Lighthouse Posted 7 November, 2020 Share Posted 7 November, 2020 I think Vokins was described as have a ‘knock’ so if he’s fit then I’d have him in, assuming RB isn’t fit. The only other dilemma is Redmond/Djenny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy Posted 8 November, 2020 Share Posted 8 November, 2020 (edited) I will resume betting $10 for a win. I find having a small bet makes me feel as if I have "skin in the game" even if I'm so far away. Edited 8 November, 2020 by Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeyboy Posted 8 November, 2020 Share Posted 8 November, 2020 Wolves have been a bit of a mixed bag this season. Didn't look great against Newcastle but are always going to be a threat going forward. Hopefully RB will be back, don't fancy Stephens or Vokins facing off against Traore (even if his form hasn't been what it was last season).

WALK DMC Posted 9 November, 2020 Share Posted 9 November, 2020 Wolves have only scored 8 goals all season which only the exceptionally poor bottom 4 have done worse than. They sold their 2nd Top scorer (Jota) and their equal 3rd top scorer (Doherty) from 2019-20 and apparently Jimenez hasn't been in great form this season. This isn't to under estimate them; they are a solid team with good players, but if we can nick a goal they may struggle to score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolves look like a side who are good out of possession, organised, difficult to break down etc - but they don't seem to be that progressive when they have the ball, bit tentative. Initially it will be hard for us to get a foot hold as they won't give us much - if any - space. First goal will be key, if they get it then they'll shut up shop and it will be insanely hard to get anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Keef Posted 9 November, 2020 Share Posted 9 November, 2020 No reason at all to fear them. They are a good outfit no doubt, but so are we. Having watched a couple of their recent games they don't seem to be clicking quite as they were last season and as mentioned above I think they are missing Jota and Doherty, It'll be a tight game, but if we can play as we did against Newcastle, Villa and Everton then I think we can nick a result. Need to score early though as they are definitely a second half team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwertyell Posted 9 November, 2020 Share Posted 9 November, 2020 Very good players, but they're extremely formulaic and structured in their approach, to the point of being quite negative. Always end games strong, when the manager lets them take the handbrake off. We can get something there, for sure, but they're potentially excellent with the shackles removed.

JRM Posted 9 November, 2020 Share Posted 9 November, 2020 We dont actually know when this game will be as i think PPV has been scrapped so a decision needed on whether or not to televise and how. Big factor will be how many players from each squad are called up for international duty and how far away, you never know a covid scare and suddenly a few players need to isolate, Raul Jimenez is always dangerous hopefully he's gone to Mexico for a while. Wolves are one of those teams we always seem to struggle against, I can't recall many wins in the last few years, even when 2-0 up we crumbled and managed to lose last season. 1-1 draw my prediction, would be a good result.

Baird of the land Posted 9 November, 2020 Share Posted 9 November, 2020 Not a team I typically feel that confident against. hopefully we can pick up where we left off prior to international break and get something out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right away end is terrible, spread so thinly along the side ofthe pitch impossible to get much atmosphere going, we went to a cracking pub around the corner from the station but it was full by 11.30. They've got quite a few away on international duty, very little time for 1st team training before the game https://www.wolves.co.uk/news/first-team/20201110-internationals-fourteen-wolves-players-away-on-international-duty/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudi7s Posted 12 November, 2020 Share Posted 12 November, 2020 Wolves have been poor this season, so dull, but always seem to get points. They can't create much / have a ceiling on how many chances they create per game (but they normally take the 1/2 they do). If we're on it, we win.

JRM Posted 13 November, 2020 Share Posted 13 November, 2020 I think it favours Wolves more than it does us, they have many more first team regulars away on international duty. I wouldn't be surprised if they've deliberately made us play last that weekend to prevent us going top for a while again and embarrassing the premier league global product. Having played our last game on a Friday this will a 17 day gap between fixtures, you'd have thought Ralph will give them a few days off now.

Eric The Red Posted 13 November, 2020 Share Posted 13 November, 2020 I think every team would be happy with the couple of extra days after the internationals. Certainly not scared of Wolves based on their recent form. If we have close to a full squad to pick from then I would be very hopeful of at least equalling last year's draw.

Though does give Wolves a chance to schedule in a few more training sessions with their returning international players. To be fair it gives us the same advantage, although they have a few more players away! I think Ralph was worried about Jan, as he only comes back on Friday - so it gives us much more time to play with. And I'm glad everyone has finally seen sense and scrapped that bonkers PPV idea. Lots and lots of football to look forward to over the crammed festive period! Not sure how they're going to schedule that, but it'll be fun!
