Wolves v Brentford: The Matchday Thread

[malta mick]

Wolves far the better side, but no clear cut scoring opportunity as yet

Tex again beats his man and is brought down on edge of area - free kick given

H/T 0-0

Utter shite ref once again. Hasn't got a clue. Bodvarsson clattered into several times and he gives nothing.

The non penalty decision was followed up shortly after with Iorfa getting shoved in the back near our corner, 2 yards in front of the assistant, and a free kick was given to them!! Utter shite.

As far as the football goes it was a poor game until 20 mins when we came to life through Tex. Lots of over-intricate stuff though and misplaced passes. Two great counters ruined by Doherty overrunning the ball when we had a 3 on 2, then Iorfa passing straight to their player around halfway when we had a good counter on.

Tex needs to learn a simple pass. He tries to beat too many players all the time. Costa tries too many flicks which don't come off too. Edwards has been ok. Not great but ok. Saiss has disappointed. Gives the ball away a lot.

The iorfa decision was fair Bear. Wasn't a foul and he caught the ball.

The pen was a ridiculous decision.

 

[Lycan]

Teixeira has been class.

 

[AndyWolves]

BBC stats suggest we've slightly better possession and 6 shots on target to their 2

 

[The Bear]

What! He was nowhere near the ball and shoved him in the back.

Nah. Right in front of it. Went over so easy. The ref has been shit but he got that one right.

What! He was nowhere near the ball and shoved him in the back.

Brushed him, probably should have been a Wolves FK but Iorfa went down so softly and grabbing the ball is always risky!

Tex has been class, but we need both him and Costa to whip a few early balls in to keep the brentford defence guessing.

 

[The Bear]

Fair enough. You guys were closer than me to it.

 

[Nando]

Get in!

 

[malta mick]

1-0 Tex !

 

[Boozad]

Get in Tex!

 

[Hamlet]

By all accounts and purposes that sounds an excellent goal!

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

Go Tex!!!!

47' Rapid counter - Costa wins possession and breaks downfield, he picks out Teixeira who dummies his defender before finishing!

Really poor commentary on twitter today, major incidents only.
