Guest av1 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 I don't know where my optimism has come from but i can't see anything other than a comfortable win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srsmithusa Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 my biggest complaint is no Amavi. I agree the midfield may be weak, but not sure we have the club roster to make it rock solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, not now since we sent "The Rock" to Fiorentina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NottingVilla Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 How depressing Norwich and Newcastle walking the league and we start the game in the relegation zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romavillan Posted October 15, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted October 15, 2016 @KHV zenga likes to play compact and through the middle if he has the players, not sure he does at wolves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what happens when you appoint capable managers who know how to buy players and build balanced teams instead of spunking all of the transfer budget on forwards and totally neglecting the midfield, defence and goalkeeping areas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 I'm happy with that line up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richards was poor last season, but has always been pretty decent as a RB. Bacuna is a guaranteed liability. I'd rather DeLaet as would everyone else, but injuries do this.

Guest Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Great reception for Bruce, similar to the sort of reception McLeish got but the media didn't report. Hopefully we can finally put to bed the pathetic comments that we hated AM because of where he came from. It was about the fact he played ultra defensive football and got our rivals relegated. The media would have been quite pissed off if Liverpool had signed an Everton manager who did that, or Arsenal - Spurs and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not 100% I think he did, but even if he didn't, I think that's a set up we need to try, interested to see how effective we can be playing simpler football than Ayew hogging possession - he doesn't get enough goals or assists for all his over indulgence and grimacing. Happy with Richards, he is a big personailty, gets goals and should monster this division if he keeps his position discipline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonic_bouma Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Well Warnock and McLaren have picked up wins straight away. Chances of Bruce doing it? knowing our luck this season probably absolutely zero! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDM/Tim and co are not managers I had much faith in and although Bruce concerns me long term I think he is the right man for us now. Think we will have more luck under him than previous managers.
