Late equaliser for Huddersfield against Blackburn, means they're both 4 points behind us instead of Blackburn being 2 points behind.
Good win against one of the best sides in the league. 2 points off top now in 4th place. Saturday at Cardiff has potential to be an exciting game.
Couldn't believe it! On the scoreboard it was 5 -2, walked into the concourse and it was 5-4. I had to look twice, stare a little, and then walk away before it actually sunk in...
Didn't think we really deserved it today; they seemed to have more possession and our passing was very sloppy. We put Amos under pressure far too many times with crap or risky backpasses and we looked open defensively. I think if it wasn't for two moments of brilliance from the strikers we'd be moaning our tits off now. How many chances did we actually have? The best one I can remember apart from the goals was Simpson's snapshot in injury time that went just wide.
Not a great technical display, we were rather sloppy for most of it. Good job they were happy to play it along their back four and then hoof it up to Doyle. Two good goals from Aluko & Simmo. Very impressed with them so far this season. Back 4, solid when Wolves went forward as Amos (luckily) didn't have much to do, or was it they were crap up front? We need to stop gifting the opposition goals- you could just sense it was coming though- not through Wolves efforts on goal but because we were giving them the ball back through crap passing and taking too greater risk. To make Amos' mistake worse, Macca should have just booted that ****e cross out, but he misjudged it and i went under his feet & hit Chester and rebounded back for Ward to tap in. Anyone else **** themselves when Macca tries to pass the ball? The same with Amos, i dunno what the hell he was doing there. Thankfully, we saw it out well. Faye came on and looked composed in heading everything that came into the danger area. Thought Simmo had scored again right at the end. MOTM- between Simmo and Evans for me. That Sako for them looked quite handy.
There were at least 2/3 very dangerous crosses by Elmo (has the lad hit a bad cross yet?) that were good chances but our strikers are hardly giants. I'm beginning to think in games where we're struggling we should throw Faye up top like Blackburn used to with Samba.
Agreed. They both seem to be our only liabilities. Can't wait for Hobbs to come back! Agreed with MOTM as well, Evans has really upped his game these last few weeks and looks a class act, Simpson never stops working. He's a better version of McLean that can actually score goals!
I hope I never have the misfortune of watching Wolves ever again. **** them. The most boring team I have EVER seen play. It was all about possession, at the expense of attacking 99% of the time. They just played it safe, constantly. It was ****ing dreadful to watch. Fair play to City for keeping their concentration, and attacking when they could. We were careless in possession, but when we got forward we were mostly dangerous, while they were embarrassingly toothless. It's obviously the way this Stolbakken bloke wants them to play, some kind of faux-continental tippy-tappy bollocks that achieves nowt, and it's eye wateringly ****ing dull. I hated it. They deserved to get beat. Their fans were urging them to ****ing do something most of the match but no, back between the defenders it went. It just crushed the match. So, so, so, so, so, so, so, so boring. I'm glad they lost, and I hope I never see them again.
