No we wont. Ayew isn't good enough and Bats is a charlatan. Don't know what he is still at the club.
More of a Brock's banger than dynamite.


I don't think Ayew has been given much of a chance this year, but he did his cause a lot of good today. As for Batshuayi, he should sit on the bench with his Belgian team-mate whilst Mateta is given a run imo.

Ayew might not be exactly top draw but he does put in a shift ! Unlike Benteke.

I suggest you re watch the games Benteke works hard he plays a different game to Ayew because they are different type of player.

If you provide Benteke with proper service he will score goals but this is not happening we don't have much creativity the players that we have offering it want to play this play through the middle walk it in football.

Riedewald should be playing from the start, does the simple things well and doesn’t waste a pass. Provides the perfect cover for the back 4.

Riedewald is ok in a midfield 3, but not in a 2. He likes to pass backwards and sideways a lot.

That may have been the case 4 or 5 years ago but not today. He will only score where the ball is put on his head or at his feet. He doesn't make runs for balls played into th4e box. He just waits for it to come to him. I get the impression he's too afraid of missing the goal.

Are you even watching the game?

SOme players are switching around so say wilf switches with eze so maybe that is why you are confused its being done so we can play higher different players closing down then switching to will gap when defending

Did you apologise for posting this ?

Riedewald was a proper Ajax player and we should be happy to have him in our squad. Of course, he ought to start every game. He shows it over and over again when given the chance...

Batshuayi allows us to play differently to using Benteke - we looked more likely to keep the ball better when we had it in the attacking third - maybe that was Ayew as well?
The ball didn't get given away so much and whilst I am not a fan of either Bats or Ayew particularly I just thought it worked better.
Reidewald and Clyne need to start every game - Reidewald in particular allows Luka to do more of what he does best as well.

Couldn't agree more, I'm surprised he doesn't start - he creates too.

None of our midfield combinations are good enough to play a a pair in midfield. Thats why we need someone playing behind the striker to help them out.

But we only signed a no10 (Eze) this summer. There's no such thing as a good formation, only one that suits your players. We played with three defensive midfielders last year because our best XI included them. Now it doesn't so we don't.

Camarasa.

He's had 20 games to make that change this season.

Our win had more to do with the inadequacies of Wolves.
Our manager has used 4-2-3-1 before on many occasions and at many different clubs, we will continue to argue with my understanding that he is struggling due to the poor quality of some of the squad he has to deal with and yours that everything is purely down to him being tactically unfit.

Mr Hodgson will pass the baton onto our next manager with our club safely secure in this league, why is this so annoying for you?

You haven't got to be rude if you post back.

Of you believe the result was simply down to Wolves inadequacy, then Roy surely deserves no credit.

He keeps praising the quality of the squad. You keep slating it and using it as an excuse for his totally inept tactical approach up to yesterday.

Roy only proved he's got it wrong for 18 months.

I find you more annoying than him to be fair. Forgive me if pointing pointing out the obvious in blunt terms rude, I'm only trying to dumb it down to a level you understand.
