Pre-Season Fixture thread (22/23)

[Tredman]

He was there when we did that weird thing with the wolf on the pitch. Think that was championship under Nuno.

 

[The Bear]

At least Neves should be up for this one, being Porto's main rivals.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Why booing Podence? Ex sporting but why that mean he’s booed?

 

[The Bear]

It's certainly a better watch when we get more men forwards in attacks. Actually looks like we might score when we go forwards! Heady days.

Like Patricio he was one of the players who walked after the fans attacked the team

You not watching Wolves TV then?

I wondered too, apparently one of the players who ended his contract after those fans stormed the ground or whatever happened.

 

[The Bear]

I'll venture this opinion now, but we look a better team than last season.

The proof is in the pudding in real games, but we actually pass and move up front and have options.

Whether the defence copes as well is another matter though. I'd still be more comfortable with another CM and Striker.

 

[The Bear]

Penalty won by Neto.

Defender didn't quite get to the ball. Looks slightly soft but probably the right decision.

 

[The Bear]

Who's taking with Raul not playing.....

Neves.

Hesgoals as always. Got Portuguese comms.

On the football side we’re the better team. They are pressing which is a good test but we’ve beaten it well, particularly Jonny.

 

[The Bear]

Tucked away high to the keepers left. Sent him the wrong way.

 

[YoungWolf]

Trying not to get excited by some of the football we are playing. Really sharp.

 

[The Bear]

Hope we've been in Nunes' ear before today's game. A good performance from us will help, or him just watching Donk for 90 mins...

We’re two players away from a really good team.

 

[Deano]

We look really good going forward. It's going to be a massive shame if we have to start the season with Dendoncker in the middle instead of a striker with those 3 attacking midfielders behind.

 

[The Bear]

Assuming the defence works.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Why did he dive!

They haven’t had a sniff

Hwang :/

 

[PuntsWolf]

Another dive but this time he gets it
