Your Wolverhampton Wanderers v Southampton Match Reports

I_would added 17:22 - Sep 3 Seems like Ralph has found a way to turn a decent team into a bunch of confused strangers in one week. Wrong starters (Elyounoussi take a long holiday in Egypt please). Peroud is very obviously not fit. Adams was particularly ineffective today, Mara should have started. We need a new dead ball specialist as Prowsey can't put the ball where it needs to be with enough pace, plus every corner today went to the opposition players.

1885_SFC added 17:29 - Sep 3 I wouldn't pay too much attention to the dribbling bellend I_would. As usual he's nothing other than negative. Funny how you never hear from him when we win - yet as soon as we lose, he's the first one here. WAC

codge added 17:30 - Sep 3 Deserved more but one lapse by KWP leaving his man so wide open and no one else picking up Podance was costly,still we had chances but how Che missed his first one is mind boggling must go down as the miss of his career,also unlucky to hit the crossbar. Edozie looks the real deal so things are looking bright fo the future,disappointing result but overall we were a little unlucky. COYR

GRIM added 17:44 - Sep 3 Not so good today. Perraud was struggling. Same old story with our 2 full backs getting caught playing to high up the pitch & leaving acres of space out wide. We needed Romeu today, he would have bossed that midfield. Elynoussi & Adam Armstrong ineffective. We need to find a position for Aribo, I can't really work out where he's playing, but he does work hard. We have to accept that this very young side needs time to gel & they can only get better. Still it's a more promising start to the season than most of us expected.

SanMarco added 20:15 - Sep 3 This and the Manure should have been frustrating 0-0s but in both we found a way to concede. I am still hopeful that this could be a decent season - the failure to sign a goal scorer will come back to haunt us on (hopefully not too many) occasions but we have more quality now I believe.

DPeps added 21:51 - Sep 3 Quite predictable. 3 games in a week is a lot for some of the players, especially against a well-organised team like wolves. To be fair to Ralph, if he'd have rotated the team we'd all be complaining, so the guy can't win 😂 We really needed to buy a goal scorer in the transfer window to make it perfect. It's not as if the club didn't try, though.

Block8 added 14:04 - Sep 4 We need to address the gaps behind the full backs, we sat a bit deeper against Chelsea and Leicester in these areas and it worked better. Wolves exploited this very well and maybe it could have been addressed at half time, poor Perraud not fully fit and working his socks off. With the system we now play we don't need to bomb on so much from full back perhaps? Not sure Diallo is the right fit for defensive midfield and sorry but I'm still to be convinced about Djenepo and whilst Ely does his bit defensively he is certainly lacking at present going forward! Should have got a point but didn't. Young Edozie looks like a prospect though!

JimmyMeliaPhD added 00:44 - Sep 5 we seem to have a central defence pair that is at least not embarrassing. But RH's tactics put them at risk in that the FBs push forward too far and leave gaps, and Diallo is no Romeu to do the fortifying. But most of all this f'ing manager, why can't he start his best 11 as a matter of routine every week. The strategy of playing possum will most often make the possum roadkill.
