Why did Nuno take off Traore
He was running us ragged, didnt look tired or injure, I'm glad he did of course but weird decision and I think it cost them
Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
Think he may have picked up an injury. He was squatting and stretching his hamstrings not long before he was subbed.beddie wrote:He was running us ragged, didnt look tired or injure, I'm glad he did of course but weird decision and I think it cost them

Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
He's rapid but doesn't have an end product. He was the same at Boro.
Seems dangerous but yet to see him make a real impact yet.

Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
Ran us ragged at times but final delivery was (thankfully) poor.
Probably why he rarely starts for them.

Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
I bet Charlie Taylor was glad to see the back of him, though for all his speed and trickery Wolves didn't trouble us too much.
8 shots but only one on target and even that was a routine save for Tom.

Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
Well there were the crosses where Tarka had to make last ditch challenges
There was the one where Mee did the same
There was the one that needed heroics from Taylor
He was far and away their best player and ran Taylor ragged.

Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
I thought his crossing was ok today. Wasn’t as though he was hitting the first man, massively over-hitting it or shanking them out of play. If anything, they lacked a decent centre forward to capitalise.

Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
Same at Middlesbrough against us two seasons ago, so little comes from him. Of course you are concerned when a team has a winger with pace but he can't deliver a ball. He's got lightening pace and if he didn't he'd be playing his football a long way from the Premier League.beddie wrote:So you weren't worried then every time he got the ball?

However his delivery is and always has been his downfall.

Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
My thoughts exactly. His lack of goals or assists must make him one of the most over-rated players in the PL. Handy in a relay squad though.ClaretTony wrote:How did it cost them? What had he done? How often did he actually deliver a ball with any quality?

He's right about Traore seemingly not bother to practice his crossing because he is not developing as a player despite his pace and power

Pace is all he has, I'd be happy if we had to play against him every week.

Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
I agree. If he had the final ball, he wouldn’t be playing for wolves. His pace is scary tho. Left Taylor (who had a good game really) for dead sooooo many times it was unreal.ClaretTony wrote:Merson is absolutely spot on with Traore
Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
Because he was dog sh1t?
His pace got him into all the right areas and positions but can't remember a single good ball or correct option taken.
The one he pulled back to Jack Cork ( I think ) at 1-0, was game changing.
cheers

Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
He played 3 perfect crosses in the first half which Wood would have gobbled up at the other end. I was relieved when he went off.
Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
He has absolutely no footballing brain, that's why he came off. He's strong and can run, but he has no end product.
McNeil is a far better player.

Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
Didn’t think his end product was all too bad to be honest. He hung up a few decent crosses but thankfully Jimenez wasn’t on the pitch to capitalise. Taylor dealt with him very well.

Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
Because Nuno is a tactical genius, whilst Dyche, as everyone on here knows, is a tactical Pygmy!
Seriously, his delivery might not be all that, but Charlie Taylor’s day got a whole lot easier when he went off. In fact, Wolves never really caused us any more problems after the substitutions.

Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
I would definitely have him here. But does remind me of a greyhounf with a baloon!
Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
It’s looks a strange one but a pattern we’ve seen with most managers he’s played under.
Ultimately, whilst he was running us ragged, the crosses into the box were poor in quality. The idea was clearly Doherty and Jimenez on, and put quality deliveries in.
We allowed space on the flanks (as we always do when defending deep), so Traore wasn’t necessarily needed to work the space for a cross. From Nuno’s perspective, I believe he wanted crosses planted on the head of the attacker, instead of just skinning the full back again.

Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
I was strongly reminded of a game against Stockport in the 90s when Tony Hancock was subbed off by them. Everyone was saying how relieved they were ....I was thinking that he had achieved nothing and we might find things getting more difficult.

Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
Not sure why he was taken off, but I for one was mighty relieved when he was. If we’d had lost that game I can imagine the stick Taylor would be getting on here tonight. The lack of quality of his crosses was our fortune, but let’s be frank, Taylor never got anywhere near him and I am a big fan of the lad.
Re: Why did Nuno take off Traore
He beat our defence almost every time, and put plenty of crosses in, I mentioned it on the match day thread and was pleased he was subbed.
