Quite sad watching Jay Rod

Have to agree. Little or nothing to offer now.

Costly mistake by Houtonje.

Slow and no threat. It’s a bit like a pre season friendly.

Kgun5 · Post by **Kgun5** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:45 pm

He was away by a couple horse lengths.

Will Jay start on Saturday? Because we’ve got no chance if he does.

Anyone saying Hountondji is having a good game, isn't watching the same game as me. Everything breaks down when he gets the ball. Lost possession again there and cost us dearly.

that's one of the worst defensive lines I've ever seen

Hountonji will 100% be out on loan somewhere in Jan

They weren't wrong about Worralls pace were they

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:46 pm

That goal came from the lad from Caen making a terrible decision with the ball. Defence sluggish.

ClaretFelix · Post by **ClaretFelix** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:46 pm

Andre Gray couldn't trap a bag of sand, but at least he utilised what he had.
I'm not sure Hountondji has anything?
Like others, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, but Parker must be really worried about a lack of firepower

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:46 pm

He isn't a winger though. Played left on Sat and now right. Maybe we use him where he should be and take Jay off.

Goalposts · Post by **Goalposts** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:46 pm

You dont see the entire back line 5 yds inside the opposition half to often.. and that’s why

Foshiznik · Post by **Foshiznik** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:47 pm

Where was McNally?!

TsarBomba · Post by **TsarBomba** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:47 pm

Abject going forward.

Which isn’t a bad thing with 2 days of the window left.

Might encourage us to up the offer for Whittaker.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:47 pm

Foster on.

Missing that pace at the back

And on the wings. And up top.

He was 90 yards away from our goal. Why do our fans always need to find a scapegoat for every result.

karatekid · Post by **karatekid** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:48 pm

I'd save Foster for Saturday. Games gone now.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:48 pm

Thought Foster was refusing to play etc?

Kgun5 · Post by **Kgun5** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:48 pm

JRod hustled off the pitch, at least.

The Hung Juror · Post by **The Hung Juror** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:48 pm

What the hell was Worrall doing?

Newcastleclaret93 · Post by **Newcastleclaret93** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:48 pm

I think as it stands we just have to take all of this with a pinch of salt.

Parker is doing the best with what he has got.

Players are not settled into a system. Let’s give all the lads a break for the next few games

blatherwickstattoos · Post by **blatherwickstattoos** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:49 pm

That goal came from that lanky donkey losing it at the edge of their 18 yard box. Terrible football. We may look better with Jay off now.

Young lad looks very tidy would like to see him on the ball more

Foshiznik · Post by **Foshiznik** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:49 pm

Maybe Foster coming on might make a difference. Are our fans booing him?

Burnley Ace · Post by **Burnley Ace** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:49 pm

I know he’s one of our own but I hope we never have to see him starting a game for us. He should be having a swansong at Accrington

CrosspoolClarets · Post by **CrosspoolClarets** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:49 pm

Can the idiots stop slating our new young striker please? New level last Saturday, now the highest level, takes time to adapt and grow.

The goal was mainly due to a bizarre defensive line miles inside the Wolves half.

Doesn't move like a footballer; doesn't react or respond like a footballer. Not even a rough diamond.

No wolves fans booing Jay for the West Brom connection

Is Podence for sale.

Still top quality technical ability wise

fidelcastro · Post by **fidelcastro** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:50 pm

Even with the players left out, that lot down the road will never get a better chance to beat us on Saturday.

All on now, Bill.
We sold the others at half time.

Thanks, that helped.

He does have a tendency to run down blind alleys, from the little I’ve seen of him.

File under the lad we got from on loan under laws. That bad I’ve forgot his name. Bolton away he looked like he’d only just played football that evening.

I guess Hountondji is this seasons Trafford.

Has anyone ever watched McNally and thought he had a strange athletic shape?

I really don’t get what everyone is complaining about.

Numerous others have looked worse

ArmchairDetective · Post by **ArmchairDetective** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:54 pm

MCdermott has looked bright since coming on. Nice to see a young lad getting a chance. Massengo has put himself about too. Rest haven't shown much but my stream isn't great so might have missed some action

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:54 pm

Given a run in the side, I think massengo turns into a real player.

They've brought some great subs on, shows the difference in strength in depth at the moment.

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Wed Aug 28, 2024 8:55 pm

Fir perspective this is Wolves reserves playing at a practice game pace. Craig Dawson is head and shoulders better than any defender currently on for us !!!! Worrall is carthorse speed. McNally giving 50% max. I am about to do something I have never done before and that is turn the tv off when Burnley are playing. I am beyond disgusted

Typical League Cup game this except you can't cheer yourself with the usual "well at least the first team will be on display on Saturday".

That display against Luton seems a lifetime ago, it was 16 days...

He's a bit of an isosceles.
