Yeah our defence has not been good enough, but our attack was unusually bad, which has not been the norm this season.

We’ll have none of that level headed thinking today right now it’s about knee jerking and finger pointing.
Oh well , always next season or the season after or the season after. It’s always next season with this fucking club!!!
Used to take the piss out of Liverpool for it not anymore. It seems we are the always next year club meme now
Because Richie is world class
"All we want is to see the team play attacking football"
That's obviously not true
That's obviously not true
Don't forget patience as well, that beauty has been in play since the club was formed.
Approaching 20 yrs with one minor trophy to show its shit. Almost 40 years since we won a major one
Attractive, attacking football.
What we are seeing is possession based football, not attacking. There's not attacking as evidence by out shooting metrics. We get the the penalty area and pass it around a bit.
How about the time he tried a crossfield pass and it sailed over our player for a throw? He did some of his defensive duties well but I'd expect that from a PL defender. Otherwise nothing going forward. Certainly nothing like Porro gives us.
I thought we'd plumbed the depths with Aurier but Emerson is not far off.
I'm certainly not pretending that today's loss was down to him. Only VdV and Vicario emerged with credit
I know, still the wait goes on, this so called Ange ball isn't impressive, just allows teams to get through us with ease.
Still it doesn't matter who, is in control, the performance and results stay the same.
From ‘Tottenham till I die’
“Whilst that result was disappointing, some of the backlash that's followed is ridiculous.
Fans trying to say it was worse than Conte ball, fans saying we've gone backwards, some even saying we won't get Europe which would mean throwing away a 11pt lead on 7th place in order to get no Europe at all.
Fans trying to say we've been found out, even fans saying Ange has his head on the Liverpool job. Other fans saying he looks disinterested, just because he's stood there with his arms crossed, That's Ange, he always does that, nothing to see there stop looking to invent new agendas.
Yes we lost, yes we're disappointed, in fact I was very angry at the final whistle, but we have not been found out, Ange has not lost interest and we will recover. Stop blowing it out of all proportion.
We've made our job harder but not impossible. We've got 2 weeks to prepare for Palace and 2 weeks for everyone to recharge and come back stronger..
Let's stop all this exaggerating about Wolves outplaying and dominating us, We had 79% possession and we created more chances. They just took their chances better on the day. Porro and Udogie instead of Emerson and Davies would have been far better to watch.”

Greedy and self absorbed
Yes that was one of the two badly misplaced passes I referred to. Porro also misplaces passes. Udogie has done it several times directly to the opposition costing us goals and points.
Emerson is second choice. blaming him for the poor performance of our first 11 is ridiculous. He was no worse than anyone today and better than a hell of a lot of them. That's my point.
I’ll go all out and say we finish above Villa this season and next
Emerson did alright. But alright in Ange system will mean slow build up. Anyone who's defending Emerson should rewatch the game and see how easily dispossessed he was, how slow he was in passing, how predictable he was in his passes (he probably only passed to Kulu, Romero and Biss) he couldn't even dare to cross ffs given all the time and space that Wolves players have no interest in closing him down anymore in the 2nd half.
At one point we had a fast break, and that was only because Romero zippy pass found Johnson. If that pass was made by Emerson, he would have taken a few more touches to jog forward and make a slow pass instead.
The difference between him and Porro is immense. I wouldn't have thought that was the case, but perhaps Porro has grown so much that Emerson, being no fault of his own and doing things alright without much mistakes, is becoming the weakest link in Ange set up. Which is why I no longer as pissed with him as when he was playing Conte ball, but more sorry for him that the game has evolved past him.
He has to be upgraded and sold next season.
Another 10-15 games and the fans will start to turn on Ange while still ignoring the cancer at the heart of the club.
The cycle is predictable, we've all seen it before.
I'm seeing people making excuses about fatigue and needing a break?? Why? We have played 5-10 less games than the sides around us, and we can't even play a game a week without looking lethargic apparently.
All of them need a boot up the arse.
Stop all the laughing and joking, all the high fiving and filming each other on your phones that I keep seeing on the official training vids and start getting fucking serious.
Today was not acceptable. Zero points from Wolves is not acceptable.
Stop making excuses for them, they have one game to play a week and cant even manage that.
