Almost feels pointless making comments or analysing the players given we are going down - probably with a record low points total - disgraced, not to be seen for years and years and years… BUT I’ll try and say SOMETHING.
Arias has had a woeful start to his career here, but I thought he was the best of a bad bunch in that he showed for the ball - actually ran forwards with it - and showed some (justified) frustration at the lack of endeavour or urgency from his teammates. Of course, he has to score his header - but disagree with the earlier comment from Dan about him being “weak”. He’s not the biggest of lads but he’s harder to knock off the ball than a number of our other players combined. That’s about it as far as positives go (I suppose Agbadou was OK but he still lost out in the air for their goal).
Hwang was a disgrace when he came on. He should be ripped apart for the lack of any kind of effort to block the cross or close the man down for their goal. Obviously Johnstone was shite, but if Hwang had tried, maybe the cross doesn’t come in. Pathetic all around.
Joao Gomes, Andre, JSL. Maybe I’m being harsh, but it seems like none of them want to be here, given they’re all playing so far below what we know they’re capable of. JSL put in a genuine 0/10. Yes, he has no service - but Tolu won more headers in a 10 minute cameo than JSL did across the 90.
Wolfe, Jackson, Toti… I just don’t think any of them are good enough, although Wolfe and Toti at least TRIED.
We’re losing potentially 5 players in a couple of weeks (I think). You look at the options on the bench today and the performance from the 11 starters and somehow, I feel it only gets worse from here.
This has just flashed up whilst I was hovering over the post button:
Wolves have now registered the worst ever start to a Premier League season.
The club have equalled Sheffield United (20/21) with two points picked up after 14 games, however Wolves are five goal worse off.
Bed.
