Compared to Arsenal who have had the same two fixtures we're a point ahead and one goal less in difference.

I’m not happy at all about Wilfs contribution or general attitude today but he’ll still be 1st name of the team sheet next week without question .

its not just one game he seems to me that he doesn't have that fear factor anymore , watching other teams they all chase down the wide players with 2 players because of the danger, that's why Eze was a breath of fresh air, end of the day Wilf needs to man up and shut up and get back to playing, as I said a 50% Wilf is no good to us, that's why I say drop him to the bench, then maybe he will start giving his all for the team again, and he can see areas he can exploit when he comes on

The other observation with Wilf is, with the ref's not blowing up for minor infringements, he needs to adjust his game. He should be looking to stay on his feet and get shots/ crosses away rather than trying to win free kicks.

Agreed, but sadly, I'm not sure it's in his DNA to do that.

When he's on form Wilf is great BUT its actually pointless him winning free kicks when we only waste them anyway. I hope the new staff have some set piece expertise.
Wilf stop looking to go down when 'fouled' outside the penalty area and refs might start believing you when you go down in the box.
Also if Wilf can't get past fullbacks anymore then stick him up next to Benteke and sign a proper wing back who can help Mitchell but still get forward to swing in crosses ( something Wilf rarely does).

I agree,I was at the game and thought Joel had a good game yesterday.Isn’t it funny that over the last eight seasons whatever manager has come in have shown faith in Wardy and I know they no more about football than the idiots on here that keep calling him a league one defender.

He's been awful the last 2 seasons, he copes in 1 game and suddenly I'm an idiot? I'd laugh if he wasn't my clubs player. He's well out of his league. Carry him almost every game. Next you'll tell me Luka played well last year.
