Cardiff City V Wolves Match Thread
Last Seasons Programme
By Badge32
August 22 2015
Wolves head to the home of Cardiff City today for a live Sky TV game. The 5.15pm kick-Off will allow me time to get some sleep before getting up and joining you on here to discuss matters as they unfold.
Following Wednesday's disaster we are all praying that we can put things right today and start heading back in the right direction.

I don't think KJ was ever going to stick with Henry week in week out Ivy, & I suppose he wants to see what VLP can do on the right. I'm pleased to see Ojo getting a start as I'd like to see what he can do. No surprise to see Ikeme back in goal!

VLP has yet to convince me so far this season when he has come on. He has pace but his crossing is rubbish.

I've no problem with changes, especially after Wednesday, however VLP leaves me cold. He's one of those players who runs with his head down, a poor attribute for a winger. Add to that poor decision making, suboptimal passing ability and a shot like bambi then you begin to see my angst.
What can possibly happen? A VLP hatrick? LOL

Still too soon to give up the ghost Angry!
By the way, Morgan now has a Wolves scarf on which he didn't in the first half. Only an observation. Ian Rush looks bored sheetless

Meanwhile Sako wins it for Palace; what bliss.

Jackett to blame for the first goal, messing around with his goalkeepers means Ikeme felt he had a point to prove by charging out to try and punch the ball. Players like Dicko, Henry, Golbourne etc who are good players at this level but are in and out the side. I know he has his hands tied behind his back in terms of budget but the amount of changes he makes must have a effect on moral with half the team not knowing if they are going to be in the team one week to the next. Dicko is the biggest example, he'd be the first name on my team sheet, his pace and power is incredible so why is he the first to be dropped or subbed?

I fear it will get worse before it gets even the slightest bit better. I suppose we shouldn't be surprised considering we've spent no money, but the handling of the situation with McDonald and now Ikeme/Mariannez has made it worse.
Omens are not good for Kenny. Unless it changes dramatically I can see him gone by November, especially since Morgan will need someone to blame.

We might as well sell Afobe, the guy is talented but he sure knows it, so just let him go to the Prem as it certainly doesn't look like he'll get there with us. I thought his dropping back deep into midfield was disrespectful, as if to say I'm far too good for you and wasted up front so I'll come back and show you how it's done. But then again who over the age of 40 and isn't a Wolves fan see's us as a big club? We are just a stepping stone to any good player but I still don't like to see that kind of thing irrespective of how Morgan has knocked any expectations out of most of us.
