Wolves at home Saturday 27th Dec at 3pm

[ronanm]

There are suggestions that there may be a clause in his contract for this summer

I thought that was in the Elliott deal

I thought that was in the Elliott deal

Not for us just in general

[peterbread]

Set pieces this season in the league

3 goals scored

12 goals conceded

The team has conceded 26 goals in total this season in the league.

Atmosphere is as flat as a pancake, painful watch against the bottom team.

The Brighton game was shocking, Kop was dead, all the chants started in the main stand.

I just watched the 1st half again & no wonder Chiesa scored so low in the ratings. I’ll estimate 75-80% of our attack went down the left side .Chiesa was making runs but being ignored time & time again. I thought he linked up ok with Frimpong when given a chance & with all the games we’ve got in January I hope we give him more starts.

[ric.williams]

Morgan Rodgers, get this lad signed he'll make all the difference to us.

not to sound all Nigel but lookin at the lineup we desperately need some HG players.

First team we must only have:
Bradley
Robertson (for now)
Frimpong
Jones
Rio (at a push)

who have i missed?

[swishtz]

Having gone to my first game Jan1, 1985, been a season ticket holder, been through the ups and downs, I've never felt so disinterested in the team as now, just not into whatever we are doing, Wirtz is my guilty pleasure though.

[Kenneth]

That's depressing.

I agree with the need for more homegrown players I have said for a while that the lack of them are influencing squad building. As non HG players are at capacity.

Our current HG players are: Gomez, Bradley, Jones, Frimpong, Woodman and then some over age youngsters such as Rhys Williams, who are unlikely to play, so realistically there are 3 unused HG spots.

Robertson doesn't count as HG as his development was in Scotland which is a different association. There is also mention that Ramsay doesn't count as HG as we loaned him to Scotland last season, whereif he stayed in England he would have gained HG status.

Rio, Nyoni, Bajcetic, McConnell, Danns etc, would all eventually count as HG but don't need to be registered in the squad until the season after they turn 21, so can be considered bonus players.

Were Elliott to come back he would be HG as would Guehi and Semenyo if we were to sign either of those.

I only watched the highlights, which of course can be very misleading, but I thought going forward we offered a lot more than previously. Wirtz and Frimpong in particular look like they are finding their own and actually both able to get through low blocks. Salah is going to have to work hard to get his place back if Frimpong stays fit. Yes, familiar weakness at the back, but we could have had 3-5 in this game, in which case we'd barely be thinking about conceding 1. I'm a little more optimistic now than many of you, I guess.

In fact:

- in the first half we were mainly static and passing the ball around in front of a low block, except for the couple of minutes where we scored the goals and the moments where we hit the woodwork; and

- in the second half Wolves were much more open and we had a few moments but generally we both had less control, less goal threat and less passing about, and Wolves threatened more.

Well, that never made the higlights...
