Lighthouse Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Well, it’s a decent place to get a point but oh Theo...
Saint_clark Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Disappointed at staying 5th in the league. 1
bpsaint Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Would have taken it before the game but we should have taken all 3 points tonight.
Baird of the land Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Would have been happy with that at start & probably fair reflection. slightly frustrating that Walcott missed such a glaring opportunity to make it 2 nil though
trousers Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 (edited) Fair result. 7 games unbeaten and 3 points off the top after a quarter of the season. Happy days. Edited 23 November, 2020 by trousers 4
BotleySaint Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 With Ings we'd probably have won that. In the end we did well to hang on.
Ex Lion Tamer Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 That's one of the reasons why Wenger didn't persist with Walcott up front 2
John B Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Seems a reasonable result considering how many shots Wolves had on goal 2
LGTL Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Walcott chance would have killed the game but a very decent point all things considered. 1
OttawaSaint Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Will take the point but as someone mentioned Theo could have sealed it and then Stu fucked up. Mind you, we're usually total shit after an international break so I'll take the improvement. 1
lickierambert Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 (edited) Fair result all in all. Ings would have scored that second one though. Armstrong giving the ball away for a goal again. good result to take into Man U Edited 23 November, 2020 by lickierambert 1
gammon cheeks Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Played ok first half and Theo should have made it 2 0..... but lets be honest Wolves had quite a few chances to win the game ...so happy with a point 1
Mr X Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Just now, Jeremy Corbyn said: Fair result. But Theo 😭 It was harder to miss 😂
Pickles Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 McCarthy absolutely immense,could easily have lost by a few goals if not for him. Nice finish by Theo...but yes awful miss as well. Overall, will take the point but do wish that we had went for it a bit more. On to Man United, time to eat my birthday steak👍
nta786 Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 (edited) Yep Theo there had to finish the game off completely with that chance. The other negative for me is usually our fitness is next to none but we looked somewhat tired in the last 15-20 minutes there. However- positive is the point- we didn’t lose to what is usually a very good Wolves side Also shout out to Macca in goal who kept us in it. We are still 5th and keep the unbeaten momentum going on Edited 23 November, 2020 by nta786 Wolves aren’t in the Europa League
DT Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Decent point. Vestergaard, McCarthy, Romeu all excellent. Theo should have scored. Never mind.
Pamplemousse Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 A good away point, and the fair result. And as others have said, with Ings I think we win that game.
Suhari Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 We didn't seem to have the spark and speed of pass of the last few games. Maybe due to the break? Shame about the Walcott miss. Would've taken a point beforehand of course, so can't complain. We can't be annoyed at staying 5th, surely?!

waylander Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Good result. McCarthy saved at least 3 really good chances. But oh! Theo.
StrangelyBrown Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Good game - but could have been a comfortable win with a decent finish from Walcott. Not the best game from our forward players (all 4 of them) in the second half which put a lot of pressure on the rest of the team. Wolves really went up a gear in the second half and deserved their point in the end. Vestergaard my motm. McCarthy showing great saves and would have been my motm but for some piss poor distribution in the second half.
Convict Colony Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 fair result given the chances on both sides and style of football. Thought ref missed some blatant fouls, wolves looked better in 2nd half looked like we got overrun in midfield and couldnt retain possession. Less said about Armstrong and Walker Peters losing the ball in the centre of the field in a dangerous positions the better. 1
Teddeer Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Good point against a tough opponent who are in the midst of a good run.
saint1977 Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Great to see Theo score and a good point, but yes, that miss clean through was frustrating. Wolves better second half and deserved something. McCarthy very good, back 4 decent, Berty coped with Traore well, KWP played well bar one silly giveaway after beating two, Vesty very good, Bed ok but couple of ropey moments. Romeu and Armstrong best of the midfield, Djenepo tracked back well, JWP decent but not 100% his normal energy level which understandable given the precaution with his hamstring. Adams decent but would like to see him take more gambles on the far post, good assist for Theo. 1
The Cat Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Going 2-0 up wouldn't have necessarily been game over, they had loads of chances and if it wasn't for McCarthy and some bad finishing could have scored a few. Very happy with a point.
hypochondriac Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Bit of a dull game to watch. Decent point though and continues our excellent start to the season. 1

His first goal for us, and there will be more! Well done Theo. 2
woodsaint1 Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 You score some, you miss some. Thats a very good point for us

trousers Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 No bookings for us tonight. Must be a while since that last happened?
beatlesaint Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 (edited) McCarthy kept us in that, and special mention for Walker Peters who I thought was excellent. One of the blocks he put in was superb. Edited 23 November, 2020 by beatlesaint 4
Jimmy_D Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Could have gone either way, in the end went neither way. Easy to look at either the chances we missed or the chances Wolves missed and say either team should have won, point probably a fair result. 1
nta786 Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 If we had the 9-0 sweepstake, did anyone have our own player saying it after the full-time whistle? Okay he didn’t say 9-0, but he said ‘that Leicester result’
hypochondriac Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 I could listen to Theo being interviewed all day. I have a bit of a man crush. 2
UpweySaint Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Probably can't grumble about a point, when they scored I did fear they would kick on and find another ... Diallo's little turn to get away from his man was decent, shame the final ball wasn't quite there as it would have felt wonderful to pinch all 3 points! 1

DT Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Sorry. Forgot Armstrong, who was superb. We’re a good watch now
Hawkswood Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 I think we're all going to agree that we're happy with a point there. I didn't realise how tough Wolves are to break down. We seemed to be afraid to play quicker forward passes at times, but really no complaints about the performance. Vest my MoM.
Viking Saint Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Very good point and would've happily taken that before kick off. Tough place to visit and come away with anything. Didn't see Theo's miss as my stream froze, but am getting the picture!! More than happy to be fifth after the way the season started, didn;t look too promising after Spurs and Brentford......COYR! 1
fanimal Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Fair point just ran out of a bit of puff in the end as always ran further than the opposition
The Kraken Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 More than happy with a point, as Theo said in his pre-match, almost feels like a win. McCarthy kept us in it no doubt, really good from him. Didn’t think the whole side were at their best tonight, a bit sloppy. And Djenepo still struggles IMO. But overall cannot complain, they put in a shift and ground out a very good result.
Chez Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 could have won, but lucky to get a point. McCarthy was outstanding. I'm not used to having so little to moan about, but if we are brutally honest, we didn't create much. We gave the ball away more than normal. Wolves are a half decent side with a shed load of high quality players. A point is a good one. 1
S-Clarke Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 It was a good point in a very tight game. Two very similar sides in terms of quality, no reasons why we both shouldn't be there or there around each other come the end of the season. We look very evenly matched. We had our chances, they had their chances, although I think their chances were better and our GK was worked much more - so for that reason alone, I'll take the point. Fair result. 1

And if we can get Ings back and firing in a few weeks then we might finish above them.
Pilchards Posted 23 November, 2020 Posted 23 November, 2020 Tough game. Knew we would not play great football after the first 15 minutes as Wolves shut down the supply from Romeu and JWP. Thought Che did well while Armstrong should of come off around 80 minutes plus Long was useless. Only on the pitch for his heading ability IMHO.
