Match Thread Wolves v Everton, Sat 11/8/18 17:30

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Everton to win 4-2, with both of the goals we concede being easily preventable

We’ll be lucky to get a point. Although there are now a few players who know that they don’t have a future guaranteed spot in the team, so it’ll be interesting......

 

[Groucho]

Digne and Richarlison will start imo

 

[Rudolf Hucker]

Some on here clearly confusing Wolves with Real Madrid.


I predict an Away Win.

 

[Rudolf Hucker]

Digne and Richarlison will start imo

I’m sure of it.

Was a lot more confident of beating you lot until this last week. Think you guys have done some very good business this window. I'd be happy with a draw personally, but i'd say our side is probably a little more settled than yours currently so we could nick it with a bit of luck. Most of our new signings have been here for a few weeks now, and i'm not sure ( i'm hopeful anyway! ) if your late signings will feature against us. Dont think Traore or Dendoncker will feature much for us this game. You guys look pretty good attack wise to me, bit worried if we play Saiss at the back.

Good luck for the season ahead.

Usually best to play newly promoted teams after their initial burst of enthusiasm and optimism has died down a little, and the colder reality of fighting to stay in the league has hit home.

Promoted teams often start well, with every game a cup final - we had a very decent record against promoted teams last season but i'm not sure when we played them, I know it wasn't early on.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Highly doubt any of the deadline day signings will be involved tomorrow, so it'll probably be something like this:

Pickford

Coleman - Jagielka - Keane - Baines

Gueye - Schneiderlin

Sigurdsson
Walcott ---------------- Richarlison
Tosun​

Essentially the team that started against Valencia minus Stek. Think that's reasonable enough personally.

Shame but yes, that'll be the team I believe.

2-1 Wolves is my thinking at the moment. Going to take a bit for these new signings to become familiar with the squad.

Exaclty what I think, we will see energy and commitment but I feel we will fall short - kind of how the Valencia game went. I reckon after the international break we will see some noticeable improvements as some of the new signings are blooded in.

Kevin Costner 2 - 1 FC Sexy

I think if we were playing 3 or 4 weeks from now I'd fancy us but yes, you'll definitely be more settled and you've got the quality to tear apart our shocking defence. Could be a high-scoring game for sure.

 

[bitter-no-better]

Digne should start.

The good thing now is that those players in the spine of the team will be playing for their place and not guaranteed starters in the coming weeks.

Keane, Jags, Gueye, Schneiderlin and Siggy.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Shame but yes, that'll be the team I believe.

Honestly I don't think we should be in a rush to throw them all in. Get the whole squad together for a full week's worth of training next week in preparation for Southampton and take it from there.

I'm willing to treat this Wolves game as a 'free hit' if I'm being totally honest, we shouldn't be all that concerned with a negative result given the circumstances.

 

[Kinky Koeman]

Who did Bernard have a preseason with?

I’ve heard he’s omly played 5 games since January, if that’s true - he will be rusty - Ladslikely to be eased in over the first 2-3 months.

 

[jamieni]

If any of the defensive signings are available i’d Throw them in just for the craic! Literally can’t be any worse than having Jags and Keane in there.

Suspect Bernard maybe on the bench.
