Southampton Vs Wolves Build-Up and Match Thread 15/03/25

He’s so unbelievably shit though, as evidenced by that pass then

Fairly sure I could hear Dan's aneurysm from across the Atlantic. And those don't usually make noise!

Subs have been absolutely shite since coming on. Performance overall has been absolutely shite. How he’s leaving Rodrigo on the bench, I’ve no idea. Gamesmanship embarrassing.

We take the result, of course. But I’m not gonna dress it up. Weird if others want to. That was shite.

Think it's cos we're Wolves fans, Sutton saying Saints are 'lame', Dublin saying we've been comfortable.
At this stage of the season I'm just happy to win a game.

He's contributing now tbf

Hear your point, though.

Awful purchase. How many more times does this point need making. It’s crazy. We needed a starting centre back, to start, so I don’t care if he needs time to step up for any reason.

I can't imagine the Saints' forum (whatever it is) thinks they played well.

Only really got a goal off a fortuitous bounce off the post.

Love how this post gets a thumbs up from Wolftone, when the useless cunt he was fanboying earlier this season managed a grand total of 2 wins in 16 fucking games, but this win today isn't good enough for him GTFO

phew! had to go to a dark quiet place after they scored.

We were scrappy for most of the game, especially the period where we could have gone 4 up.
Not at all good for my ticker, but the ipswich result will do for me.

Good grief, my initial response to PK was meant tongue-in-cheek more than anything, though I fully believe I'm right to say it would be crazy to think any player coming from Belgrade to Wolves would take to it like a duck to water. It's a massively different scale.

I dunno, man. If we stay up and he becomes a starter next season, is it still a waste of money? I don't not understand the urgency of fighting relegation but again, the extremes are exhausting. Everyone wants to make up their mind as soon as possible and seemingly don't have any flexibility afterward.

Southampton are relentlessly terrible. Possibly the worst team in PL history. So the fact that they never really created many chances should be of little to no surprise. However, that does not detract from the fact that apart from 2 decent enough goals, largely gifted to us by them being one of the worst teams in PL history (did I mention that fact?) who cannot defend to save their lives, we were for 89 minutes of that game, utter, unmitigated, absolute wank. We barely strung 2 passes together, and at 2-1 up, no-one, no-one would have been shocked if we'd found a way to throw away 2 points. Agbadou and Toti decent 7 out of 10 performances, JSL a 7 for his goals, everyone else a 3 out of 10 at best. I'd give RAN a 0. He was fucking shit.

What do you want me to say? If anything is wank, it's our inability to enjoy fucking anything.

What the fuck are we here for?

I apologise for wanting to watch professional football players do the basic things of a professional footballer, such as pass the ball to players wearing the same colour shirt. Sorry if my standards are too high.

 

[prawnking]

You sound like a right entitled whingebag tbh.

No one's saying the team today doesn't have problems, or is the finished article...would hate to see what you'd have said if we lost

And I'm sorry I want to enjoy a win, which, last I checked, is the actual point of things.
