What a tactical genius KJ is! Best striker on the right wing and shortest player as the target man. Stunning performance tonight by the keystone cops - shambolic and inept from the start. Players are lack lustre and can't string two passes together, lack ideas and creativity. Not surprised they were booed off that was shocking tonight.
Needs sorting asap or we're looking at relegation again on tonight's performance.

Didn't see the match but nothing I read says anything positive. This wasn't just an off day I was kind of expecting it like I sense all is not well like at the end of McCarthy era. It's not even injuries that we can use as an excuse Alf is similar quality to Dicko but we are lost without Sako even on the right which doesn't make sense but that's how it looks.
Should we replace Kenny now or give him till Christmas? Because we know that leaving it too late is disasterous.

I agree, can't put it all down to injuries. There was no desire to win out there and worryingly absolutely no leadership - Baath was ineffective, Iorfa had a nightmare game. ALF has not got Dicko's deft touch in front of goal. There were no game changers on the bench and only one available defender in Doherty who came on late - to do what exactly? I know on here posters been encouraging the 'glass half full' philosophy which normally I would agree with but, at the moment, I feel like I don't even have a flippin' glass!

EJ - your initial post is spot on. Wasting Afobe's talent, ALF's first touch is appalling (nearly as bad as Martinez's) . Afobe has to use his pace playing on last man. KJ seems to have lost it - tactically and has destroyed any confidence players had. The whole team were shocking last night, and couldn't string a pass together. Not even an a player showing an option when they had a throw in?

Hi all I have refrained from posting on here for a while as all the negativity does my head in but can't hold back anymore. I have backed KJ 100% and believe he had earned the right to be given some time after completely rebuilding the club and it's relationship with us fans but I have to say after last night I think he has lost it! A few things I think need to happen or he will be gone very soon. Firstly the defence needs confidence in it's goalkeeper and they have none which I think is contributing massively to their shocking performances of late (only Scotty has not done much wrong though not great) so Ikeme needs restoring asap. Secondly Price needs to start as once again he is made scapegoat, he protects the defence well and allows Mac freedom to get forward so we look better attacking and as much as I like Coady sometimes it isn't about your best 11 individuals but the best 11 to work together. This is the big one for me but why the hell is Afobe not being played up front when he is our biggest goal threat and he will do most damage in and around the box. Last night he was left back at one point! I like Alf but he is a better option from the bench so we need to replace Dicko asap as I think we miss him more than we miss Sako. Until these things happen then I fear the worst instead of feeling positive and looking forward to a promotion charge. The minority have got their wish with Morgan so now there is almost zero chance of any investment so well done those guys. Sometimes it's better the devil you know as some of the so called fans think we will get another Sir Jack i.e a Wolves fan with loads of money. Well i'm sorry but that ain't going to happen so get a reality check please. I am fairly happy with the squad but they need the right formation and playing in their proper positions which I think has to go back to 4 4 1 1 with Afobe up top. Please KJ we can all see it so why can't you!

K. J. as lost the plot I'm sorry to say Saville, Rowe, coady, Wallace, Jordan, Byrne, how on earth have these identical players improved our F. C. , waste of money Jacobs was as good as these players and we sold him
Playing with a back 4 and a goalkeeper who keeps dropping clangers and with only Docherty as cover and only 2 strikers and a young 17 year old to come on says it all YOU can't GET ANY TIGHTER. a club like wolves should not be run like this with the resources a certain MR. MORGAN as at is disposal and what's worrying is I don't think Morgan will be in a hurry to sell its just another way out for him to run the club as it is without spending any money to get is own back .
K. J. as become a tinker man telling the truth how bad the team is playing without having a CLUE how to put it right, when I have stated all a long we were not good enough last year we needed a few players of experience and quality to get we over the line and that was with SAKO playing, I REPEAT THE SIGHNINGS THIS YEAR HAVE NOT INPROVED the side at all in fact I think we have gone backwards and for that i'm AFRAID K. J. must pay the price because that performance against Brentford will only reduce the fans watching football at the molineux and a certain MR. MORGAN will not like that.

South Banker - excellently put.
22 Oct 2015 10:29:43
"There is almost zero chance of Morgan investing now"? I think that would have been the case anyway. Am I right or wrong, I know its still Morgans club, but having stepped down as chairman isn't it up to moxey whether we spend the clubs money on players in the next window? He was the one that said Morgan had put 30 million into wolves bank account. It might have that amount now, but surely moxey has some sort of budget?
22 Oct 2015 13:53:19
Part of the issue with Afobe is his own desire to play in a deeper role. IMHO, he is totally ineffective there as he collects the ball and passes and then stands there rather than run forward into space. Play him upfront and stop pandering KJ. Or sell him for £14m and reinvest all the money with a CB, LW and striker as priority.
22 Oct 2015 14:01:55
Don't worry guys; KJ has already worked out the answer to all our problems. Let's go and sign YET ANOTHER cheap midfielder from the lower leagues! Yes, we are apparently looking at a midfielder from Plymouth in League Two. Crisis over, Europe here we come!
22 Oct 2015 19:28:53
We would be better with Jacobs back again probably better with Hunt back again for that matter. Please no more midfielders they only end up on the loan market it's a good CB we need and an experienced forward like Iwulemo was when he came to us. Surely someone can play LM out of all those signings.
22 Oct 2015 21:38:16
Jtwolf my understanding is Moxey has got what he got, with the situation as it is there will be no funds available unless we sell first, said we were a club in crisis, you scoffed, said we were in a relegation scrap oh how you chortled.
The redman is a man scorned BE WARNED.
As I said his greed well may be our saviour, he is aruthless business man.
He won't want to lose money on our potential, or lack of potential.
Brendan Rodgers anyone, watch this space.

It'd probably be more . realistic were it not for you coming out with the same thing round about this time last season. As relegation struggles go, finishing just outside the play-offs was pretty good.
That said, this season's a different beast. Our goal threat is weaker without Sako, our defence weaker without Stears. And while we've gone backwards, most of our competitors have improved. 'Tiny' Brentford had three strikers with international experience the other night- one who wasn't needed of the bench. No investment- no surprises results wise.
Paying kids is admirable but without experience alongside them. They will and do make mistakes, and in this league those mistakes will be punished. And while you'd think this time next year they'll be stronger for the experience, let's face it, if we don't go up they'll be gone
Jackett's team selections and tactics have become increasingly desperate- just seemingly hoping to stumble across the magic formula.
Worrying times.

Would like to know how the recruitment team can sign so many mid fielders who have not improved the team what so ever, they are to blame wasting whatever bit of money we were given, the club looks like its in a mess and the backroom staff don't seam to have a clue even dare I say it K. J. looks like he as lost the plot and I never thought I would say that, to say he is happy with that defence means 3 things to me
1 He as not been allowed to bring players in he wanted, blame the 2 M's for that, but they should tell the fans what's going on they pay there money or is K. J. a yes man and does as he is told
2 Or is K. J. just a tinker man who at this time doesn't seam to now what he is doing
And to sign so many players that have not improved the side what's so ever is becoming laughable WE NEED LOAN PLAYERS and please no more mid fielders for this year.
