Bit of a back-handed complement to Coleman. Whingeing Portuguese twat.... there’s a few of ‘em. He might find many more teams Park the bus, so he’d better learn fast.
 
There is not much difference between us and them, and we had key players out etc. This is the championship remember, Chris will get the players in and players out like Cattermole and rodwell, and replace them with decent lads. Asoro needs to be played next week though and lets hope we finally get that first home win !. I would keep going 5 along the back and at home when we are winning.

It might not be a bad idea to stick with five in defence, as much as I don't like being too defensive at home we're absolutely terrible at the SOL so grinding out a few draws and keeping clean sheets might be a decent platform to build on.

Clean sheets build confidence and stops the rot. Big Sam knew that and it looks like Coleman is working from the same manual.
 
Nuno Santo: Sunderland didn't want to play football against us

The Wolves boss says he is disappointed with a draw but will find a solution for teams coming to 'not play football'

Wolves boss Nuno Santo says his side must find a way to combat teams like Sunderland not wanting to play football.

Chris Coleman came to Molineux with a plan to frustrate Wolves and put plenty of men behind the ball, and it worked.

Speaking after the game, Santo said he believes his team will find a way to counter this in the future.

He stated: " I am disappointed because this is a not a victory, I'm not frustrated. This is part of football.

"Victories are hard to achieve.

"We work hard to achieve that and the boys worked hard.

Wolves 0 Sunderland 0 - here's the player ratings, they are lower than usual!

"There was only one team on the pitch trying to achieve three points and that was us.

"Our fans need to realise that we need them to keep pushing really hard right until the end.

"Games like this will happen again and we have to find solutions.

"I thought we created enough, the high standards will always be there and we are a team that wants to grow and improve.

"One of the things we have to contend with is nine men behind teh ball not wanting to play football.

"I am not worried about the gameplans of opponents, I will find solutions to mine.

"They didn't stop us playing, we created. Things will be different."

The fans turned out in force on a frost old day. The pavements were lethal and the temperatures were arctic, unusually, it was the team that slipped up.

Wolves huffed and puffed but couldn’t blow down the resolute, and at times ugly looking Sunderland house.

Sunderland parked the bus and the fans were left with very little warmth from the players on the pitch.

The bobbly-hatted Molineux masses had to endure a poor afternoon from their team but as long as there is plenty of festive cheer in the coming weeks, they won’t mind too much.

Ahhhh diddums !!

The next time he thinks that they can't get three points I am sure that he will try for one. His mistake was in preparing his team for a walkover with no Plan B.

When they go to Old Trafford next season he can speak to his fellow countryman Jose about parking the bus. He is the zen master at it.....see if he bitches and moans to him.....just a part of the game. Doesn't need to get his panties in a twist....
 
Echoing most sentiments on here. Can't work out why a manager would complain about a team almost bottom of the league coming to stop them playing rather than playing an open attacking game which would allow them to simply do what they want.

As said before, if they get promoted, let's watch them go all out attack against City, Chelsea etc. See how they get on!!
