Can't believe people think Thor will do a job. He's too lightweight I don't think this theory actually exists anymore. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSV Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 (edited) I know this will never happen... but i would put Lansbury in today. I would move Hourihane in the deeper role to protect back four and Lansbury in the Hourihane role. I just think we need that crazy sort of player that would just snap at everything in midfield. Yes this is Jedinak but i just think he will be too slow in this game. BB is quicker and more mobile but doesnt have the bite. Lansbury will have something to prove and he gets really stuck in when playing in CM. We also havent seen much of him in a team with a bit of confidence. We need mobility and players who can pass and retain the ball. Wolves wont pose too much of a physical threat or aerial threat to require Jedinak. We need to really press from the front and midfielders to press theirs and not give them time on the ball.

a m ole Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 I’ve played with and against guys from Portugal and they certainly aren’t afraid of a bit of rough! As JohnnyP says, playing the ball today will be important, keep a tight back line and let Grealish, Adomah, Snod, Hourihane and Grabban work their magic. I have a good feeling today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats why i think playing Mile is a bad idea. We need BB or i think Lansbury 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need BB or i think Lansbury I’d go with B.B. but wouldn’t be against putting Henri in, he’s got an engine and the most important thing against players with good feet is to keep moving with them and stay a yard in front, block off the pass and move them into a corner where you can poke the ball away.

When we get chances we must take them , obviously but this is not the team to play against thinking we are billy big balls. Im actually for a cautious approach today. Theyve been top all season for a reason. Basically I don't want us to play like we did at their gaff, which was play cautious, and give them too much respect. We have players that can hurt them too. Let's do nothing silly, but take the game to them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Wolves were very good at their place, but we just didn't turn up at all. It's got to be different today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 The devils telling me to put £20 on Wolves. If Villa win it'll be more than worth the loss. If they lose, the £30 will soften the blow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Bruce needs to do something that Wolves won't be expecting. Putting a good player with a point to prove in there could disrupt them.

Demitri_C Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Lansbury is the kind of player you need ina derby. Passionate nasty and the opposition fans hate. I hope.he plays some part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Cardiff are 2 up. That will leave them 7 points Infront of us. We really could do with 3 points today, even more so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
