Leicester City away; Build up thread

[YoungWolf]

Even game, obviously they have had the possession. No doubt this was always going to be a tough game

Diogo looks really sharp. He’s far too good for their centre backs

 

[HanDoJin]

Looked like his laces suddenly tied themselves together.

 

[Johnny75]

Not a great half for us. Leicester dominating possession and we look happy for them to do it and try the counter. Jota looking sharp but with little support so far from Donck or Moutinho.

Coady and Jonny look poor at the back with the former looking slow and lacking the command he had last season. Bennett and Boly look solid enough with Rui dominant in his own space.

Solid if unspectacular.

 

[The Bion]

Think we will see Vinagre at some point...Pereira's not going to stop coming forward and Jonny's struggling to cope a bit

Final bit summed up Jota's (and ours) half unfortunately...some good but sloppy when it counts

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

We hardly look shit, jesus christ....

We are off the pace and our final ball is poor, but we are making good runs showing glimpses of what we know we can do

 

[Dire Wolf]

Our midfield 3 have all been poor. They look slow and tired to me. Jonny been poor, Raul hardly had a sniff. Too many misplaced passes and losing possession all around.

 

[YoungWolf]

I don’t think we are even off the pace. Donck and Jonny haven’t had great games. But we will look to gain control as the game progresses, Nuno will be happy with it so far

 

[malta mick]

fairly even game though we have had the best opportunities. every physical contact seems to go Leicester's way though. we usually perk up a bit second half though. Diogo our brighest light so far.

 

[Deano]

I think Moutinho has been good first half, Dendoncker and Neves look a little off the pace. Can probably count the time Raul has touched the ball on one hand, Jota looks a real threat decision making let him down on that one chance as if he passed it to Jonny there it's 1-0.

 

[playtheace]

Doherty not getting a sniff up the right,they have sussed that out and that's a % of our gameplan gone.
That puts more emphasis on Johnny and he isn't being helped to be honest, that said,he looks a bit lethargic.
Moutinho has been the pick of the midfield but just doing the comfortable balls to be honest.
Coady looks like he has a mistake in him today.

 

[Pablowolf]

I don't know what some of you were expecting to see, frankly. This ain't Wolves v Bolton.

 

[Deleted Cyber]

We look shit and our midfield pedestrian. Ndidi is bullying us. Jota being the only bright spark and even he's hardly shining.

We don't look shit.

Last time I looked it was nil nil with no shots on target either side. We need to be a bit sharper all over but they have been higher tempo. I can see us scoring on the break

 

[playtheace]

I don't know what some of you were expecting to see, frankly. This ain't Wolves v Bolton.

I just think we haven't got the ball down or (especially I midfield) had any period of control.
We've seen this in the preseason matches but this match does look like our very first competitive match of the season and we just haven't got going.

 

[Premier Quality]

Two good sides cancelling each other out so far - we need a couple of big performances if we’re going to win this though.

 

[StuardoWulf]

still very hopeful we can win this. Come on Wolves!!!

 

[YoungWolf]

Agreed

 

[Deleted Cyber]

Should score there Raul

 

[jdrodrigues]

Raul should have dropped to Jota... But good run.

 

[Premier Quality]

That’s a great chance for Raul, should have done better

 

[Johnny75]

Jiminez needs to shoot or pass earlier there. Wasted. Great pass from Neves.
