How come the lanky kid started ahead of the lad you told us was the greatest young striker in the world? 

 

Take it everyone's realised Porto had your pants down and sold you a duffer?

Give him some stick Finners ....

England usually struggle against Portugal

Traore and the kid striker.

 

This, by Nuno standards, is chips all-in.

Arsenal fans have made it difficult for any new manager, though. Whatever they thought of Wenger, he delivered Champions League football for 20 years and was winning trophies in his last couple of seasons. Emery reached a European final. Arteta won the FA Cup. All three had fans turn on them within six months of their achievement.

 

Trophy winning managers have their heads called for. Delivering Champions League wasn't enough. Surely then it has to be the league title? Or maybe even latter stages of the Champions League?

 

Good luck with that. I appreciate that they are well below where they should be but maybe they overrated Arteta based on the Cup semi and final?

 

I do think the vitriol aimed at Wenger has backfired despite the concerns they had. It is a very difficult place to manage.

there are those on this forum who have want Rodgers out - never under estimate the impact of social media in broadcasting breathlessly incomprehensible ideas and thoughts to other breathlessly incomprehensible people. Pigeon shouters of the world unite!!

I'm actually glad that Adama Traore had that freak purple patch where he pretended to be a footballer for a couple of months, cos it's convinced Wolves to stick with him and actually keep playing him. 

 

Legit makes Jeff Schlupp look productive. 

 

Twenty games without a goal contribution

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Not sure if that Fabio lad is gonna score a goal to get Wolves back in the tie or tell me about the gnarly air he's been getting at the half pipe

[moore_94]

I have only been watching this match and have already seen Burnley have 2 good chances to score, have Wolves been this open at the back all game?

Wolves miss Jiminiez (sp) ..

Trying to decide if that makes you sound young or old. 

[Super_horns]

Burnley back to their usual ways.

 

Keeping clean sheets and nicking goals.

There's actually a hint of General Smuts circa 2008 about him.

Not sure why our fans are jumping on this. We would look worse than this without Vards

He's 18 and not very physically built yet. Not the best game for him.

Because he was playing better than Jota. Jota had very similar goalscoring spurts for us as he has for Liverpool. But in between them he offered very little. I'm well aware he'll get more chances playing for Liverpool though.

Yup i agree

If I could say anything to sum up wolves this season it would be that they appear to have tried to fix what wasn’t broken...

Minutes until Connor Coady "clashes heads" with someone and needs to go off for a concussion sub?

It’s not just in attack, they just look defensively poor as well.

They look ****ing honking all round the park and it's nice to be cheered up by it given our results against muck like Villa and Fulham.

Question is does everything else unravel with it? Did he bring mendes or did mendes bring him?
