A few thoughts, as most of what I want/need to say has been covered by other posters but…
Iorfa, EEL and Hause all have futures in the game – big ones in two out of three cases – but put them together with Stearman in a back four and it’s a disaster: Tony Pulis-lite.
If Golbourne isn’t the answer at LB then we have ten days to buy someone or find out if Deslandes is good enough. Because KH is definitely not the answer – he’s never going to get forward and deliver crosses.
At one point in the commentary, Goodman said that Wolves average 1.9 points a game when Dicko starts and 0.6 when he doesn’t. Come on, Kenny, how can Edwards/Afobe possibly be a better combination that Afobe/Dicko?
But most worryingly, our manager seems to have lost the plot. Someone posted that the players weren’t playing for him yesterday and that looked depressingly accurate. Quite clearly both goalkeepers are now short of confidence. I suspect lack of confidence was behind Ikeme’s moment of stupidity.
KMac clearly wants to go, something must have gone wrong with VLP’s summer, Afobe looked pissed off yesterday, KJ may well have fallen out with Dicko. The only constant in the mess at the moment is Duracell Dave, doing what Duracell Dave does.
Kenny has never struck me as the sharpest knife in the drawer, but his man management has always been good. But if that deserts him then he’s going to look a very limited manager. What galls me is to see “Keep it Simple” Mick sitting at the top of the league. We have four points, and three of those were a lucky win against a team in the bottom three.
Yesterday was just dire, or whatever comes after dire on the Wolves scale of crapness. No plan, no fight, no organisation, no talent, no nothing. We are a million miles off promotion in what – once again – looks like being a pretty poor Championship.
