Plus Ash and Terry

Ignore that though, it doesnt fit in with the "oh that was a stupid celebration only done by the portugese players" bullsh*t.

Terry I wouldn't say was involved, when I watched tonight it looked more like Terry went over to tell them to stop f**king about and get back on the field because it wasn't over yet. Perhaps remembering his own little run over to Carlo against Villa last year.

That was the thing I found most silly, it wasn't as if it were a 93rd minute winner. There was still a half hour to go. f**k off with the carry on and get your mind on keeping a clean sheet for the first time in two months.

Am I the only one who finds Luiz and Bosingwa bit annoying these days? When they have ball at their feet,they simply try to shrug the opponent player off instead of passing it quickly.

[ishangodbole]

Why does AVB takes Mata out when he knows Bosingwa will make a stupid mistake and we'll concede a goal?

Hutch's cross vs Stoke City was better than all crosses of Bosingwa.

Sam Hutchinson's fitness is the only thing that has kept him behind Bosingwa. We need Brana back soon.

Just saw the long highlights of the game and they were talking about Bossy's defending at BBC Sports and they very clearly pointed out how bad Bosingwa actually was in the game. Almost all the dangerous balls including the goal came because Jose didn't defend well enough. He was absolutely dreadful. I also remember Paulo being okay in the Villa game, he was subbed for Bossy and we concede two goals. Not saying they were Bossy's fault but you could draw conclusions. Those kind of performances can't happen.

The more I think of it the more I think we need bunch of players to make the team win. Don't know if we are going to buy that many during this window but at least in the summer...

The touchline celebration thing was grotesquely naff. I had to look the other way

I agree...very schoolboyish and it's not like we won the CL final or anything...we scored against Wolves!  I hope this doesn't become the norm or we'll be in for more negative press...the next thing is that AVB will have the 'circle of friends' statue on the touchline....'group hug when anyone gets injured'...I hope not

Well that was a tense match. It was blatantly obvious that Bosingwa was barely awake. His concentration was awful. Sick?
Passing was poor and slow.

I was in a constant state of f**king panic everytime wolves came near our goal, had a thrown in, corner, free kick etc. Our defence is all over the place.

If Wolves weren't so sh*te up front we would have lost another game.

My mate was pissing himself at my attack of verbal diarrhoea. Couldn't help myself we just needed the win so bad as fans and as a team.

Torres was okay but needs to work even harder to get into positions. Sometimes he hides. He will now get game time = match fitness and I reckon/hope will score a few.

I think we were lucky and the Portuguese speaking defenders need dropping!

He's just being Portuguesist!

A tongue-in-cheek reference to the media drivel about only the Potuguese players celebrating.  I stand by the fact that our defence should be reviewed by AVB as it is this which is costing us points imo.  Boswinga and Luiz are top of that review for me...
