We can get top 4/5 fairly comfortably - as long as we bring in a couple of players in the first week or two of January. With a few new faces and the injured players coming back I think we'll really build up some momentum again in the second half of the season.
Maybe. I think City, Arsenal and Liverpool are strong favourites for top 4. United and Chelsea are still in transition, but Villa are looking really good.

Poor performance today, no control at any point in the game.

Lo Celso should have started, he doesn't panic in possession.

Dier kept screwing up the pass down the line to Kulusevski in the second half.

Gil won't do anything in this league if the ref doesn't protect him.

Son was unable to hold up the ball and play simple lay offs in key moments.

Davies played well though and should start the game with a different centre back.

The ref was awful, he allowed them to get away with so much, almost as if the officials know Wolves have been fucked over a lot this season and are now giving them a kind whistle.
That pass is Dier's speciality.

Clip it down the line but always undersell to Deki or whoever id there.

Imagine being the winger in that scenario you'd get seriously peeved off with it

Porro - Phillips - Davies - Udogie - Bentancur - Sarr - Lo Celso - Johnson - Son - Kulusevski for next and it'll be completly different show.

See I can't blame the players. They are being asked to do things they just aren't capable of doing. Should never have started PEH and should have been braver with the team selection at the back. We couldn't move the ball out from the back because the players brought in just aren't able to do it. It kept us under pressure just like we saw week in week out under Conte.
Play Phillips and play all 3 of Bentancur, Sarr and Bissouma.

That enhances the ability to play through the middle as both Bissouma and Bentancur can do it well and can alternate

If anyone deserves blame it's Levy for leaving us with such a paper thin squad; Always just an injury away from fielding Davies/PEH/Dier.

They are all limited players and we knew that going into the season.
Not sure it's Levys fault. Bloated squad and clearly a second tier of quality within the squad is affecting us. Levy holds the purse strings but not the identification of players and the selling of deadwood.

Ange has to change the culture of the club and the patterns of play firmly ingrained after years of negative football

It’s no coincidence that he has had more success with the young new players

We lost today because we weren’t fully committed to being brave in the final third. Dier and Davies did OK, certainly enough if we had managed more than two shots on target

Ange knows he cannot compromise for one single game and really change the mentality, even if it means days like today

Bissouma is suspended for the next game so PEH is going to play next game.

The problem some of our fans is that expectations have been shifted unrealistically due to our start.

We werent the best team in the league and were always going to hit a sticky patch as soon as players were out.

It has always been about building a foundation to launch from

Look a
That last 15mins was so typical of the last few years. I’m so angry. Giving up possession for no reason, getting caught out. If I wasn’t so angry I’d laugh. Cos it was pathetic

Look at Ange's interview with Rio this week.

We are still switching off at close to halftime or fulltime in his opinion, and today was a perfect example of that. Ange will not be pleased with the manner which we lost let alone a loss.

Very true, going through a tough time at the moment so I guess I put to much stock in Tottenham for my release or happiness or hope

and my son isn’t bothered about us winning, he loves singing the songs and watching us play, it’s just harder to keep them interested in something that his friends take the piss out of, Atleast it builds character I guess

my dad always says to me
That’s he’s sorry he made me support spurs cos it brings me so much disspointed hahah
Yeah your son gets to learn to like something independent of what his peer group thinks. Independent thinking is important in this age.
Dont know if your dad is serious but if he is then he's wrong. He taught you to like something. That's good enough in itself. It's easy to manage disappointment it's much harder to learn to love.
