Wolves banter 4

04 Jan 2026 08:00:22
Just saw a clip of your manager celebrating your first win like he has won the league you lot must be embarrassed 😂😂😂😂

04 Jan 2026 09:08:36
Not as embarrassed as you having to troll other teams to get a kick

04 Jan 2026 09:30:39
WHU WERE CRAP AND ARE GOING DOWN

{Ed001's Note - he is a Villa fan not Hammers.}

Oh dear Superjack missed you sweetheart, worry about your own team not ours as the song goes in your head, in your head.

05 Jan 2026 00:23:29
Super Jack troll you conceded against them mate

{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Matchday 19 - Quick Round Up

03 Jan 2026 20:58:43
Thoroughly enjoyed watching today's game. The result obviously contributed to that, but I felt that regardless of the result, we looked like a completely different team. Quick passes, good movement, players that others and myself have previously criticised putting on a show.I always felt like RE needed some time to find out his better lineup, starters etc. I do feel like many on here were calling for his head far too early. VP had been with us for ages when he said he still didn't know what his best first 11 was! Yes, it took a while for RE to get off the mark, but who can realistically expect a manager to go into a new team and get it correct from day one?! Yes it's what they are paid for but at the end of the day they are only human.

We have tripled out points tally in the last 2 games, yes it may be too little too late, but I do feel like RE finally has the team playing like a pack again. I honestly feel like if they play with the same desire, hunger and drive as they did today, and against United, then maybe, just maybe, a miracle could happen.Even more likely so if this transfer window is a successful and sensible one, but given Fosuns history that remains to be seen! Surely now is the time to keep hold of the players who are performing, regardless of how much money we could sell them for, and improve on the squad with additions!?! Either way, I feel almost certain that the second half of this season will be very exciting. Great performance today Wolves, keep it up please!

03 Jan 2026 22:33:20
The whole team played well. But there were one or two lapses in concentration which better teams would have punished.

Rob has clearly identified that we need to pass faster and further up the field. I have been Hwangs biggest critic and today, he proved that he could play rather than run around like a headless chicken. But, when Bellegarde and Rodrigo are available, he should be nowhere near the 1st team.

A few observations I made during the game were that in Central Defence, Santi, Yerson and Krejci did well. Add Agbadou to the mix and another CB, we look well stocked. Toti should now be surplus to requirements.

Andre showed that he is not as dynamic as Joao. If we had to sell one of them, the it should be Andre.

The team needs to be built around the core of Joao, Mane and Tolu. Tolu won everything in the air today and works well with Mane. If we can get good money for JSL, we need to sell and replace him with a faster striker who can stretch defences.

04 Jan 2026 09:22:15
Good - the Tolu case is an odd one isn't it.
Every time he plays - even only in cameos at the end of a game - he has looked good and his goal scoring record is fine - given how few minutes he has played.
So why has he played so little especially given how poor JSL has been?

04 Jan 2026 11:08:50
Possibly some just weren't up to speed fitness wise, or the manager hadn't seen enough in training to figure out where to play them effectively Arias started and played the full 90 yesterday as well. I suspect RE has had to go back to basics and use his initial games as almost pre season. Let's face it our pre season was crap with players sold and late signings. I doubt much team cohesion was built.

No cause for excitement, but yes performance has steadily improved and points now trebled in two games.

05 Jan 2026 06:45:24
Arddunby 1 - Not all players show their best in training but do so on the pitch but it seems coaches are reluctant to take that chance.


Tolu has been showing his willingness to get involved in the cameos and the news that he wasn't fit has been the excuse used but now he's showing what the side has been missing, something which Larsen is still not doing!

05 Jan 2026 13:20:26
OAP wulfunian, it's a tough call isn't it. I suppose it depends on the training session and it's objectives, in all walks of life some people come good in the real world, but if you've got a goalkeeper for example making basic mistakes day in day out, how many managers would select him?

03 Jan 2026 19:38:21
Didn’t see Nuno shake hands with RE at end of game today unless I missed something?

03 Jan 2026 20:10:50
No Nuno went straight down the tunnel.

03 Jan 2026 20:13:05
He didn't Oxley, he went straight down the tunnel.

03 Jan 2026 18:30:58
Fantastic win today and depending on the 4 above us 4 wins could actually get us out of relegation zone too, Mane what a player those who said he wasn't ready how's that humble pie?
Arias looks to finally found his position and Hwang was looking so much better a assist and a goal for the lad, even Larsen was trying when he came on.


The lads have got to keep this going and just maybe we can pull off our own great escape.

03 Jan 2026 18:47:08
Mane, if your good enough your old enough, and he is proving that, need to protect him though and not burn him out , well done the lads today. That might be the end for Nuno at west ham.

03 Jan 2026 19:33:43
After listening to burrows Thommo naylor, with the great escape theme still in me ears I've just watched the highlights, wow, no doubt WH were awful but we were moving with haste, working the opposition with runs. Mane opened them up for Hwangs ball into Arias, Hwang was definitely playing for the position today and after all the moaning about him, I have to give him credit today.
Mane simply looked the biz, abit tired later on but still caused mayhem.
Hugo I thought was close to mom, but all of them put in a collective performance.
But my mom actually goes to the WH keeper he brought off some incredible saves, perhaps stopping tolu with his foot and ultimately saving his team from a 6/7 goal drubbing.

Now bring on Everton, we'll need the same effort and abit, dunno about great escape but saving face and restoring pride is possible.

03 Jan 2026 19:42:11
And anyone wanting Nuno back need to look at how he is doing at WHU, love the bloke but I think he is damaged now and needs to rebuild his career away from the Premier league.

04 Jan 2026 09:34:25
Rated - it would be the greatest of great escapes but given how truly awful WHU, Burnley and NF look how many points will actually be needed?
People have been quoting mid 30s - which is probably beyond Wolves - but low 30s or even high 20s might be enough?
Mad I know as it requires all 3 of the other sides to pick up virtually nothing, (as Wolves did in the first half), and obviously they have to play each other.
If only Spurs and Brighton had been converted into wins as they should have been it might have been possible for Wolves to get another 20 + points from the last 18 games and made it interesting.


Now a few against the heads are required - wins against sides who are really quite good - such as Newcastle and Chelsea at home in the next few weeks?
We will know shortly - a defeat at Everton and at home to Newcastle might end all hope - but two wins and I for one will be starting to hope!

03 Jan 2026 17:44:05
I thought hype around Mane was potty, having seen him today he is going to be a really good player. Well done lads you played with passion

03 Jan 2026 21:05:07
Mane.started the move for our first goal.won the penalty for our 2nd.and scored our 3rd.hell of a player.just need a bit of luck.bit of confidence.and who knows.be the greatest escape ever🤔

03 Jan 2026 17:37:22
After this win which was brilliant Wolves have got to back RE in the transfer market. Fuson have to give it a shot WH and Forest look worse than us they draw on Tuesday Wolves beat Everton the greatest escape ever is on. I know people will say i'm deluded but you have to gave hope with additioninal players you never know.

03 Jan 2026 23:13:11
They definitely have to back him! My worry is that after the last 3 performances and his praise on Match Of The Day tonight, they will try and cash in on Mane, as he is one hell of a player and will no doubt be wanted by many clubs, but in the present, he is exactly what we need, for me, the most exciting player I've seen at Wolves since Neves, including Cunha!

03 Jan 2026 17:20:45
Brilliant win well done to Rob and all the players

03 Jan 2026 17:36:54
Unbeaten in 2026 great for all the fans roll on Everton the great escape could be on!

03 Jan 2026 17:13:21
A certain theme tune from a Great War movie keeps going through my mind.

Any ideas?

03 Jan 2026 17:27:08
Mabel I love you Mabel, how's that? I can't whistle.

03 Jan 2026 17:28:46
The Great escape comes to mind if this happens it will be bigger than Jesus been reborn. Nothing against anyone who is religous so don't take offence just a quote thank you.

03 Jan 2026 17:35:10
It’s very low on volume at minute, but I can hear it Nandi!

03 Jan 2026 17:36:22
Not ‘The Great Escape’ by any chance?
