go get reo coker now deano free transfer just what we need



Nigel Mediocre is not what we need. He made no impact at Bolton and couldn't get a game for Ipswich.



That says everything can't get a game under MM

players out to trim squad.....hammill
e.jonsson
zubar
elokobi
craddock
stearman
hunt
de vries
berra
forde
foley
ward
edwards

{Ed011's Note - So we having one left back and an injured Elokobi to no left backs? We can sign new players but you're trimming a lot of the first team.



Henry should be the first one out of the Club P.J.



Oops you forgot one, HENRY. UTW



Henry villa bound {Ed011's Note - Saunders unlike a lot of people will see how important Henry is to our team. He was Man of the Match for a reason yesterday but too many people don't see why.



Your right, he is better than what most say on this site!



The reason they want to see im off on here its because they think he is a troublemaker and disrupts the team



If he is that good, then why is he still at wolves



For christ sake he isnt a midfielder,
He is a fullback and by god you can tell he is.
put him back fullback or get rid



Forde only just turned 19 he is one for the future. He has found himself in a team low on confidence and would be unfair to judge him too harshly at moment. Very highly thought of by Republic youth set up, captained their very successful side.



Henry as seen off 3 managers now so for god sake don't let him see Saunders off as well
, Henry is poison



Henry to put it simply is just cr*p. Negative football, cannot pass it to feet, loses the ball all the time, lost count of how many times a potential attack breaks down because he has no creativity and passes it backwards. He was the worst player on the pitch on Friday, how on earth he got MOTM is beyond me.Get him out !



Spot on mate, he's garbage get rid. UTW



Yes get rid - because every time he is injured or suspended we turn into This total footballing unstoppable force. DAT

We desperately need a centre forward who can head the ball. We proved that we can score from crosses and corners when you look at how many goals Fletcher scored with his head. I know it's unlikely but Carlton Cole could do that job and he's good with his feet, it appears that he's been told that West Ham no longer see him in their plans.



Cole was. No good the first time why would we want him back



Cole would be a good shout. If my calculations are correct scores an average of one every 4 games. APPS 199 GOALS 47. Cant really say he was no good first time round, He was only 19 and didn't play that much. If we could get him for about £4m would be a good signing. As for it happening though, I do very much doubt it.

Carlton cole been told he can leave
West ham this could be worth a punt

Djwolf



He was no good when he was here on loan.

First time poster, long time reader.

What have we learnt from last night....

For one i'm pretty sure Deno won't be starting Zubar at rb again. Even if he hasn't played for while there was more than just a bit of rust their. I'm pretty sure that when pezcko starts at rw then foley will go back to rb.

The back four (except zubar) looked pretty solid. i was pleased to see foley go to rb and then the back four actually looked solid.

The players attitutudes looked like half of them had personality transplants before kick off. Why didn't they give that sort of effort when Stale was in charge? Dont get me wrong i don't think Stale was the answer but i think if they had put the effort in and got behind him then we would certainly be top half of the table.

US FANS!! Actually sang for once. To be honest it was the most atmosphere i've experience in the Billy Wright! One thing i must add is without the South Bank we would have no atmosphere. Fair play to the lads and lasses in there i know they get bad press sometimes off some of you but it really would be pin drop quiet without them...


Great Start to Deanos Reign.... Long may this positive attitude continue.

BillyWrightLad



Foley not good enough...far too slow. Has lost composure he used to show. Not convinced by any of our defenders. Johnson at a push but would need others to all have pace because his Achilles heal is his lack of pace. Why bring Doherty back from loan only to have Zubar, Foley and Stearman ahead of him. Who has a handle on our youth policy.



12 Jan 2013 20:09:55
the officials last night were awful that peno was blatent cheating right in front of the lino theyre making the game a laughing stock when you think we've spent our hard money to support our team then that peno DO YOU FEEL CHEATED i do



Spot on mate, paid good money and NOT up to the job. A player or Manager steps out of line they are fined or suspended nothing done about these nomarks time FA got a grip. P.J.



12 Jan 2013 19:33:29
Reo-coker has left ipswich today i think he is well worth a punt, on a free too.take it davies aint had his medical at the mol today oh well wishfull thinking. we need frimpong really dunno why were messing around. jc



One of the jounos today said Coker is leaving because he wants a longer term contract than he has been offered.



12 Jan 2013 19:23:23
Tune: Robbie williams - candy

hey ho there he goes
a little too fast, not a little too slow
he puts balls, in the back of the goal
hes bakary sako



12 Jan 2013 19:17:20
Just seen that reocoker has left Ipswich after refusing a new deal there. Is he worth a go on a short term deal? I think he would offer us a bit of creativity in a defensive role, prem proved player as well with experience



When reo-coker came on for the tractor boys against us thought he was different class sprayed the ball around very well definitely worth a punt give him a 12month contract cus it looks like were here next season

pedro



He would not sign for ipswich because they would only offer a 12 month contract, would you offer him a two year deal ? i think i would take a chance on him



12 Jan 2013 17:44:02
Dexter Blackstock wasnt in the forest squad today, rumours going around us and Leeds want him! Would he fix our goal scoring problems?

LeeWolf



It won't solve our goal scoring problems cos midfield doesnt supply decent balls



12 Jan 2013 17:23:28
think we should move ward back upfront and sell doyle. can bring in a solid lb then



Just get rid of ward.



He was no good as a forward that's why mm moved him to lb



You say that ward was rubbish as a striker, but upfront he has only played 12 games for us in which he has scored 6 goals, that is a good ratio so why do you all slate him, he wasn't even that bad at lb on Friday night



12 Jan 2013 17:07:24
Ikeme
Zubar Johnson Davis? ??
doumbia frimpong?
Pesko. Ohara. Sako
Siggi
Any thoughts

I went last night and thought that it wasn't all hoof football, when we were passing it round the back if we were not getting anywhere then we were hitting the channels to try and get up the pitch. When we played it on the floor I think the football was very good obviously we lacked a little composure in the middle and in front of goal but we created more than they did and were unlucky not to beat in my opinion the best squad for out and out quality in the championship. I thought that that game was a massive improvement from the rubbish foot all under solbakken at least we went at the opposition and we got inside the fullbacks more and attacked there box. Think we need a target man who we can target from wide positions as well as playing foley at RBI with peszko in front of him, I stop breathing whenever zubar has the ball, massive liability.



12 Jan 2013 20:31:17
the effort was good the quality of football was pretty dire...inability to retain possession, poor passing etv... this won't get us or any team promoted.
To be honest if we hadnt had Sako then JOH later we would look really ordinary.

Foley was not at the races, Davis and Henry ran around a lot but not at all creative and Ward just is not a solid left back...don't know, I hope DS can do something but I have to say SS with more time may have been better in the long run



12 Jan 2013 16:41:25
19 year old defender james husband not in doncaster line-up today....could be?



I don't know this guy but I will be surprised if he is any better than Docherty who hopefully may be given a chance under DS. As a sub against Liverpool at Anfield awhile back he looked a competent fullback.



12 Jan 2013 15:59:22
Thought Sako looked immense last night, his talent is wasted without someone like a Fletcher in the middle though. Sako really does some great work, gets the ball straight down to feet and plays it, I'd like to see him go a bit more directly toward goal and be a bit more selfish sometimes.

With O'Hara coming back to fitness and Pesko back in the side for Foley hopefully things are looking a little rosier.

I feel the real weak links now are Henry and Ward, we look a better attacking force with Zubar to me and with Pesko in front of him that is a powerful right side.

As for all the long ball comments? To me there was much less long ball played last night than in the last several Solbakken games when every time it's just a big punt up the park from Ikeme.



Sako was immense?
confused there abit, was it sako who couldnt get the ball off the ground for how many corners and free kicks was it now.

Did you watch another match or something cos i'll watch your match in future



Immense but for a few odd dead ball kicks then, technically he's in another world to the rest of them, in my match anyway.



Could it be variations at corners instead of all the same. P.J.



I reckon Sako would do a great job if he played in the center and running at defence, well a better job than what doyle is doing



12 Jan 2013 15:34:17
Why oh why did we not move for Chris Woods. Can't stop scoring for Leicester. Big strong centre forward just what we need to convert crosses from Sako. Prime example of our inability to convert what Sako provides was the corner last night headed off line by Danny Murphy, smallest player on pitch. Any names that would fit the bill.....Charlie Austin is is only name that springs to my mind.



12 Jan 2013 13:42:13
I think Doyle should play in midfielder not upfront i think all these years he has played out of position. Only my opinion but he has a good engine but is not a natural goalscorer much better when he plays deeper. After last night's performance I would get rid of Henry I think he holds back them team and the play when we have a good opportunity. So my midfield would be ohara Doyle peszko and sako. Up front SEB and a proper striker. Defence Johnson batth and a new lb and rb because we don't have anyone worthyof those positions.



So all the managers he's played for and your the bright spark who thinks he should play in midfield.

TDW



For all those managers he has played for how many goals.... Exactly



12 Jan 2013 12:50:32
Henry MOFM,, what a joke ...can someone tell who give the ball that lead to the dodgy penalty.

Wasn't it Henry again



Reckon Matt Murray and pundit mates were on a free night out.
5 minutes of added time - the game is up for grabs - then along comes back pass Henry. Thought captains led by example anyway hope they all had a good night out !



12 Jan 2013 12:41:21
Good game last night the atmosphere was great us fans were singing the players were fighting for the ball all in all everything that has been missin from the mol.also great to see Deano have the balls to give Cassidy a chance the lad made some superb runs o and off the ball and to top it off we had some shots at goal yaaaa.looks positive I for one did have doubts about Saunders but if he can get them playin with passion again then that's great nice to go to a match and find it entertaining



12 Jan 2013 11:54:37
Very happy with last nights match they showed more fight and determination thought kh struggled too many wayward passes would love to see ds bring in a forward like iwelumo would fit in well.frimpong in to replace kh me thinks



Yep way would passes from the same suspects who have been doing it for years now,, be glad when they're gone for good



12 Jan 2013 11:26:46
Doesn't matter if Davies plays today Martin Olson played last night and he's leaving!



12 Jan 2013 11:09:59
Roger Johnson has come on leaps and bounds this season he really does seem commited to the club.



Should be Captain. P.J.



I was at the game last night and agree about roger johnson taking over as captain.
Star man for wolves was SAKO without a doubt -- how the hell Henry got MOTM is beyond me, back pass henry- not creative at all and you could see the difference when Ohara came on he was effective straight away.



But Henry is not an attacking midfielder he is a defensive one. Thought he played we and got stuck in.



Henry was bullied by kazim Richards and he played average



Henry shouldn't be captain, why can't they see it



Some people are blind on here, whilst I agree Karl wasn't MOTM he is being blamed for the goal, for not being creative enough and no doubt the long wait for a pie at half time is his fault too. He is suffering in this side due to the lack of creativity around him. Let him do what he is good at breaking up play giving the ball to a creative player ( when we have one fit) he is a local lad that cares - like most of us



Breaking up play... How ?
Yes he makes tackles but isnt that what footballers suppose to do
If Henry was so good at his job why have we been letting so many goals in and why do most teams have more shoots on goal than us.
It's because our great midfield captain doesnt do his job right . i say midfield but really he isn't midfielder is he..

Square pegs and round holes comes to mind



Breaking up play how. Yes he make tackles- answered your own question.

Aren't footballers supposed to do that? Well yes but how many tackles do the rest of the team make. Wolves fans always have a scapegoat.. Could probably name one every season back to Geoff "Zico" Palmer.



Check the stats. KH does't make many tackels.. he is one of the worst players i've seen in an old gold shirt.. get rid.. 2006



All im saying is we could get a player like henry easy and who can shoot as well,,, midfielders need to chip in with goals and Henry as not scored since palace cup match last season and TBH i can't ever see him scoring



The palace cup game last season? More like 4 seasons ago.



Ur probably right with 4 seasons ago lol..

Utter disgrace he as not scored or even looks like scoring, the man is far too negative to be in a attacking team



12 Jan 2013 10:54:41
palocios [think that's how its spelt] from stoke would be a good move if the frimpong thing doesnt cum off and alls guidetti would be a brilliant signing if we could get him



12 Jan 2013 10:51:03
why is it takin wolves so long to be moving in for any players ? am reading a lot about other teams making early moves !! before we know it, it will be to late and then it will be league 1 here we cum!! come wolves pull ya finger out and get some top players in and get this club where they should b



Under the radar I expect - until it's a done deal. Lost a few by shouting it from the rooftops.



12 Jan 2013 09:53:21
Just what was so bad about Saunders approach last night.. Yes were more direct but possession stats were as good as under Solbakken.. With a little work and one or two new faces we can build on this.. Pez will start moving forward wide right, JOH will feature most probably alongside Henry though have to say thought Davis played well for the most part last night, we will sign a right back (hopefully a left back too as Ward was poor again last night) a further centre back will enter the fray to add competition to Johnson and Berra (who in fairness did OK last night and with Prem clubs interested in him must have something about him which may be worth holding on to) this looking like Davies if rumour mill is to be believed and a forward unfortunately for Cassidy as good as he looked in glimpses I cannot see him starting as a front two with Doyle to often until he has a bit more presence about but definatly one for the future and one who can impact games from the bench. Any news on Sigi's absence? Was hoping along with Pez and Sako that he would buy into Saunders philosophy (thought he would have started if fit last night in place of Cassidy), the others Pizza boy, Boukari and Doumbia I feel will all leave. Saunders will scrap the play-offs you mark my words though think to give us the best chance of staying up in the Prem we need the remainder of this season and next too. COYW believe in Deano - 3 or 4 will hit the net against Wednesday next week and we will all be Deanos the man etc



12 Jan 2013 09:46:59
Few points from last nights game.

Why was Henry Man of the Match?! I am in the camp he should be dropped, as he offers nothing going forward nor for the backs. My man of the match would have been Johnson or Ikeme.

I thought we played well in parts, but poor in others.
The effort seemed to be there. The game summed up where we are at the moment, which is a team that's lacking a style of play.

What we all need is to stop moaning, we are going through a tough time.

Out of Darkness Cometh Light {Ed011's Note - I thought Sako could've been man of the match too, that one dizzying run he had was sensational. Him, O'Hara and Peszko (after Peszko and O'Hara are back up to full fitness) look like they'll be our creative outlets. We definitely need a new striker though. Ebanks does score some goals and Doyle does work so hard every game but they just don't play well together.



More passion but we desperately need new faces i t still made me nervous as we stand off the opposition too much and the need for full backs who can attack and get back is obvious if were going to play the high ball a new target man is needed their centre backs were really never troubled in the air but the spirit was their a decent start for deano



12 Jan 2013 07:06:27
The moaners on here make me laff, DS will no wat players need to go and the 1s he wants to keep, we need to accept that ye this season has bin rubbish and we shouldn't be we're we are at now but if we make the playoffs then that's a bonus if not we have another year dean Saunders will have another transfer window to bring his own players then see we're we go from there



12 Jan 2013 03:47:17
I thought the passing was lethal. Had SS been managing this game is would have bet on a 3-0 loss any day as I'm sure many of you would have. Under SS we would have broken down after the first goal, rolled over and let them score another couple. DS has just come in to clear up SS, TC's mess, a draw at home to a good team like Blackburn and their recent form is a great result especially when considering their goal was a lucky penalty. On another day Wolves would have won 1-0, bad luck. DS is the man to keep us up.



12 Jan 2013 03:43:36
Why is everyone slating Ward? Some of his passing and link up play with Sako was class, a good bond is forming. Ward knows where the goal is having been a striker before. He stays in my opinion and I this DS will get the most out of him. I don't recall him making a defensive error either, perhaps he could close down quicker? But other than that I feel he is suited to his job and DS will not look for a replacement.



12 Jan 2013 02:56:26
i would just like to say well done to roger johnson after last seasons debarcal. at least he"s had the bottle to stick it out here unlike the 3 money grabbing rats who left the sinking ship.



12 Jan 2013 00:42:43
Doyle was rubbish again tonight! I don't know what people see in him, headless chicken on steroids!!
