Wolves v Stoke: Carabao Cup Rd 2

[Deutsch Wolf]

The league is everything for me at this stage, we have a great chance (outwith next Monday, although you never know) of picking up a load of points out of the first set of games. That has to take priority over a cup that we're pretty unlikely to win based on its recent history - absolutely ignore it when people peddle it as being "easier" to win than anything else, look who keeps going all the way. So I don't really care what we send out.

But I imagine we'll actually go fairly strong, we tend to unless we're properly cramped by fixtures like we were last season.

A possible reunion with any/all of Fletcher, Afobe, Vokes and Batth.

I hate playing these bastards.

Also imagine Stoke will make plenty of changes themselves, which will disrupt them far more than a few changes of our own disrupts our performances IMO

Isn't Afobe off to a Turkish team?

 

[Nando]

Yes, he's replacing Sorloth at Trabzonspor.

 

[Tony Towner]

Stoke are playing the ressies and kids

Pass bought. I want to see what the others can do.

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

Hey when you have fuck all else ( for two weeks more) Mikey ain't that shit!

This is available to stream live for £10.

Would be a definite for a fiver but will wait to see the team first at that price.

Fair play to them for doing this though

"Revenue generated from streaming matches is split 50-50 between the Clubs involved, the same as if fans were able to attend."

 

[Boozad]

Didn't realise I was giving Stoke a fucking fiver!

Refund! Refund!

:icon_lol:

If we were allowed in it would have been £15 a ticket, so they would have got more so robbing £2.50 off Stoke really

What would we do if Coady got a broken leg or other serious injury? At some point he just has to get injured. Presuming we stick with 3 at the back who takes his spot? Donk? Boly? Saiss? Neves??? Marques? It's not just plug 'n' play - whoever takes that role would need a bit of practice to get up to speed, and I see this type of game as a good opportunity to try it out.

 

[YoungWolf]

Think right now Boly would go there. Saiss/Donck could do a job there too though

 

[Tredman]

Can’t believe anyone is genuinely going to pay £10 for this, to watch a reserve game! Utter stupidity.

 

Just bought mine

Donk for me for his passing range, though passing range might be less important with the tactical tweak we saw yesterday.

[Premier Quality]

I’d have liked to see Marques get a game, but that seems unlikely if he’s back with the u21’s full time.

I hope we win. I get Deutsch’s point about the league, but this is a good squad opportunity for a few of our players to get some competitive game time, and for us to see the likes of Silva, kilman and Sanderson get a run out

 

[Freddeno]

yeah, give Coady a rest...will pay if i cant get it somewhere else..maybe a good time to watch the new guys too

 

[Sedgley Wolf]

Jordan Graham's Gillingham in the next round if we get past the Clayheads. They've just sneaked past Coventry on penalties.

 

[pacamac]

Really hope we go strong for this.

With the exception of players possibly carrying any knocks etc players shouldn't and don't need rest at this stage of a season they need games!

Gillngham in the next round great chance to progress

 

[Tredman]

I'd like to see a proper second string for this:

Söndergaard
Sanderson - Marques - Kilman
Buur - Vitinha - Perry - Richards
Shabani
Silva - Campana​
