Match Threads Wolves vs Spurs - Match Thread - EPL Day 2 - KO 2:00 pm

Reguilon looks lost out there.

weird to single out reggie, been far worse players for us

 

[Karol]

Mourinho ball is back

 

[yojambo]

Is anyone else watching this game on Optus Sport 3 channel? If so, do you know who this absolute melt is with the brummie accent please? The most embarrassing, biased commentary I have ever listened to during a game of football and that includes listening to Alan Smith do our game’s.

It's Lee Hendre and its awful.

 

[tommo84]

Every away game is going to be very tough for the first few weeks as stadiums should be rocking. Nuno needs to change things though as we’re being outnumbered all over the pitch. Lloris hasn’t had much to do though which is encouraging, even though Sanchez has looked particularly shaky versus Traore.

 

[bigfrooj]

Well, I quite like being 1-0 up at half-time at Molineux. Well done Tottenham. COYS!

 

[SpursTillIDie1882]

I just don't see how we are going to play progressive football with skip and PEH in the middle of the park

In this game you cant blame them, we've been played off the park all over the pitch, Wolves have pressed fantastically, they've looked like they have had 3 red bulls each and proper on it and fair play to them, they have dominated and we have no answers

 

[Tonio]

Feels like Paratici is going to give the players more of a roasting at HT than Nuno will

Loved how he was sat on the sidelines shouting the odds.

 

[spursville]

It's like people dont expect Wolves to be bang up for this and have us under kosh for long spells in their first home game with fans in Gods knows how long...

Jesus...

We expect more. Perhaps it's a misplaced sense of entitlement. We used to regularly finish in the top until quite recently as well as some decent CL performances. We have (a lot?) more money than Wolves so should be able to hang on to the football and keep some possession at least!

 

[CoopsieDeadpool]

Look, it was a shit half & we desperately need to do something to counter their excellent pressing.

But the only important part of any game, is those numbers in the top corner of your screens (not the fucking clock, you ****s).

 

[ajspurs]

Yeah it's been terrible, for pretty much the whole half... Think the midfield is again being highlighted as a real weak area. We'll continue to never really control games enough of the time if it's not addressed.

Think we also desperately need Kane and Lo Celso on.

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

Who played the ball in for the penalty?

 

[Mr Pink]

It's not even that, we just have a lack of quality all over the pitch.

There is no way this team gets close to top 4 this season, and that should be the reference.

I agree we need to add quality but the over reactions are just ridiculous.

Like we're going to roll up and just dominate them.

 

[Oh Teddy Teddy]

Yeah and what? its Nuno's second league game...

How quick we are to forget some of the turgid football served up in Pochettino’s first year.

 

[SpursTillIDie1882]

I want the wolves manager. That's the sort of football we want to see

Another Mendes Special that one

 

[sparx100]

It's a mentality thing in my mind. Feels like the bigger the team the more we play, but it's almost like the players expect to walk through teams like Wolves.

I think that home advantage is another thing underestimated with the reintroduction of crowds.

Not a great half but we are winning and we have to hope that Nuno throws a few fucks into them and looks to alter perhaps the middle of the pitch to get more possession.

 

[yojambo]

weird to single out reggie, but far worse players for us

Maybe, but he keeps loosing his runners and his touch has been awful. Thank god Adama isn't attacking his side.

 

[idontgetit]

Who played the ball in for the penalty?

I asked earlier and apparently it was Reggie.

 

[adamsky]

We also lose almost every 50/50. I am hoping they will tire as game goes on as otherwise I can’t see us keeping a clean sheet. I do think we can score more if we can string some passes together, they don’t look convincing at the back.

 

[fishhhandaricecake]

Not a fan of having that pair on the bench looking over Nuno’s shoulder.

Just said the same mate, its like ultimate micromanagement, surely Nuno won't like that at all.

That being said I do love Paratici's passion and how involved he is but for me it undermines the coach a bit.

Who played the ball in for the penalty?

Reguilon
