we've got no big forwards. No ideas , no imangination. BRAIN DEAD
We're looking mentally tired already , 9 games in.
Defensive chickens have come home to roost.
WHY can't Phil get a game ?
Dave needs a rest.
Wolves - very clever, classic rope-a-dope, deserved winners.Baldy got his arse kicked today and deserved it.
Pinocchio is a bitter little bitch ; what's his problem with us ? Snide little snipes every time he opens his gob . Arsewipe.

Cheer up ; United are now 12th

[carl_feedthegoat]

What kind of message does this send to Foden ?

Our so called genius has said he won’t play him in front of DS and Gundo so why would Foden want to stay beyond this season if he has to watch senior players playing shite whilst he’s on the bench ?

I’m telling you now , we will lose Foden if this carries on throughout the season and if anyone else spouts off to me that he’s young etc and he should be happy with a minute here and a minute there (which he doesn’t even get )then you can fuck right off !! Shrek played every game at 17 and Barcelona have a 16 year old starting for them in their matches so Baldie is talking out of his arrogant arse when he keeps spouting on about how “young” he is And he has to be patient blah blah blah !!!

I bet Foden slags him off in private when he comes out with that bullshit .

That made me laugh. Damn certain shit like that will pay off against us

Disagree .
Wolves were organised and intelligent.
