Wolves banter 7

31 Dec 2025 16:28:38
Now don't be calling the men in white coats for me yet but next month get in a couple of pacey players and a creative midfielder, a striker and I think we're going to go on a good run.


Sell Larsen and Andre i'm going to say keep Arias if he wants to stay as we may have finally found his position he did very well last night.

31 Dec 2025 17:37:41
I don’t necessarily disagree rko but I think good run or not the damage is already fatal, realistically we would have to win at least 13 games to be sure to stay up, and 12 to be in with a chance and I just can’t see it personally. Would love it my heart says yes but my head says no chance

31 Dec 2025 18:01:52
Good run will build confidence in the players that stay with us when we go down De wolf mate which will hopefully help us get of to a great start.

31 Dec 2025 18:30:58
11 may be just enough but yes13 should guarantee it.

31 Dec 2025 22:50:52
Good run yes but staying up is unrealistic.
If we get 20 points I’d be pleasantly surprised.

01 Jan 2026 13:22:31
If Wolves can get a run of 3 or 4 wins in a row, they will get back into the fight.
I'm not saying it is going to happen but it doesn't take a lot at the bottom of the table to gain ground.

Most of these comments are delusions of grandeur

01 Jan 2026 16:20:58
Not delusions of grandeur just incurable enthusiasm, after 50 years of support we've seen it before.

31 Dec 2025 16:11:06
It's no surprise to me that our best 4 performances under Edwards have all been in our 4 away matches at Villa, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manure. Only 1pt but deserved at least 5 in my view.

Why can't we perform at home in the same way? This is due to the toxic atmosphere created by a large section of our fanbase. A fanbase who boo at every opportunity, be it slow play (keeping the ball) or a loose pass. The latter always followed by booing if we are losing. This is not a new thing at Molineux unfortunately. I no longer enjoy our home matches, not because of the winless run but because of our fanbase. Away matches, such as last night are much more enjoyable.a fanbase that supports and encourages each and every time.

I doubt if our team look forward to playing at home. I wouldn't.

It's time to get behind our players and Edwards. Fosun are going nowhere. It's not the fault of the players or Edwards that we carry such little quality up front. It's not Edwards fault thar JSL downed tools back in August.

The players, with the exception of JSL, have shown fight and the right attitude at all 4 away games such that numerous comments on here that the players do not care or are not good enough even for the championship are laughable.

We are a much better unit under Edwards and if we only had a firing front 3 we would not be in this mess. That is 100% on Fosun and Vitor.not Edwards, not the squad.

Get behind your team at Molineux, if you attend, if not please stay at home.

31 Dec 2025 16:24:45
I think after the Liverpool and Man UTD matches the players have earned our support now it's upto them to do this at home too.

31 Dec 2025 17:02:33
Front 2 has to be Tolu and Mane. If JSL does play some part, then he has to play alongside Tolu with Mane behind them.

31 Dec 2025 17:42:23
What a load of guff, they are very highly paid professionals who are happy to take the tens of thousands in wages that the fans pay for every week but the slightest criticism, and yes this season it is very warranted they can’t perform?
All the fans want to see is fight, effort and pride to wear the old gold, and there’s far too many of them that haven’t shown that at all.

Fans are entitled to Boo and criticise just like the happy clap brigade are entitled to clap along to the dross and poor running of the club

31 Dec 2025 17:52:45
Hes got to pick a starting line up without hwang, hoever, strand larsen, and tbh doc,
Consistantly, to get confidence up.
Any one player who isn't putting it in
Can rot on the bench.
Kilman part of deal from hammers for jsl.

31 Dec 2025 19:03:26
Glad someone said it sevlow, I said much the same in the past but all you get in response is that your a happy clapper and the players earn enough to ignore the boos. There are only a few players that have a big enough ego to ignore getting abuse and unfortunately we don’t have any of them.

As my partner always reminds me when I talk about Wolves, the fans love to moan about everything, she only went once and couldn’t understand why so many fans were so negative.

Its funny de wolf was god, you say you want to see fight, effort and pride, I’ve seen that many times this season yet still a lot of fans moan and berate the team week in week out. Clearly you want more than that as your still saying they aren’t good enough and that fans are entitled to boo. Also saying people are happy clapping the poor running of the club is missing the point entirely.

31 Dec 2025 19:08:59
Who are the ones not trying De Wolf was God?

31 Dec 2025 14:40:00
Happy new year to Eds and all the people on this site enjoy don't have to much and fight the Christmas tree. Hopefully 2026 will be a lot better well can't be any worse not if your Wolves.

{Ed033's Note - Happy new year

31 Dec 2025 14:34:02
Seen the match last night good performance on the whole if one thing Wolves don't do is move the ball quickly. Even though MU were not good it took 5 or 6 passes there up in the Wolves 18 yard box or just outside.

Wolves took 6 or seven passes just to get to the halfway line to many sideways and backwards passing. Now comes WH stop Bowen stop WH simple as 3 points looking up.

31 Dec 2025 09:47:24
Lots of us on here were calling for Mane to start back when VP was manager, shame it has taken so long, but looking a great player now.
Wonder who else is a potentially good player not getting a chance?

31 Dec 2025 08:32:47
I only watched the first half last night, thought we finished the half the better side. It seemed to me after Hwang gave the ball away for their goal all the players stopped passing to him.
As we have said for a long time now, don’t understand how he is playing week in week out.
Amazing to see this morning Hwang played most of the game, did he improve 2nd half?

Happy for a point achieved, now they need 3pts v West Ham and a good performance, we have been here before, good performance away followed by a diabolical home game.

31 Dec 2025 08:50:31
Yes he stayed out there until he got cramp Banksy, even then he laid flat out as we were breaking and we put the ball out for him. Fair enough the mancs hit the ball back to Sa but a promising movement was broken up, surely he could of sat up or something?
Sad as it may sound, hypocritical as I may sound, I don't think we have much option against him starting as it stands, there's no doubt he can run and provide questions for the oppo defenders, it's just what he does when he gets it. He did seem to be closing down on manc players better in the 2nd.


The energy was good last night, the difference in tolu over larsen and the running of mane most notable.
I though Doc lead well, mosquiro over enthusiastic at times, jackson getting where he should be, Hugo almost quality, kreicji getting everywhere, Arias much improved and of course Sa, not just for his scraping save from mosquiro back header but his 3 times punching clearance.
The identity of a pack was there it seemed, and the fact we took a point, maybe deserving 3, shows that if we turn up we can take some pride in the remaining games.

31 Dec 2025 09:16:02
Cheers for the info Abbeywolf. As you say it seems he has to start, someone said he has created 4 goal assists so far this season, unfortunately for the opposition.
Must be frustrating for his teammates, surely they must question why he is playing, realise we are struggling for players at the moment, however last night at HT or 60mins I thought Rob would replace him, even with one of the younger lads.


Onwards and upwards regardless 🤞

31 Dec 2025 10:24:53
Good performance last night and nearly got a win with Krejcis shot and Mosqueras follow up great header for the equaliser. The game clarified that Larsen cannot play as a target man Tolu did well at keeping the ball but it kept coming back when Larsen came on. If he stays I would play Larsen on the left with Tolu down the middle and drop Hwang who once again gave the ball away for the goal.

Mane was great again and with him on the right it will really stretch West Ham. The question is do we bring Andre back in as he an Gomes play the same role. Jackson was a threat and would keep the back five the same for West Ham. COYW

31 Dec 2025 11:33:38
Excellent performance last night after conceding a soft deflected goal. What is really tragic is that we have now proven in a few matches that we can match the likes of Spurs, Brighton, Villa, Arsenal and Man U when we put our backs into it.

Too late for this season though, short of a miracle. Sa saving us from yet another own goal was probably the save of the season for him.

31 Dec 2025 11:46:45
Hwang signed a new 5 year deal at the end of 23 I think, so he's 2 years into a deal until 28, no idea if he started or was involved in every game unless injured since then which would surely be the case if he has a contractual obligation to start.

31 Dec 2025 12:09:28
I would seriously consider playing Hugo in hwangs position with Wolfe behind.
Hugo started as a frontsman before dropping back, he can cross the ball and scored several for the U21. He and Wolfe overlapping would surely give us better outlet that Hwang, but as you refer to Arddunby, we don't know the contractual appearance agreements.

31 Dec 2025 14:06:03
Hugo Bueno should have started on the left yesterday with Wolfe behind him. Hwang offers nothing. Gonzalez, Lopez (if he stays), Rodrigo, Bellegarde, Mane, Arias are all better options than Hwang as they all try and attack.

31 Dec 2025 14:45:22
I add Liverpool to the list of teams we have played well against this season, namely Spurs, Brighton, Villa, Arsenal and Man U. Is Hwang just being played out of position? He's more dangerous centrally and he's fast.

He nearly scored against Arsenal when he broke away pursued by an Arsenal posse. Against Man U he had at least a couple of shots at goal, off target, but shots all the same. The Sky commentators said he had a good match.

31 Dec 2025 17:01:19
Hwang had 2 shots yesterday which were both wide, high and handsome. He mis kicked the ball into touch when clear in the box and trying to cross. He was dawdling on the ball when Heaven dispossessed him and we conceded. Then a few minutes before we scored, he was just outside the Man Utd box and had 3 players (Arias, Gomes and Tolu) to pass to but he panicked and got easily tackled. He isn't good enough.

Over the last few seasons if say, Jimenez, Jota, Sarabia, Cunha or even Guedes were clear through on goal, the fans would expect them to score and be surprised if they missed, whereas with Hwang, you expect him to miss and are surprised if his shot is on target.

{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Matchday 18 - Quick Round Up

31 Dec 2025 00:45:37
I was calling for Mane to start at beginning of season and some said he's not ready, I think he has proven he is ready.
The lad is a great prospect.
Mosquera nearly had one of those football comedy moments too with almost a own goal which Sa did superbly to prevent.
Hwang well Jeff I hope the shirt sales were worth it he is so bad time to sell him.


The whole team did well and a very good point, i've said it before it only takes for us to go on a bit of a run of good results and we'll be back in the mix let's hope tonight is the start of that run.

31 Dec 2025 08:30:27
Agreed Rated.
Better team display last night. Hwang was a little better but gave away the ball for their first goal.
I would have kept Tolu on, especially as his replacement, Larsen, did F All as usual.
Against my better judgement Sa was a man reborn and fought for his place well.


Mane was also on a mission going forward but had no real support at the key moments.
Overall, pleased with the team and as you say hopefully start of a run. It’s been a very long time but now I can say I’m looking forward to the West Ham game!

30 Dec 2025 23:17:38
Mane, reminds me so much of Robbie Keane.Hope we can keep him longer, though, FWAW .

30 Dec 2025 22:18:10
Better tonight but we are still short in attack Mane looks an excellent prospect at last a point

30 Dec 2025 22:54:45
I couldn’t watch the game tonight as busy but sounds like we did well. Another point away at Man Utd which can’t be bad and avoided getting some more unwanted records which is good. Now to aim for avoiding the worst team in the prem record and who knows what 2026 can bring.

I feel like we are improving every game under RE, hope for our first win at the weekend, big game that could change the outlook.

31 Dec 2025 05:35:35
I didn't see the game but have read that Larsen was booked. Was it for being on the pitch?

31 Dec 2025 07:28:31
It's for pantomime dame next year OAP, no he fouled Cunha I think trying to keep ball up their end after an awful corner from Hugo fell short.
