Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [16th - 21st August 2019]

[McBain]

Gutted we didn't put away our chances today, should have beaten Chelsea.

Should've won the game without a doubt, the Maddison chance was an especially bad miss.

 

[BaZ87]

How could you go and forget Gustov like that

I could never forget him but him and the few other Chelsea fans we have were never big contributors in here.

 

[Converge]

Nice little chant there for Luke Shaw taking the corner!

Looking like it’ll shape up to be a good game so far

 

[fez]

Martial is a massive pansy when it comes to any contested balls. Should have been a tap in there.

 

[omnomnom]

James should be walking.

 

[Converge]

Horrendous dive by James there. They better work that out of him this season.

 

[robfosters]

Terrible from James there

 

[Alex h]

Get in 1 nil united

 

[fez]

Smashed in!

 

[Robbo]

Epic goal.

 

[Cob]

Finish!

 

[explicit4u]

Can't stand Sean Dyche but he's right about the lack of punishment, a yellow is way too soft.


You don't save those, great finish from Martial

What about professional fouls to stop an attack that is likely to lead to a goal. What about those "fouls" where there is contact but it wouldn't knock a toddler off their stride? I don't condone diving but there are plenty of other things that are just as bad. At least VAR can stop diving that leads to goals.

 

[Converge]

Dare I say it, we’re looking quite confident and controlled on the whole. Quite like this starting 11.

Everyone looks quite sharp tonight which is a rarity. Hopefully that goal will bring Wolves out of their shell a bit because they were totally happy to sit with 10 men behind the ball for the first half an hour. They are a decent side so they should have a go.

 

[chroniclard]

Where is last seasons Wolves?

 

[fez]

Moutinho is a little ****. Goes to ground, kicks Pogba and then get a tap on the shin and acts like hes been shot and gets the foul.

 

[robfosters]

Where is last seasons Wolves?

Too stagnant in the transfer market. Rested on their laurels and it’s not working. I had a feeling it would happen.

 

[adam cool dude]

All those pundits saying Rashford and Martial need to produce. Seem to be doing an alright job at the moment.

Where is last seasons Wolves?

Last season Wolves were dominated until Young was sent off.
