Blackburn (FA Cup 4th Round) 9/2, Build Up & Match Thread

[pavlosmacwolf]

Doc and sarabia, both logical, but i want to see the new boys

 

[Tony Towner]

Bueno and Hwang

Just the 45 minutes then

 

[prawnking]

Doc on.

How's everyone feeling about his Wolves career so far?

 

[AndyWolves]

That's Bueno done as a wolves player now I think

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Guedes just smiled!

 

[The Bear]

He looks uncomfortable on a football pitch basically. Fuck downgrading Agbadou's game in the process

Everyone was talking about Agbadou taking that RCB spot when we signed him because of his pace. Bueno looks better between two mobile CBs. It was a shite setup decision from the manager.

Who has now had to change it.

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

Jeeeeez, johnstone saved one.
Cunha has to stop trying to do absolutely everything himself.
And rodrigo is some player.

They (Aggie and Santi) both look worse next to each other, though, and I think we know now that Aggie has both a higher floor and higher ceiling individually. I don't hate Santi but it's an easy decision.

I don't remember them looking bad together against Villa.

[Squeak]

Frightened of shooting ...

 

[Jack Regan]

Someone put something in Guedes half time cuppa.

Harsh.
We're 2 nil up and cruising

Which has nothing to do with how Bueno has looked. He was getting run ragged regularly before we scored and knocked the stuffing out of them.

There is no way Santi Bueno should be anywhere near a Premier League squad. He's dreadful. I wouldn't want him in the squad if we went down.

 

[Alan]

Perhaps because Bueno came on the 88th minute?

 

[thisisgil]

..could this potentially be Johnstone's first Wolves clean sheet?

 

[Alan]

I think he can be okay at PL level but he seems to need too specific of pieces around him for making that happen consistently to be worth it, so I guess on some level I agree. I think he gets slated too much but both can be true.

We know he's shit, he's only playing cos VP wants to give 33 year old Doc some kind of break and Djiga isn't ready to slot in.

Lesser of the two evils playing our best CB in what looks like his best position

 

[The Bear]

Now that is harsh. He had a spell when he came into the team against Liverpool, when he was our best CB, which was in the middle of the back three.

He has no pace so needs to be played in the Coady position with two more mobile CBs either side of him. Then he's fine.
