Very tidy defensive work from Mount. Good to see the work ethic to track back from him and will need that today given how efficiently wolves move the ball up the pitch.
Well, benching him for Pulisic is what makes no sense. Willian makes sense in this formation - it's clearly set up for the counter. But Mount is not that type of player.
Benching pulisic for pulisic certainly doesnt make sense Can see him being an impact sub and working against tiring legs later on may be a factor. Frank's substitution strategy still needs work.
Jorginho and Kova man.. they ********ing suck I’m sure we’ll see Pul on sooner than later. Our inability to string 3 passes together is baffling
I mean Mount. Mount is very good at pressing or getting into the box from spells of possession, but he's not useful running at players or countering, or doing particularly creative things. We're struggling to create ANYTHING.
It really is nice to have rudi back. Very tidy in his tackling and one of our better distributors today. Wolves really hustling and closing down space well making life difficult. Nice little flash of old willian to create space in the box before delivering a current willian quality row Z finish.
Brave of the keeper to try and save it with his head instead of the more traditional use of arms and hands.
Not really - we have an extra man in defense as opposed to attack, and several of our more advanced players are not especially great passers (Alonso, Dave, Mount, Abraham). It's not a shock we're struggling to pass the ball against a deep settled defense - this is what Wolves do. That said, Jorginho's passing today has been bad. I don't agree on Kovacic - he's been fine; trying to do too much if anything. Agreed on both counts. These three defenders are by far our best option - I think Tomori has been our best young player this year by far. (And that's before the goal or the hockey assist today.)
Mount fouled but falls to tammy for another strikers goal. Tomori deciding to bypass the blunt jorg/kova combo altogether now.
Lovely play again from Tomori. Tammy does his job. Always like the way that Tomori plays. Watched him a lot last season and he was the best player at Derby imho.
