Bs4Red Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Bit better tonight against a toothless Wolves side, still think there is a long way to go. Think Baker will be key to our success this year as he keeps the balance. Korey and Marlon controlled midfield and very please to see Agard playing so well tonight, shows we don't need a target man. Flint was much better tonight, dominated Afobe, then put Le fondre in his pocket. Only downside for me was another extremely average performance from Freeman, think it's time for BR to regain that place! Hope we can beat Bolton Saturday and extend the gap from the bottom YOU REDS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Freeman couldn't do anything right with the ball first half, but he did work his socks off. Bar a couple of occasions where he was a bit lightweight in from the of the Dolman in the second half, I thought he was much better...only driving forward when there was space. He kept the ball moving (and simpler too) in the second half. His energy was fantastic tonight. Not at his best, but you can sometimes forgive a player if they put in the effort.

Much more like himself as the game progressed. Reid has some nice touches, but nowhere near Freeman in ability and energy IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 SC in his post match radio interview had it right when he said our build up play was a bit pedestrian, lacking tempo. When we did break with any pace Wolves were scared to death! I thought we put in a gutsy performance. You could tell Agard was battling hard for a starting place and in all Carey fairness (trademark) he deserves it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudolf Hucker Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 I thought that Jackett did us a huge favour by making his two halftime substitutions. Last year, Flint's defensive domination was helped by the propensity of League One teams to hit high balls to forwards - a tactic with which he is well equipped to handle but it's not seen so much in the Championship. The curious decision to replace Afobe with 34 year old Holt caused Wolves to look for his head - buns to an elephant for Flinty. I've never liked Holt as an individual (a gobby sod - I well remember his spat with Orr in front of the Dolman some years ago) but he scored for fun at Forest and Norwich however last night, looked like the LeGue One player he now is. Adam Le Fondre has enjoyed some good times in his career but I think those are now behind him - he was poor for Cardiff and hasn't yet proved a worthwhile investment for Wolves ... he looked extremely ordinary last night. Whilst Byrne didn't do much in the first half, I was pleased to see him replaced. Thanks for your help, Kenny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
