Re: Maatsen. Whenever I have paid attention to him, he's looked disastrous. Outmuscled easily off the ball. I can understand why they've been reluctant to field Maatsen.
Actually when the club was selling the senior players - Kova, Kante, Kai, Mount - I don't think there was any support for keeping them at the club. But now they've collectively gone, we are recognising just how much experience has left this squad.
People like Jackson getting 8 yellow cards, Palmer and Sterling getting suspended together, just a complete lack of control on match-day. It took Wolves one adjustment after around 20 mins to shut down our attacking routes.
