Bournemouth (H) 24/4: Build-Up & Match Thread

[Del Woppio]

Three times I've seen Hwang's first touch go fully twenty yards. He's so fucking shit at football

 

[Alan]

None of them really run ahead of the ball. So as a three you just end up with less threat in attack I think

That's probably fair, certainly at the moment.

I think Gomes or Lemina could be an effective shuttler (I believe that's what the kids are calling it), but we absolutely couldn't afford it at the mo with how haphazardly we approach our midfield shape anyway.

 

[Mel Evo]

Was it Hugo or Santi Bueno who was pissed off?

Hugo.

 

[Hereford Wolf]

Yeah, I’m the first person on this forum to comment on Doc

I was talking about all of you!

 

[YoungWolf]

I mean once again we are clearly playing him when he’s not fit but it doesn’t excuse how bad his first touch is

Yeah you could play Doyle behind those two (which is when he’s looked best I think) and it could be effective in a way but far from ideal imo

 

[GLASGOWOLF]

Unbelievably poor

He's never had great hold up play.

I'm choosing to ignore this Hwang slander.

 

[Squeak]

Not a good ball from Gomes but you have to be better than that Sarabia....

 

[YoungWolf]

He's never had great hold up play.

But he should be able to control the bloody thing!!

 

[Squeak]

We really cannot play a simple ball for our player to run onto ... basic stuff....

 

[Jinky]

How’s he not put them 2-0 up there?

Doyle as the #6, Lemina and Gomes/Traore/Bellegarde as dual #8s feels like something is there to be unlocked, but moot anyway as it won't be either of us rocking up in the manager's seat at Molineux next year.

 

[Hereford Wolf]

Serabia so poor lately. Frustrating.

 

[Wolftone]

What is Toti doing there?

 

[Squeak]

"Going through the motions..."

 

[Squeak]

What is Toti doing there?

Only he knows... utterly stupid. I really would ban backwards passes from free kicks.

 

[Squeak]

We're just ball watching.... absolutely no awareness.... strolling around without a care in the world...

Still better than each of those L2 kids we played whilst he was injured, sadly.
