Norwich 0 - 2 Wolves: Something something bogey team...

[Alan]

Not the most fluent attacking performance we'll ever produce, but my word are we solid defensively.

Boly looks like he's ready for the Prem now. If he keeps this up he'll be in a top league next season irrespective of where Wolves are.

Have at it.

Goals in five successive league games for Leo. What a man.

I wanna see PPBs ratings.

Great win. Straight to it but Costa was pap.

Talk us through it then Yank xx

It really is a shame that Bonatini is so shit.

 

[Boozad]

Get in me babbies, great win. Leo is turning out to be a truly inspired signing, his finishing is getting better and he’s only 23, he could really turn into some player.

Yep, great finish for the goal with ze bounce.

The antidote to Saturday's performance

Scored 2 - could/should have had more

Defensively not troubled really

Boly back as if he had never been away

A good night

On one hand I'm delighted, because it was a brilliant/professional performance and the perfect way to bounce back from the defeat to QPR, but on the other hand I'm frustrated, because we got ourselves in to so many good positions and could genuinely have scored 4 or 5 goals if the right decision had been made.

Boly is exceptional, and our defence is so much better with him in it. N'Diaye played well and was running on empty for the last 15-20 minutes.

Neves has avoided a lot of 50/50 challenges over the last 2-3 games, instead focusing on little niggling fouls instead. It's frustrating to watch because he's such a gifted player, but it's difficult to get too frustrated with him because he can play passes that I've never seen from anyone in a gold shirt before.

Nuno is the real deal. There was no way in my mind we were going to do anything other than bounce back in style tonight, and that's something we've not experienced in a long, long time as Wolves fans.

Sounded like we were good value for the win created numerous chance and sounded solid at the back.

It really is a shame that Bonatini is so shit.

But he isn't. The one thing I have noticed is that he scores the more difficult chances, yet he misses the sitters.

Cracking result and great bounce back after Saturday.

Thought it was a pretty even game and the difference was how fucking outstanding our CBs were. Too many poor decisions going forward in the first half, then a lot of really good last-ditch defending from Norwich in the second half. They had their chances too, though, and as much as I will be annoyed that we allowed them to get the ball in our box like they did I also feel we have to give our players credit actually clearing the ball and preserving the clean sheet. Earlier this season I'm not sure Norwich wouldn't have scored a couple from some of the chaos they were able to produce in our area.

Douglas was improved and Doherty was just barely serviceable, although once Leo scored our second he completely reverted to type and he just looks so lazy at times. He was really pissing me off late on as he sold Costa short a couple of times to give away possession when Costa would have been able to take it into the corner and kill some time.

Ruddy didn't have a lot to do in the way of shot stopping but he had plenty of high balls to contend with and to his credit he was imperious. I've been critical of him lately but he made everything his and that's all you can ask for.

Great to have beast Boly back...top of the league again..hopefully Helder will get back to last seasons form too soonish..

This. I've never felt so confident about us as a team because it's so clear how well drilled we are. We are obviously lucky to have a very gifted side, but without Nuno we wouldn't be doing anywhere near as well as this. He's so calm too!

That was somewhat 'tongue in cheek' Frank

He's not

If you had watched him at the QPR game he wasn't especially calm then :icon_biggrin:

Agree with that..we always have a gameplan, he knows what is needed to win, not changing players every week but sticks to a base of players that gel together..players in their positions and isnt we fitter than ever before?

Costa still looks poor compared to what we know he's capable of. yes i know he's been out for some time, but he doesn't look up for it mentally at present. we need him back to last season as ther's a long way to go yet this season.
