FA Cup 4th Rd: Chorley 0-1 Wolves

[Tredman]

This illustrates the problems quite well - Hoever did not have a good game and none of our midfield 3 or front 2 moved much.

Express your comments all you like, that’s what a forum is for isn’t it? Gaslighting other posters because they are not annoyed as you just come across as a bit pathetic.

Saying a win that's all that matters against a team 5 leagues lower than you with a team costing north of 150m is low standards. If you don't like that, tough.

Where the players are is their average position on the pitch, the size of the circle the number of touches and the width of the arrow the number of times the player passes to the other?

I assume so. I meant more that having 4 players pretty much playing in the same space is not going to help.

I believe that's correct.

If you find the original tweet that graphic is from it shows the same for Chorley, insane to think the average position of their defensive line was higher than Wolves. A team 5 leagues higher, with countless greater riches and who enjoyed over 3 times as much possession.

How the fuck can your defensive line be deeper than a bunch of amateurs in that situation?!

Nuno was shit scared of losing and went back to the "don't concede" approach.

This is Chorley. Not quite sure what is shows

The away dressing room at Chorley. I doubt some of our lads have been anywhere like it!

It was shite - we created little through midfield, and anything that was created was squandered up front. Lots to work on.....the only real positive is that we won.....

So what we were saying last night then?

I’m sorry, but this means you’re no longer a fan. Welcome to the club xx

You single Hoever out to say he didn’t have a good game yet he was most our progressive passer. I’m confused as the Passmap suggests hat there were far bigger problems. I should add I don’t fully understand Passmap so might be missing something.

Not really he's highlighted a positive, he's got to get his gloating and victim skills up to ne one of your crew

Well it shows they barely made any passes for a start, as you'd expect with less than a quarter of the possession. But compare the position of Wolves' defenders in relation to the watermark against that of Chorley's, the former were definitely deeper and considering the volume of possession that's obviously by design.

You're always going to struggle in attack with such a cautious approach, no risk brings no reward.

A competition to be outraged at the moment, it feels like sometimes. Anyone who doesn’t join in is defending the club (I’ve been told this twice now, it’s a load of bollocks).

Hoever looks like he was taking risks with his passing but no one else was.

It shows that when he got the ball, his instinct was to knock it backwards into centre midfield, rather than to run at the full back or try and find the forwards. It doesn't show that the movement from the forwards was limited to say the least. The positions and passing sequences are what I'd expect to see if we were 2 or 3 up at half time seeing the game out. It suggests we were more comfortable than we really were

Hoever looks like he was taking risks with his passing but no one else was.

His positioning too, at least he was trying to get up the pitch and into areas that might worry Chorley to some extent. RAN playing like a fullback in comparison.

Hoever did have a stinker, and he wasn’t our most progressive passer, he just received it highest due to the shape and how shit we were set up.
I’m not worried about him though, he’s clearly got a lot of talent and I’m excited to see him develop so this is another 90 towards that in tough conditions for him.

more worrying as I said was our possession, the lack of ideas and how open we looked when we did lose it at times.

Yep, he's being hammered on here though. He took risks and tried to get us forward but gave the ball away and others are hammered for playing it safe.

We should have the talent to be progressive though
