Wolves vs Watford Matchday Thread

Fuckin hell. 2 in 2 mins for Watford

not even. 2 in 58 seconds

 

[t3ch]

boly 6 inches from giving a penalty what the fuck is happening

 

[Alan]

Boly incredibly lucky for that not to be a pen.

 

[Alan]

Fair play to Gracia, he looks to have set them up almost perfectly for us.

 

[Lichens]

This is not the game for Jota. He’s going to start doing petulant things now that we are down.

 

[Lichens]

Referee has lost it

 

[Jinky]

Co-commentator suggesting Nuno is being outmanaged here. Difficult to argue with that so far. The way they’ve set up in midfield means it’s often 5 players against Moutinho + Neves, who, for the first time this season - are being completely overrun.

We could do with a goal before half time, because Watford are going to be very difficult to break down as the game drags on. Massive half time speech coming up for Nuno - but now is not the time for panic. Sometimes you have to tip your cap to the opposition and Watford are playing very well.

 

[Jinky]

And Costa has to do more for me there - he’s trying to force it. Just relax and play the game rather than slinging in nothing crosses when we’re in a promising position.

 

[Dire Wolf]

Having conceded one, it's pretty inexcusable to concede another less than a minute later. Nuno has a job to do at half time.

 

[Alan]

Ref does seem to be blowing his whistle every time we win the ball.

 

[t3ch]

we're still being careless with a lot of balls, frequently heading into nothing

none of our crosses have worked, and we've only had 1-2 people in the box in any attack, it's definitely a waste to try for that with the few chances we've had

 

[PuntsWolf]

Watford look good. Their shape causing is all sorts of problems. The space should be out wide but we’re struggling to keep it and then when we do we’re doing nothing with it. Front 3 passengers

 

[YoungWolf]

They have been better than us, plain and simple.

Like Punts says struggling to keep it at all - I think Nuno will sort that half time. Can see Traore/Cav coming on very soon. Raul looks leggy and Costa not really got in the game.

 

[Siggy]

2nd best in every department. Credit to Watford they are playing some lovely stuff but we have to improve massively to have any chance of a point here.

Except before the goal went in we were in control. Watford's dominance since then is more to do with us losing our composure than anything else.

 

[Templeton Peck]

Started OK and their goal came from nothing but it's 4 v 2 in midfield and we currently have no answer to it.

 

[Deleted Cyber]

Should have connected with the first goal?

No complaints at half time. Being stuffed . We can't string three passes together

 

[GLASGOWOLF]

Only caught the last 10 on Modbro. Watching we were lethargic, slow, all one way traffic in the 10 mins watched I would suggest they had 95% posession

 

[east-coast-wolves]

The guy on comms is right - they are totally overloading us through the centre. There should be space therefore out wide but we can't keep ahold of the ball.

Nuno is being outthought atm (surprised this hasn't happened before when everyone knows we're only going to play 2 in the middle) and needs to change something cos we aren't getting back into this game the way it's going.

 

[Alan]

Both Watford goals look to be excellent finishes tbf.
