Kevin S. Assilleekunt 1 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 It feels sweet to me because we were shite 2nd half. Wolves had zero quality, I'm surprised they actually scored at all, though they should have had a pelanty and the disallowed goal should have stood. Terrible performance by us 2nd half against a shit demoralised wolves side. Lack of concentration I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 One of the least pleasing wins I've experienced tbh. Just beyond me how we let them into it like that. Â Wolves' attitude was spot on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hostile_statue 0 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Absolutely shocking second half. What were we playing at? How Wolves didn't get a point out of that is beyond me. Really worrying performance. Yes they were really going for it, to be fair... but we invited the pressure.  Can't complain about the win but it's a sour feeling one.  The last 20 mins or so were shocking, yes. But up until then I definitely think we were the better team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cabaye faded and second half passed him by a bit I thought, he doesn't do the blood and thunder games yet, he will though.  Another win though. Sweet.

themags 0 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 difficult viewing the 2nd half, but least we hung on for the win Wolves can bitch all they want, we'll call it even for the various assaults on Barton and others during our last game here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney 0 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 You'll always expect that level of pressure 2-0 up away from home. Decent performance iyam. Â Some poor decision making by our lot late on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good for us like, thank god another 3 points but he should be apologising to wolves like  aye but then wolves are a bunch of dirty cheating bastards who deserve every "bad" decisions that goes against them just for karmas sake  Was just thinking the exact same thing.  Tottenham game should be a very good opportunity to give Ben Arfa, Marveaux and Santon some time on the pitch. The first two in particular I think didn't feature today because Pardew wouldn't have wanted to risk them - hence why we saw Lovenkrands and Guthrie out there today.  I was disappointed today with Tiote and Cabaye not able to wrestle any momentum back our way in the second half. Their substitutions really made a difference - when they ran at either Simpson or Raylor my heart was in my mouth every time.  Krul MOTM from Jonas.

Noelie 103 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Very happy with the 3 points. However, we didn't deserve them, in the 2nd half we were absolutely pathetic, barely a shadow of the team that won last week. A 2 goal lead in the first half was flattering to say the least. Pardoo was at his absolute worst, Lovenkrands on for Ba when he had Sammy & Benny in the wings. Raylor was awful so why didn't Pardoo give our new defender a run out. Was Oberton playing today? We won but it was hardly an inspiring performence ................. by anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent performance iyam. Some poor decision making by our lot late on.  I just felt we were too complacent.  Hopefully we'll not be so complacent in future now after that. Bit of a reality check. Would like Pardew to say something along those lines to the media and players. Perhaps he should have put subs on earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveTheBobby 1 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Happy with today, some good stuff happening . Bit of a strange game though, in that we played well but in end possibly "lucky" to get the result . Fuck that though - an away win's an away win , and if it's against some Midland's idiots - so much the better ! Â Been glad Best has been getting a chance too and I'd still stick with him. Although he gets grief and rarely 'shines' I think his work ethic has positive effect in our play and he seems to be slowly improving. Put a great ball in for Jonas that should've been put away. Â Jours contente . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Lovenkrands deserved some minutes after his 2 goals against Forest. Can understand him not wanting to risk Ben Arfa getting injured when we're 2-0 up. Â Don't agree with your second line there, if we're 2-0 up again there's no point risking Santon. Defensive subs are only for extreme cases if you ask me (injuries or truly awful performances).

hostile_statue 0 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I thought Obertan improved slightly the last 2 games or so but today he was shite again, unfortunately. Â MOTM has to be Krul. Tiote's first half was great. Best is winning me over, offers quite a lot and working hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monroe Transfer 0 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I thought Obertan was decent in the first half. Anonymous in the second, along with Cabaye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin S. Assilleekunt 1 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Best made some great plays today, Ba should have put away the chance Leon made for him. It was good movement from Ba though, Shola would never have got into that position imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent performance iyam. Some poor decision making by our lot late on. Bang on.  I hope I'm just over-analysing and being too negative/pessimistic.  But most of all I hope we learn from that. We can't afford to be complacent. 2 weeks now for Pardew to drill that into the players. Plenty of time to analyse the negatives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang on.  I'm genuinely surprised at people's expectations for the 2nd half. We still created 2/3 very good chances. Wolves are a decent side and McCarthy made some good subs. Good result and performance. Those deep crosses at Raylors post was obviously a tactical thing and worked well.  Pardew should slate Besty in private for not going to the corner flag late on.

Kevin S. Assilleekunt 1 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Remember that was still a weakened 11 we fielded today, judging by Rapedoo's subs he was just trying to get through the game avoiding injuries before easing HBA and Santon back into the team. As shite as we were 2nd half, 1st half we were dominant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
