Between 1-0 and 1-3 we had ZERO shots. I'm sorry, but that's utterly inexcusable from both the team and the management. That wouldn't be acceptable against City or Barca. Let alone fucking Wolves at home. No possible excuse. Especially when you could see it coming and we failed to make a proper chance all match.

At the game, saw it coming all half. Shocking. Wolves had the desire, we honestly had zero urgency or creativity. After 11 goals in two games, that doesn't just happen.

Really hope Arsenal get something this evening but that result will galvanize Anfield. They'll win, go 9 points clear.

Bottled it.

Poch got a lesson from Espirito Santo today.

We completely lost control of the game in the second half.

The man we needed to come on was Dier.

Awful awful defeat..and absolutely deserved. Wolves outclassed us.

Eriksen was absolutely terrible by the way...his head's gone.

This club will never, ever, win anything.
Maybe you can add an appendix? ?

We made Wolves look like Barcelona. It was us, not them. The boys thought that they would stroll it home at 1-0. Very arrogant. And we got slapped for it. Deserved and hopefully it's a learning experience.
I agree to a degree, but I also think Wolves were spot on with there tactics. They sat batck and swarmed the box which we always struggle with and just hit us on the brake. It might not have worked out to such a degree earlier in the season, but considering how run down our players looked Wolves were going to brake through at some point. Poch got out done again in my opinion.

I hate the bottled it phrase but we really do crumble when the pressure is on...the mentality seems to be ingrained in the club and its probably the reason why we only have 2 titles in our history.

Disappointing today but we are at the halfway stage, plenty more twists and turns to come in the league, that's why we love this game.

We just can't play against a 343. Nearly every time we do with a back four we get outplayed. I don't know why we don't change it because the few times we've matched teams we've been better. It's a real blind spot for Poch.

Who at the club was talking about the title? Thought Poch down played it tbh - some of you are listening/reading far too much bollocks.

Poch is the spokesman for the club, nobody knows what the players are thinking inside, this result should hone in on them that they still have a way to go whatever aspirations they had deep down

But why did Ali go off, didn't seem to be struggling. That was the start of them controlling the game.

Looked tired to me, but we had no adequate replacement. Lamela would have been a good option but was also injured. Squad depth and injuries have cost us today...

Wolves were good, well organised, defended very well, and kept the ball well when they got it.

Shit performances happen to all teams. Calm the fuck down, drink beer, walk the dog, shake hands with your todge...whatever gets you through the darkness. Realistically a top four finish would be a decent season. Sometimes the nappy lands shit side down.

I’m off to drink beer with a fiddling dog

Their sub made the difference!
Guess Mopo looking after Alli (returning from injury) and expected the players to perform and win

Desperately need some options in CM. Completely overrun by Wolves in midfield and we have no option to bring anyone on and regain possession.

Dreadful second half. Winks, SIssoko, Trippier, Eriksen and Alli were all passengers in that second half. Trippier is a deadset fraud at RB. Would prefer to see Walker-Peters/Aurier used going forward.

We have had quite a few poor games this season against teams like Wolves and we weren’t punished. Today we were.

Hope liverpool tonk Arsenal now, people can go back to not dreaming because it hurts too much and those who create the narratives can go back to not talking about us and a title challenge.
