When was the last time Traore scored, or even got an assist, in the PL? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASM Traore at the moment is looking like gabby, wolves fans can throw all sorts of shite out about teams having to play deep to counter him and doubling up on him and being terrified of his pace... But he's doing **** all with it, I genuinely think he's the 3rd best winger at Wolves, I'd take neto and podence over him (neto is better than ASM) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Neto is probably Wolves' best player and the one probably most likely to attract bids from bigger clubs, went under the radar a little last season but more people starting to notice him now, only twenty as well.

kurtsimonw Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Yes, Neto is class. Definitely the Wolves player I would take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted March 2, 2021 Moderator Share Posted March 2, 2021 That injury blow is made doubly worse by the fact they're about to go on an easy run of fixtures on paper. Exactly the kind of run they would have picked up points from if they'd had ASM and Almiron available. They may still pick up the odd point but 3 of their next 5 games are against sides in and around them (WBA, Brighton, Burnley), and if they lose those games they will be in massive danger We are one of the other 2 fixtures. Shame if we stuck the knife in. Let me check Smith's record against Bruce ... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A player returning from a long spell out under Steve Bruce and breaking down 2 weeks later. Shocking stuff. Absolute SHOCKING!!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robby b Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 It was clear from the MOTD highlights they actually played very well against Wolves, attacking football, swift build-ups, and were unlucky not to win. Well, now it's nervy times for them with their three best forwards suddenly all out till April but I still have a feeling they'll stay up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 What on Earth is their midfield and forward line for the next game? I guess they've got Carroll, Joelinton and Gayle who can play up top. So who is bringing the ball forward from midfield? Matt Ritchie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think Fulham will stay up. They look so much better than the team we faced at the start of the season and they aren't conceding many goals, unlike West Brom.

I watched the whole game (I know, I was bored) and it was really only the first 20-25 minutes that they were on top, and ASM was running riot. Wolves got their foothold in the game at the end of the first half and never let up. As is typical of Bruce teams, they just can't keep it up for 90 minutes, probably because I imagine they don't really practice patterns of play on the training pitch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendrick and Shelvey are still fit I think, and the Longstaff pair. They have quite a big squad to be fair but are just so poorly managed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much of a bench, and a bit of a Championship team feel, but they've got to find a way to make it work somehow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can set a team up but then hopes for the best. Tricky few weeks for them I feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
