Don, I hear you but I can't stand Orta. He's a grade A
tw 4 t. IMO. I did see the reports that Adams possibly
suffered a 3 tear strain. But club was being coy about it.
3 would mean Tyler's out rest of season. What you
posted seems to suggest that the reports were true.

Without Adams we are in a really tough spot.

Roca wasn't the best today, hope the boss is keeping an eye on the U21's tomorrow to assess whether Darko can make a step up. He has been very good recently but there's a big step up between his level and the first team.
Interesting that Archie was on the bench yesterday, to the best of my knowledge he has had little game time since he came back from injury. Might be that the plan was to rest Gyabi prior to the Sunderland game and the was no plan to use Archie as Koch has played DCM before now.

I think if we had played Arsenal today we may have lost 8 - 4 at best. Lucky for us Wolves struggled to hit a barn door.
We looked so open with a non existent midfield where no-one was able to get hold of the ball.
Our only outlet Gnonto was substituted.
An amazing win and such a relief but I've not seen anywhere enough yet to convince me that our manager ( Nice guy that he is )has any sort of handle on his best side or tactics. After saying that,he's getting results and long may that continue

With Adams out it would be nice if Forshaw came back to work.

Looking at the highlights, wolves should defo had a pen. The shirt pull on Traore was minor and ref got it right, cant be asking for a foul as it was the tiniest pull ever.

red card was shocking by the ref, how he missed it to begin with ill never know

Not a pen imo or or the ref or VAR or the MOTD pundits.

Pretty much called that correct.

My thoughts too but I think wolves were lucky to finish with ten men.
Great goal by rasmus but why take off Gononto? He can't play 90 minutes all of a sudden? Thought Summerville was good and Aaronson not good enough. Manager likes him though. A shame that two London teams couldn't get the job done or it would have been a perfect weekend. Spurs imploding, they have it so bad up there in the top six.

I must admit, I thought it should have been a pen when I saw it during the game.

Looking at it on Motd, their player goes down like he was shot when it was minimal contact, so they must have deemed it "not enough of a foul to give a penalty".

As for the shirt pull, Traore (who was a real handful when he came on!) felt a little tug on his shirt and expected the ref to blow. Despite that, he still managed to get to the ball first, but was tackled and lost it. Not a pen. Play to the whistle!

I think VAR did OK today in part, but kudos to the ref who had the confidence to stick with his original assessment of the Traore incident after looking at the monitor.

I don't know how Traore even felt that tug. He wasn't pulled back a mm. If a Leeds player stopped playing like that I might not have a tv.

Like someone said earlier good on the ref sticking with his call. Really haven't seen too many refs stick with there call after being called over by var.

Just rewatched the highlights. The one thing that stands out is the cynical side of Wolves , no surprise they've amassed 6 reds - some really nasty studs showing and landing. Can't believe that probable appeals being lodged, challenge on Bill was career threatening and the lad on the sidelines loses control and has to be restrained.

Lopey's 6.5 minute whingefest currently on the BBC web is just so blinkered. They had good chances but didn't capitalise - sounds familiar but that's football.

Adama stopping dead should be what Lopey gets angry about and the penalty call for them against Firpo was really weak.
