There's not even a pretense that the midfield will be used to control or dictate anything.

With Matic we’re essentially playing a one man midfield, he’s dropping into centre back all the time. Need to take a forward off and get Fred or Bruno on, try to control the match.Greenwood looking direct and dangerous at leastMcT was great last match but he couldnt keep that form up. Not very good todayThis is ridiculously bad.Shaw has been constantly out of position.Ronaldo pressing
Of the forward players, he's the one pressing the most.Mctominay is having a disasterclass.Mctominay is back..does any team make more unforced errors than we do? I really don’t think so. WE ARE SO SLOPPY9 attempts from Wolves.There's something deeply wrong.Thank god they can't score. Shaw has been sloppy so far.
Nooo, you want to say that one game wasn't enough to convince you that he can be...how was it ; new Lampard?I’m hoping Wolves game-plan was to come out fast and catch us out and they can’t sustain this. They’ve been dreadfully conservative every other time I’ve watched them this season.
If we weren't playing Ronaldo we'd be playing someone else up front instead not this additional midfielder you want.Sancho back to his average sameSancho has been utter garbage.Whatever way I try to analyse it, I keep coming back to the fact that we simply aren't very good at the basics of the game.
Being able to consistently:
a) trap a ball
b) see a pass/run
c) make a pass/run
Would solve a huge number of our issues.We seem to be content with them having the bulk of possession. No pressing at all. Just standing around waiting for the ball.Please sub McT now...
spot on. Even Fellaini would have done better with his chest.The club have one of the worst midfields in the league. Mctomminay not good enough.I think in training they just need to do passing drills week after week because none of them can pass properly.McTominay so poor on the ball.If AWB could cross.Really need to wake up. Lots of sloppy short passes.Varane and Sancho are so disappointing.Are we the team in gold? Please say we're the team in gold.Sancho needs to come off.Rangnick is Ole in disguise. Like one of those Scbooy Doo badies, just take off the maskWolves 10 shots to our 2
54% in possessionSo many crosses from AWB missing Ronaldo.McTominay is stinking the place out with his touch.mct, sancho beyond awful.If we're going to score, it's coming from Mason and AWB. They're doing well down the right.
There is no midfield. It's like there's a huge crater in the middle of the pitch that they're passing around.Our passing is horrific at timesAWB has been alright so farfeck that’s 2 crosses now just too high for Ronaldo- Status
