I think just because Rodders is off the pace. Gracia has to keep splitting them 60/30. We need them both back fully fit. Even if it is a struggle.

Absolutely spot on, our midfield was non-existent for long periods of the game.

We fought and fought and showed tremendous determination and resilience, but whilst I’m delighted with the win, it can’t paper over the cracks - we are not a good team, and if we manage to stay up, serious changes need to be applied for next season.

Oh well, We’ll just have to enjoy the result for now and be grateful for a sensible and fair (for once) VAR and ref (apart from the 12 minutes injury time) and relax a bit until Arsenal away next up.
On the bright side, it gives Gracia more time to work with the team. It's a process. He hasn't really got his style in yet - and not the players to do it. But 4 games and 7 points is a huge bonus. And more players fit than we had a couple of weeks ago. It's looking a little brighter.

We just need Bamford and Rodders to get more minutes. They'll both get back in the groove if they play more.

Agreed. He's done well in a short space of time. And got a few points to go with it. Looks bright. Give him more time and we'll get better.

My junior high school coach would have benched me for that. "Shut up and play," he would tell me, "Let me yell at the ref,"
Exactly

4 goals, 3 points away from home, jumping 5 places is a good day at the office for Javi and his tactics.

Great result, hurra Gracia, hurra.
Had to read that twice. Thought your wife was Mrs. Trouble.

Absolutely. I'm under no illusions we are dire but the upside is ...imagine what we'll do when we're even average.

Lost it up top once Bamford had gone.

Rodders was strolling around, not closing down or working hard when we were on the back foot.

Obviously, nowhere near match-fit, took his goal well though.

Horrible tackle on Ayling, recompense for the first-half incident when Dawson should have walked.
Feck knows how he recovered from that tackle he must be made of rubber. It was nasty... There wasn't many complaints.

Spurs threw away a 2 goal lead to SH. I know some are worried about them as our last game. I'm not. Especially if they have nothing to play for.

He was in control of the ball after the shirt pull but threw his arms in the air and Summerville nicked it from him.
There's far too much of this going on with every team. The entitled no longer want to fight and think they should be awarded everything. I'd be fkn fuming if I was wolves boss.

Indeed Pascal stemmed Traore's flow. I couldn't believe how much space we were giving him, it was like watching Marsch football all over again, schoolboy-ish.

I'm hoping that its Sky 'game of the day'. The whole game shown at 8.30 PM tonight on Sky sports premier league channel. Surely it should be with all the goals, red cards and argy bargy :duno:
