Holy ****, Wolves are ****. We are even ****ter. No holy ****s on that point because we all knew it already. Roll on June
Yeah, he's a WBA fan and when Arsenal beat Wolves he was bouncing up and down in front of them doing the 'boing boing Baggies'
Gao took over a team that finished 8th in the league and got to the EFL Final and we then finished 17th with a last minute escape from relegation under Pelegríno and Hughes The depletion of the squad started with various bad signings Ralph was a high point for a while, but then wasn’t There’s no such thing as a reasonable estate agent I didn’t say Dragan was a good owner, but that he’s trying to be He’s either going to improve or he’s not and he’s prepared to invest To quote Tom Hanks and Mark Rylance in Bridge of Spies … Am I worried about our situation? Will it help?
First visit to this thread since getting home late last night. Sorry if this has been mentioned before but my memory of this game overall will quickly fade but there was one moment which unfortunately will live in my memory for a long time… 92 minutes, chasing the game and what does Juric do? Bring on Jack Stephens!! ****ING GENIUS!!!
And please for the love of god, I think it’s time to stop the bloody goal celebration music. It’s embarrassing
So much this. He stands out like a player from a top half team. He’s plays his heart out and then gets slagged off by an inept manager. That will make him want to stay. Not!
Exactly. It’s actually disgusting how out of touch this manager is with what’s actually happening on the field. There are so many players he should be criticising before Fernandes. Absolute joke
I surprisingly don't mind it, but when you're 2-1 down on 9 points in ****ing March and as **** as we are, read the room and sack it off
I've thought about this and I think we should just get rid of Juric now, he's obviously having a detrimental effect on the players and longterm it's going to harm the team. He's simply not up to scratch. Apparently he has a "break cause " so just pay him off and then and bring in Lallana for the remaining games. What difference would it make? We're losing week in week out and have no pride or passion whatsoever . It's so obvious that certain players have jacked it in and are not fully committed ( the much over-rated, one footed Tyler Dibbling for example, who I thought on the whole had a shocker yesterday ). I'd much rather see someone like Tall Paul play who's pretty dreadful really but puts in maximum effort instead of some of his team-mates who clearly can't be arsed. I'm not SR out just yet but the summer will be the test point on whether they know what they are doing or are simply a bunch of narcistic chancers. A full reset is needed and a 90% clear out of the team required. Currently I'm 70 - 30% against them being able to do a proper job and can imagine some half-arsed last minute panic buying resulting in another bloated squad full of sub-standard players that cost too much money. We are without question the worst team to ever grace the Premiership by a country mile. Embarrassing!
Just remembered something from the game yesterday. We had a corner. Wolves didn’t leave anyone up. And yet they clear the corner and somehow end up with a 4 on 2 on the edge of our box. How does that happen!?
It's something which I think more and more teams are doing - including the likes of Liverpool and Brentford. Bring everyone back when defending a corner, but not with the intention of having all 11 players defending. Instead, have three or four of them set up to break from deep. Because none have stayed forward, the other team will probably only leave one guy back defending - which in turn helps those players to counter from deep, should they get the opportunity. A decent team really shouldn't be getting caught up by out it - it's hardly a genius tactic. Alas, we're far from a decent team.
Agree Juric should go (wanted him out after the Burnley game). It feels like he is deliberately trying to get sacked, so he can get his pay off and head to the beach a couple of months early. Think you're being harsh on Dibling though. First half he was bad, but he really stepped it up in the second half, and was the only player looking like like creating anything. Great work for the goal, and was tracking back and making important tackles. If you want to slag off someone for lack of effort, then I'd suggest Sulemana. Looked totally half-arsed for the entirety of the game (though in fairness I think Wolves did their homework and doubled up on him whenever he got the ball).
