Mason's Mates vs Wolves - Sunday 16 May

[Bazali]

Coady MOM is a nonsense. Neville doing the usual give it to a fellow defender routine.

And not us

 

[matspur]

Great all around performance, best xG since the United win for any xG fans. I'd say Wolves played a large part in us looking so good but doesn't matter, a good win is a good win.

I think Lloris was only tested once, maybe twice? Some good blocks by Tanganga and Dier helped. Hojbjerg was solid, Lo Celso and Dele looked really good going forward. Kane and Bale looked like they could create something almost every time they had the ball.

Son was the only average player out there imo. He has seemed off the past few games.

Son looks out of sorts for sure

Mate, we won. My evening is an 8nfi It's My better world for it.

I could not give a flying fcuk about the performance.

Somehow and in our relative paucity of this season we can finish 6th.

Jusy shows what a good manager could do.

When we're playing such a poor team I'd like to see a bit better than what we got today. A win is a win and we deserved it, but I'll stand by what I said, we looked exactly what we are which is a very ordinary team, with a couple of wonderful players.

 

[Alli-Luya]

Shocking thread.

Well done the lads.

 

[Herclueless]

Carabao Cup mate?

He lost that so that we had a chance at top 4, everyone knows you can't have both...

 

[mummy]

Dele Alli's interview - he seems to have been infected with the Gareth Bale 'Yeah'.

 

[ShutUpPatrik]

Probably Pierre's best game in this half of the season tbh.

He truly deserved his goal.

 

[docomospur]

I would give VAR MOTM just for not showing up

 

[Gmspurs]

Ha......

Souness : "Jose is not the type of manager that won't play a player because he's fallen out with him......."

 

[Paul Gascoigne]

Does this qualify us for the European Super League ?

After all we have now beaten 3 ordinary teams !

And got a clean sheet with Dier in the team !

 

[Igula]

I didn't know wolves are bad this season. Weren't they good last season?

They relied a lot on individuals creating chances out of nothing, very much like us with Son and Kane under Jose.

With Jota leaving and Jimenez injured they no longer have those two saving them late in games. Silva might be good but as we saw today he is out of his depth right now. He isn't going to create goals out of nothing like Wolves need.

 

[1966]

Bit of a boring first half, better in the second, kept pressing and got the second goal.

Weird subs aside job done.

The subs weren't that weird considering the plan was clearly to run out the clock in possession. Wolves were so bad at winning the ball back that Mason, evidently correctly, assumed that he could see out the time with any team out there. And who doesn't love watching half an hour of aggressive keepball?

Pair of them not the sharpest pencils in the box

 

[deadleyledley]

I can’t believe people still defend Winks coz he’s ‘one of our own’.

I couldn’t give a shit if he was born in a Spurs shirt in white hart lane, and was a love child of Danny Blanchflower and Jimmy Greaves.

He is poop

Does this mean Winks and Blanchflower are related?

 

[Sir Archibald Crooks]

Ha......

Souness : "Jose is not the type of manager that won't play a player because he's fallen out with him......."

Dinosaurs sticking together.

Son was the only average player out there imo. He has seemed off the past few games.

He wasn't tested because their final pass or shot was often so poor, not because of any great defending by us. The Wolves of the last couple of seasons would probably have put a few past us today. Let's not forget today there were missing Jiminez, Neto, Podance... Basically like us missing Kane, Son and Bale.

 

[Paul Gascoigne]

However Dele had his best game, Hojbjerg was like his old self and Kane scored.

 

[RealCoolYid]

We all love beautiful passing triangles… but I am already sick of the Hojbjerg-Dier-Toby triangle.

That’s footballs Bermuda Triangle. Opposition players get lost in there .... but they seem to resurface in front of Hugo

oddly when winks gets caught in there he does totally disappear

it’s a worry but Ryan’s working on it

Yeh, they've gone backwards. We should take Neto off them and further that decline.
