markjazzbassist Posted January 4, 2021 Report Share Posted January 4, 2021 Wolves haven't been in great form this season, and with Raul Jimenez injured they don't have great options up top to replace him. I think if we play our game we should be able to get something out of this one. Play the best lineup and have a go Pickford Coleman Mina Keane Godfrey Doucoure Davies Gylfi James DCL Richarlison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted January 4, 2021 Report Share Posted January 4, 2021 I think Wolves have played like they always play but without Jimenez and Jota they are lacking that attacking threat. The players they have brought in are young and aren't quite up to speed and power of this league. He has had a lot of plaudits but I am not a fan of Semedo, I would love Richarlison to get at him. All told though, I expect this to be a fairly unexciting low scoring game. First goal wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s not even training with the team yet. It’d be reckless in the extreme to have him involved in any way in this game. pete0, Matt, Btay and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairWooney Posted January 9, 2021 Report Share Posted January 9, 2021 Agree with that team as long as Digne is feeling fit and well after today's game. Good to have pretty much first choice line up available again Hopefully see a performance to match MikeO and markjazzbassist 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t feel we have played particularly well for a majority of games this season and yet we’re right in the top 4 mix. I know there’s a positive to that but I’m really hoping to see some more fluidity and control to our performances. Bailey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During his time at Middlesbrough Tony Pulis would play Adama on whichever wing was closest to the dugout so that he could be managed through games. He's increadibly fast and a unit but strictly football-wise I think there's a lot to be desired. The fact that the two attributes I just mentioned are out of this world has meant that, IMO he has gone further in his career than most would have expected. Digne might have a problem keeping up with Traore and keeping him in his back pocket, but it isn't as though we've got to contain a Messi or Ronaldo - show him out wide and box him in at the corner flag. 13 hours ago, markjazzbassist said: Jimenez out makes them a limp dick dog.

Ffs we are the blues let’s win this and keep top 4 ambitions Scored three in their last Premier League game ! 26 minutes ago, MikeO said: DC-L out is a bit of a pain. Would play Richie up top personally, I like Tosun as a poacher but think his all-round game isn't enough. Would rather forfeit Richarlison out wide and perhaps move someone else (Iwobi, Gordon, Bernard?) in his place to keep the level of quality as high as it can be. As much as I don't want to see DCL out of the side, with such a congested fixture list hopefully a nice break for the lad - give him a breather before Villa on Sunday.

I think it’s fair to say he’s come a long, long way from his Boro days... Whilst Traore hasn’t been at his best this season he is still capable of those magic moments in a game. Sounds simple, I remember Digne trying to stand him up (maybe last season ) and got absolutely burnt! Be interesting to see how it unfolds if Digne is up against him.

Best way to defend against him is to cut his supply off without the ball he can’t hurt you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btay Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 Well given the injuries and hoping that Richarlison is fit. Pickford Holgate Mina Keane Godfrey Gomes Doucoure James Iwobi Richarlison Digne More of a 4231 than a 433. No Richarlison then I guess Tosun uptop and just hope he can get a few chances and take them like he did in the cup.

In the process of injuring himself he'd probably take out James for the rest of the season. That's the level of weapon of mass destruction we're talking here.
