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

[N.S.N.O.]

The game was in total control until Jags showed why he doesn't belong at this level anymore... Now its gonna cost us 3 points...

I can't see him starting again.

He wouldn't be playing here if Zouma or Mina were fit.

He's well past it.

Or even Holgate!

Last man? The Wolves guy wasn’t even in control of the ball. It’s not like he was clear through and cut down.

WTF he’s clean through

At half time, the top teams would have been all over the referee.

Our lot didn't even glance in his direction.

We lack that in the team. Back in the day, Ratcliffe, Reid, Gray would all have been in his ear after that.

 

[tsubaki]

Not 2 footed at all. But over the ball, studs up, nailed his planted foot so dangerous, and last man.

Can’t really winge about it.

... and it was all his fault. I don't want to be harsh, and appreciate everything he has done down the years, but that really should be that for him now.

Stupid tackle by an aging past it defender

 

[efcjames]

May as well ban slide tackles altogether.

@Adam-GOTTV on the juice. Just tweeted that Pickford couldn't have done better on the FK. He literally took a step towards his wall.

He’s right though

Worst thing about modern football is both teams saying the ref is crap every game. Proper stupid.

Jags put himself in that position with a rubbish decision and the ref has to make a call, I thought myself if it’s a foul it’s a red.

Pickford has to save at his side, we have played rubbish despite a scrambled goal. The world is not against us all the time , stop acting like kopites

Was a bang on red, cant understand why anyone says otherwise

 

[jtp0000]

Why would you take our fastest player off whilst playing with 10 men? Are you mad?

Maybe so! Haha.

Thought Gylfi impacted the first 42 mins more than Walcott. And thought you could bring DCL in for some pace.

 

[TheBlueGibbon]

So he will only miss 1 game

He'll miss none. We'll appeal it and probably win. Otherwise the FA are implying you can't put in a slide tackle

 

[toffeejack]

I honestly can’t see how anybody doesn’t think that’s a red, last man, goal scoring opportunity, at very best he nicks the ball at the same time he hits the ankle, studs up. It’s a red every day of the week and twice on Sundays

How was it a goalscoring opportunity? The wolves player didn't even touch the ball. Even if he did he would have probably punted it into touch, he was in no control of the ball whatsoever. So I can't agree he was through on goal or whatever.

Don't think the ref would have changed his mind anyway mate.

True but it puts pressure on referee, playing the moment over and over again in his mind during match. You have to act more agressive if you want more respect imo

 

[USABlue]

The problem is he's also put his studs in the other fellas shin though, and had no control over the tackle.

Getting the ball is irrelevant.

No where near his shin lol he got his ankle after he got the ball. So dramatic.

Looks like we're going to have to rely on Oumar to get us out of this. What else is new?

Gotta love the man though, he comes on the mood changes instantly.
