useless Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago That was diabolical, at times inexplicably bad, made them look like world beaters, a team that has only won one of the last fifteen, and had lost six of the last seven before today. We had the look of a team that on some level thought the game was already won. As bad as we were, we're lucky to be only 1-0 down, but whether we can turn it around, even to rescue a point, I don't know, will need a massive improvement 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play Maatsen in midfield and shuffle around some other positions. Don't burn out your young players. Never works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villa87 Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago If we have any hope of top 4/5 we need to be beating teams like Wolves at home. Having said that, these clearings in the woods always raise their game against us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have an xg of 0.5. Hardly world beaters. We were poor and they were alright. Thats it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

479Villan Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago McGinn not back out, so that's not good for an injury. Imagine he was stretching it pre-game and it just didn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponky Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago Pretty sure Digne picked up a knock in that atrocious tackle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srsmithusa Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago psychology. that's what's missing. When dominantly successful clubs play they approach every match with 100% focus and energy. AVFC does not appear to do that. Too lackadasical mentally. It's our next big obstacle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBlack Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago Annoying but Wolves were always going to be up for this. We seem to do the opposite for the derbies. Confident that we'll be much better this half and that we'll score. Just hope we can get two and keep a clean sheet this half too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumstopdogs Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago The bare minimum is we need to get some shots on target. If we can get the next goal then hopefully Wolves will buckle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
