I’m forever popping bubbles verdict thread

[PuntsWolf]

Why are people moaning about MOTD again? Anyone who cares watched the game. Anyone who didn’t watch the game doesn’t care beyond seeing “0-2, comfortable wolves win”.

We had all the ball, we got into decent positions but nothing really came of it. Rui’s catch was probably the most highlights worthy moment.

Constant moaning that people outside of wolves fans don’t care about wolves is very strange.

Saiss got a bonus point in FPL

Clean sheet bonus? Didn't kill a player bonus?

I think it was a no booking bonus!

Think this is harsh on Saiss, Boly was similar, gave the ball away quite a few times. Having said that, its interesting that a few of our players weren't at their best yesterday but we still cruised to a comfy win and didn't ever look like conceding

Because it was a really good, and professional, performance from Wolves. The only real thing to complain about is the highlight package on MOTD!

Honestly think he should keep the hair, afro suits him so much.

Can only echo the consensus here. Game managed perfectly, great subs, easy win. Win the next two like we should and we'll go into the home stretch with as good a chance as any of the other teams chasing fourth/fifth for CL.

Of our 4 shots on target in the first half, Jota's was shown.

The others were Donk's wet header which was easily saved (I doubted it would even register as a shot on target at the time), and Saiss' 40 yard effort straight at the keeper. I can't even remember the other one. There wasn't really anything to show.

The only thing I wish they had shown was when Traore first went past a WHU player near the half way line and left him on the floor. I laughed out loud at that. I don't think anything came of it though. Maybe a corner.

Watched the highlights about 5 times already today. Pedro seems to hit the ball harder every time I watch it. Net lives matter.

Found David Moyes' comments absolutely embarrassing for him. If he genuinely thinks the only difference between the two sides was 'a fast, strong winger' then not only has he just been tactically outclassed but he didn't even realise it was happening.

Thought we controlled the game well in the first half but without managing to create any clear goalscoring opportunities.

The introduction of Traore and Neto just blew them away, so impressed with both of them and Traore looks to have worked on his crossing as the 2 balls I saw him play into the box were fantastic and different to how he usually played them.

I dont really watch MOTD if I watched the match but to be fair it would be difficult to show how on top we were, I also think we get some positive comments from shearer and weight when I've watched it. The commentary on the live game wound me up more

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

As far as I am concerned it was a perfect away performance. Soften them up for an hour and then unleash armageddon.

I've been a bit down on Donck (or was before the break) as not offering enough other than being an extra body, but he was a bit unlucky yesterday, made a few very good forward runs and just wasn't found, passes either weren't played or were overhit. He was typically solid otherwise though. He does a lot of dirty work that won't show up in the stats but you need players like that.

OTOH, word for Rui actually as he dealt with what was thrown at him very well, looked confident claiming the ball and never in danger of a wobble. Think he's improved on that front since he arrived (had to really)

Yeah I was impressed with his catching high balls under pressure, not noticed him doing that in the past, usually punches it doesn't he?

 

[YoungWolf]

If there's one thing I've noticed about Rui from the start it's how cleanly he claims the ball from crosses to be honest.

As much as I like Ruddy he always worried me patting the ball down before catching it in similar situations

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Rui is a world class keeper. There is nothing to worry about there. Sure Allison and Ederson are probably ahead but there is no other Premier League keeper I would want ahead of him bar maybe Henderson because of age. He is a million miles ahead of shit like t-rex arms.

Not true. I wasn't able for one.

As an aside, Rui/s catches from corners with 2 w hammers on him was brilliantly done btw. We forget what a really good keeper we have sometimes.

Ok. Anyone who cares knows how the game went and doesn’t rely on MOTD or any other MSM to tell them.

I think the point is that for anyone unable to watch, they are restricted to motd, radio comms, and perhaps the match thread here or elsewhere online.

Some of us will know that the edited highlights will miss a ton of stuff. Not everyone will.

I think there is also merit to the implication that if you care, you will always be watching the game live. People, for numerous reasons aren't always able to. This doesn't mean one doesn't care or similar.

I was well alight enough by the time MOTD came on not to give a toss.

You’ve somehow managed to create an argument out of nothing. I am not making a reference to wolves fans who didn’t watch or couldn’t watch the game automatically don’t care. You’ve somehow looked for a “superfan” debate out of nothing.

My point is simply people moaning about a highlights programme created by people who have zero bias to wolves. There wasn’t really anything to show and they didn’t show it. People who didn’t watch the game and don’t care about wolves (for the avoidance of doubt, this is non wolves fans), they wont give two shits about wolves getting into good positions and spannering it into someone shins to win a corner cleared by the first man.

I’ve always found this and “why aren’t we first on MOTD” weird. They cater for the masses not us. We aren’t a highlights package team as Mentioned earlier. This isn’t news
