I am not sure about tiring in 2nd half has anything to do with kante. Two games that he played for us, pool and Leicester, we still got battered in 2nd half. With kante, we are just ok defensively, without him we are a disaster. Johnnyeye, the wes, robsblubot and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not keeping possession and not winning second balls makes you run constantly chasing the opposition. the main reason I disagree with the singling out being done, esp azpi. Someone will always look bad and it is usually in defense, but it’s always the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAM09 7,064 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 If Rudiger does start, he's going to need to have the game of his life with our potential back four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manpe 10,861 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Yeah I'm usually pretty optimistic, but winning this one will feel like a bit of a miracle. Kante and Emerson out, Alonso in... I'm hoping he will have the game of his life to claim his stake, but what I think will happen is that he will be targeted and it will pay off for them. Zouma being his cover on that side isn't encouraging either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are a side currently inferior to the likes of leicester; utd and on par with Sheffield. With our defence up against Jota, Jimenez, in-form Traore etc...now we lost our best defender for the match - the anxiety is retraceable. I do not expect us to lose, a draw would probably be a decent result, a win would be a highly surprising. Supermonkey92 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You honestly think most of the comments aren't warranted? Don’t get me wrong. The pessimistic views are warranted but till the point people think we have absolutely no chance against Wolves? It is probably likely that we will be left fuming and exasperated over the defending and performance again but at the same time, there’s quality in this side. If we play to our potential, we can win this - it’s Wolves, not Man City - and at some point, we gotta improve, gotta play better as a team, with or without several key players. We can’t keep on putting the last few average performances forever. robsblubot and communicate 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

!Hazard! 3,394 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Bizarre lineup. You would expect Azpi to play as CB if we're going three at the back and yet there are three other CB's there as well? And why on Earth is there Willian instead of Pedro or Pulisic communicate, Supermonkey92 and the wes 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
