If there’s one thing Jürgen has done well, it’s beat Wolves at Anfield in the Premier League.
I make it five straight wins since we returned to the top flight, so what better way to finish than seeing off the whipping boys one final time?
Unless…
Can our lads drag themselves off the canvas and somehow rediscover some of that early season form and togetherness to spoil the party?
Based on what I saw against City and Palace, unlikely. Too much back five tiki-taka and not nearly enough authority in either penalty area.
Still, stranger things have happened and I have to be honest, using the words of one former Liverpool legend, I will love it if we beat them. Love it.
Liverpool
I liked the Jürgen Klopp that entered Anfield however many years ago – the bespectacled rock n roll football guy – but I’m less keen on the one that’s leaving on Sunday.
Perhaps the job just gets to you and maybe that’s the reason he’s getting out, before he’s swallowed up completely, but his disposition is rather less sunny these days.
What you can’t deny is he’s made Liverpool a force and that team he assembled a few years back was probably one of my favourites of the Premier League era. While City exuded control they were just bulldozing through teams with relentless pressing and fast, incisive combination play. It was a brand of football that fans dream of seeing.
This current side is nowhere near that level, partly because they’re still relying on some of those legacy players that have seen their best years and partly because those coming in aren’t quite as good.
My expectancy is for them to fall back in the coming years while the new coach comes in and rebuilds the squad to his liking. I think it’s because of Klopp they’ve overachieved this season and made a good fist of things with this transitional group of players.
For Sunday of course, they still have more than enough to wipe the floor with us. I’ve been particularly impressed with Cody Gakpo in recent weeks and he looks like he might be one that could step up his level and become a force.
Our old buddy Jota has continued his wretched run of injuries this season but could feature against his former club. He’s another one they could do with keeping fit because when he’s on the pitch, he invariably scores goals.
Wolves
I really hope Gary reverts to something more tried and tested for this one and shows a bit more attacking adventure.
The above team or something similar with Bellegarde maybe instead of Sarabia is what I’m talking about. And get three proper defenders in the back three. Or go to a four and play an extra midfielder.
I’ll be annoyed if we just fart around with it at the back, lose the ball in horrendous areas and get smacked for a load of goals. The way we’ve played lately is the type of football Liverpool dream of coming up against so we have to adjust.
Whatever happens, Gary has done superbly this season and I hope he’s backed over the summer to improve this squad one way or another.
Predictions
Well done to sharmwolf, Wokywolf and PeteRobbo for correctly predicting the 1-3 defeat to Palace last time out.
What Sunday might come down to is whether they play it like an exhibition match or come out of the blocks like a Champion’s League semi-final to honour their beloved leader. I fear it might be the latter.
Everything tells me we’re going to get slotted (which is a pun I sadly won’t get to use in the years to come) but it’s my last ever preview and I can do what I want so 2-1 to the old gold.
As always, if you want to join in the Prediction League simply leave a comment below with your best guess. Apologies that the PL table has been wrong all season. I still fully intend to fix it and create a legacy page showing all of the tables for each year we’ve had the game.

I know there will be a few people that think I’m leaving the community in the lurch by shuttering the blog but fear not, I’ve started a forum on Discord where everyone can join, read, comment and be merry. The intent is that this will eventually be self sustaining so anyone can start a new thread but I’ll help give it a push start over the summer.

Thanks again for reading all my previews over the years. It’s been a pleasure.
Up The Wolves.
It’s the last ever prediction so all common sense goes out the window. Up the Wolves.
Thanks again to Thomas, both Bens and all the other contributors over the years.
Playing Liverpool, at Anfield, in Klopp’s last game! Do not need any additional reasons to predict a loss! Do not even have to factor that some of our boys may already be on the beach!
Agreed we need to go back to a “normal” defense with proper center-backs is a must.
Then again, we are the Wolves and on our day we can give any team a run for our money! Let us hope Sunday is one of them!
The final Wolves Blog. The final game in charge for Jurgen Klopp. The final time I put a bucket on my head and sing ” Summer breeze makes me feel fine. Blowin through the jasmine in my mind” by The Isley Brothers and almost certainly the final time some old git with a tartan shopping trolley wheels it over my foot in Asda. A lot of finality it seems. This weekend could get a turbo charged kick start , starting this evening when Six Fingers FC get a good thrashing at St Mary’s. The tears flowing down those horrid deck chair shirts would be a splendid sight. Then on to Sunday. Well. Henrietta the psychic slug, Tracy the basking shark and Next Door Neighbours Cat have been in conversation. HPS ” Well Tracy/ NDNC. What do you reckon to Sundays game at Anfield ? TBS ” I reckon a large pan of scouse will explode in a nearby terraced house and the fall out will get in the Liverpool goalies eye thus making him unsighted for a tame shot from Cunha which will trickle in to the net” NDNC ” Well I think an earth tremor caused by Doug McClures burrowing machine in nearby France will cause a slight tremor and put VVD off to cause a miskick and enough confusion in the Liverpool ranks that allows Hwang to nip in and score” . HPS ” Interesting view points there. As a renowned slug with psychic abilities my prediction is a 2-1 win to Wolves. The VAR camera which went missing during the 2023 FA Cup game at Anfield has again come up with a malfunction. NDNC has set a timer on all cameras so they explode just before kick off rendering VAR useless- so we now have a great chance of a level playing field and a WWFC win” SO there you have it. Henrietta the psychic slug. Tracy the basking shark and Next Door Neighbours Cat all have a Wolves win. It’s about time we won at Anfield without being robbed by VAR so I am going with Henrietta. Liverpool 1 WWFC 2.
‘Summer Breeze’
Got it on the jukebox Cheesey.
And there’s a bucket in the back garden if you’re ever down Wiltshire way.
Classic tune Doog. The complete sound of summer !
gonna miss you Cheese … we’ve always been in the same corner …. remember looking at some fish once in barbados and going on the the blog and asking if their behaviour was relevant to the forthcoming outcome of the next game …..
you know when you ask a question and when you get the answer you knew less than when you started …. well that’s you that is !
Absolute Class .,. in my mind , some pinkish dude drinking an excellent pint in somewhere like Gornal … spending his time taking the piss out of some Villa fan .
Gonna miss all of you
lovely , funny , dedicated Wolves supporters
in the memories of Clive
and Brommo …. in his tent on the M62
ONE LOVE BLOGGERS
UTW
AND
FOWB
Nice comments mate. I think I still owe you a pint from 2017. Is it the Lych Gate you go in for a pre match drink?.Maybe I will pop in before our first match in August and get you that pint back. My humour has been described as ‘totally random’. It is. And yeah but of a lefty in the old politics. Cheers any way old pal.
cheers to you mate …
yep you’ll find me in the lych …. hope you stick your head in mate
downstairs by the fire
big round table by the window…. don’t be a stranger . please !
What time you get in there? I am normally up Wolvo about 11 on a Saturday match day. 3 kick off then I pop off down the plough about 12 noon to meet the gang. So a window of about an hour there for a couple jars.
about 1 normally… takes us a few hours to get there… is the plough in town ?
Plough and Harrow. Is in the same road as The George Wallis and The Giffard but going away from town centre. Probably a 5 minute walk. It’s ok in there. Busy with Wolves fans but always 3 or 4 serving at bar so never hanging about too long.
Cheeseburger, over the years one of the highlights for me has been to return home from a long snooze on the best beach in the world [Panama City Beach ] in time to enjoy your weekly blabber. We haven`t always agreed — notably on the long term ambitions / commitment of Fosun, and the competence of Mr Shi, — but how good has it been to exchange views with a fellow dedicated fan of this great club in such a positive and friendly manner. You, above all, will be much missed.
One big regret has been the fact that I`m now too long in the tooth to travel back and forth to the UK — my birthplace, Dudley, has long been in my rear view mirror — so I`ve never been able to meet up with fellow bloggers. But I feel as if through the Blog I actually know many of the regular contributors. I`d like to thank everyone for sharing opinions in a way that has made supporting Wolves the best possible experience.
God bless and best wishes to all — and let`s continue to believe that under GON good times lie ahead.
PS My forecast for the summer is that out of the blue a major club, recognizing the massive ability of Silva to keep diving to such good effect [ !! ] will cough up 80 million for his signature, which will fund a massive input of high quality new players. Everyone can always dream.
Thank to Thomas etc for running the blog and the prediction league
Klopps last game in charge so brain says Livarpool but heart has it
Thanks for all your efforts in keeping this blog going Thomas. I haven’t contributed as much as I would like due to family commitments, but still read the blog with interest and hilarity when I can.
Hope the new Discord blog is half the success that this one has been over the years. UTW!
It’s Klopps last game and Wolves have the chance to spoil the party let’s try and play some attacking football not and not dilly dally with the ball in defence.
I know the result is probably only going to go one way, but I’m only ever going to predict a win for us in the final game of the prediction league. Thanks again Thomas. UTW
I’m hoping it works, but I’ve just set up for Discord and left a message.
We use it within the family to keep in touch and like it a lot, if you’re unfamiliar with it, I can say it’s well worth trying.
Thanks for setting it up Thomas, it has good possibilities
UTW
Done the same jazz. I think. .
I have too, but my Avatar needs some work done…
Let’s hope we can all make it work as well as this Blog.
You may or may not have noticed that over the last couple of seasons I have not registered a score prediction because I just couldn’t bring myself to predict a loss.
This time, it being the last ever match preview on The Wolves Blog, I have decided to do it.
In honour of all who have blogged, to those who just read, and in memory of those of us who are no longer with us.
Five for Clive!
I’m not fussed either way about Liverpool changing their coach tbh , in fact I don’t give a flying Chinese fart .
It was nice for their coach to say that in its current format, he would vote to scrap var so fair play to him , it’s pretty obvious that his chairman will go the other way if the vote even makes it past the minutes at the next meeting mind!
I am quite happy that my club are the ones to piss the premier league off too .
No doubt they were feeling happy with themselves and their proposal to introduce automated off side for next year to gloss over their failures, only to have to put it all on hold whilst wolves order a vote to scrap the whole thing.
I don’t think we have a chance of stopping var but at least we tried, and that means something to the fans who actually go to the games I think!
Who cares if we get shafted next season, the premier league is for the world wide tv audiences now anyway, until something else comes along.
As this is the last game I am going to predict the result, I would like to go out with a bang and predict a 1-4 win for the boys.
Let’s hope that they have enough cameras at the ground today and var don’t have to gift klopps his fair well 3 points.
Finally, a quick thanks to all you lovely peeps on this blog.
When I plan a trip back to blighty, it’s always with the wolves fixtures in mind, over recent years it’s been very difficult to get tickets but a couple of guys on this blog have gone over and above to help me get tickets, even though they didn’t know me from adam, stu wolf and lord twix . Thanks a million, proper blokes and proper wolves.
Also a shout out to matt( London wolves) for organising a zoom for a bunch of us for the black country derby ( don’t mention the score)
I will make it one day for a catch up and a beer , promise.
Thanks Thomas- Ben- Ben- and all you lot too
Come on you mighty wolves
For my final prediction, I have to pull out this old classic from Clive:
All good things come to an end.
Liverpool’s scoring streak.
Our lack of points against them over the last three years.
Our goal shy attacking.
Brompton’s cheating in the Prediction League.
So it shall come to pass tomorrow, a full Molineux will witness a famous “ I was there” victory over those arrogant scousers.
They will not play with their usual aplomb, thinking we are cannon fodder, and as my namesake used to say in every Dad’s Army episode “ They don’t like it up ‘em”
A famous, fabulous win for the Mighty Wanderers, to leave Citeh and Chelski quaking with trepidation.
Sarabia a doubt. Won’t be missed.
Would be great to spoil the Kop party but we won’t
FUCK VAR.
Fans want rid across the country but the clubs won’t get rid. Just shows how important the paying fans are to the clubs
Well.. here we are .. last match of the season .. and mega hugely sadly.. the last WOLVES BLOG …
You’ve still got the close season to change your mind mate .. alternatively I’ll buy the site off you offer is on the table .. !!
I’m going on Sunday.. and will give a super shout out for Marney, Cheesey, Dougie S, the DOOG , CfH, Brompton Wolf, London Wolves Loyal , Wolfstroker, Marin Wolf, Tom, Ben, Amanda, Whitley Wanderer, Scooped, Lowves, Stuwolf, Copenhagen Wolf, Franski, the “we’ve got Julen Lopetegui guy”, well pretty well everyone that’s enhanced my experience on this blog .. thank you all …
As for Sunday.. David Coote on VAR will become a WWFC legend by giving us a penalty because Liverpool had the audacity to come near our box .. and Chris Kavanagh will agree because of all the clangers he’s made over the past 5 years…
I don’t really care what team gets put out .. I know they’ll be electric given the support that’s going to be there .. and the Mickey taking of scousers in general …
Regrettably.. it’s when the curtains come around the season end … but we’ll enjoy it nonetheless.. oh .. as the great man would say (regardless) FOWB ..
Re VAR TWIX. I had a look at the ESPN VAR tables for 19/20 20/21 21/22 22/23 and 23/24. The highest we have ever finished is 7th from bottom of it. We have NEVER had a plus score (decisions in favour). The highest we ever got was minus 1. We finished bottom of it twice and achieved scores as low as minus 7 and so far this season minus 6 (where we are also bottom). Don’t let other. Fans tell you it happens to all of us. Wolves just never get a decision (well a contensius one) . I don’t expect any favours at Anfield (again).
Have I missed something.? wolvesblog is closing!
NOOooo.
This is a much more serious issue than how many goals we lose to Liverpool to tomorrow. If it’s true, I’ll miss it more than I’ll miss Klopp.
Thanks for having us Thomas, take care all.
forgot to say thanks Thomas , Ben and Ben ….
thanks for putting a door in our lives that we could open 24 7 … enter a room and talk Wolves good or bad to friends all over the world
Well done Lads !
we ll miss you
Thanks for the Discord link Thomas
I’ve had too many to try to start figuring it out right now but…
I will return!
Meantime yep I’m expecting to get gipped at Anfield but sod em and farewell Kloppy
It’s been a week of darkness about the Blog but with so many heartfelt tributes I’m very hopeful that some kind of resurrection is possible as part of the Light Cometh routine
Meantime here’s hoping that we use the coming months to reframe reload and relaunch the entire club ready for the coming year and raise our game to 2 points a match at least as a season average
If Villa can do it then why not us?
A Big bet on G O’N but hey why not?
Fellow bloggers and departed ones brilliant ex editors and assorted contributors… I wish those that can to have a brilliant summer
Hope Baggies lose 5-1 tomorrow Or even better at Wembley
Adios amigos
Ah well it’s been good to know you. Take care all.
oh when the saints go marching on
as the unelected ex Prime Minister whistled on his way to make some refugees day very unpleasant. i would even preferred the baggies a win, not to give that greasi a moments joy. but typically they couldn’t even get that right.
It’s hello and goodbye from scruffy,,and hope that a new blog can be set up again for start of next season by one or more of our fellow clever Wolves bloggers so we can all moan and praise everything Wolves in the future
And tomorrow the scousers, we owe them one, so it a good time to upset kloppy little party
Hi. I just wanted to drop a message here to thank the bloggers, as well as everyone who has contributed to the comments on this blog over the last 15 years.
I’ve not contributed at all myself, but I’ve been regularly following the posts and comments before, after, and in-between each game since 2009. It’s always been the first place I look for chatter about the Wolves, and I’m gonna miss it for sure, but it’s been great fun following along. Thanks for the good reading over the years.
Might as well drop a prediction in. Let’s wrap things up with a big W
Welcome Tyron. Better late than never. I look forward to reading more of your thoughts in future. On Discord.
Greetings,
Can I see us denying El Kloppmeister one last cheesy grin in front of some very emotional Scousers?
Get over it, you slags. The Toothy One is history.
As is Paul McCuntney who now has a £Billion personal security bill to pay.
The Diddy Dental Practice in Knotty Ash can wave ‘Tarra’ to its most lucrative customer, That’s four apprentice dental technicians out of work Monday.
The place is going to the dogs. It won’t be long before the whole City slides off into the Irish Sea, like some sick Zombie Atlantis.
Time to put the flip flop in to some fairy tale endings, and send the German home with nightmares. Heavy Metal? More like Gaye Bykers on Acid.
1 lv & COYW
Firstly, a huge thank you to all who put so much effort into running this blog; it’s seemed like a family affair over the years. It will be hugely missed by all no doubt.
Now, Sunday. It could be a whopping, or could we just suprise a lot of punters.
Wouldn’t a ‘Clive’ be awesome!!!
Let me attempt to offer a relatively sensible outcome. Score draw.
Someone else ought to continue Wolves blog ! and the name that pops up is …Dooggoder?
Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh……what a beautiful Saturday morning and a great way to start the weekend after Sandwell Town were smashed at St Mary’s last night. Looks like the weather might not be too bad either. Another season of Championship football for them and no Birmingham derby v Birmingham either. I was expecting to see loads of their hideous stripey shirts about around Sedgley this afternoon but thankfully now I doubt it. I can enjoy myself now without that putting me off my beer.
it would be a beautiful day even if it was pissing down after watching the game last night
We’re in for a tanking.
I’m embarrassed by my own prediction but that’s an indicator of how pissed off I feel. The end of an era.
Been predicting, badly, for so many years on this blog.
Can’t really believe its all over bar the shouting.
Goodbye everyone.
I’ve enjoyed it.
Always going to be tough with it being Klopps last game but add the inevitable VAR incident that will happen following our outburst it really is mission impossible.
Hopefully we go back to the shape / team that has served us well. So Santi in a back three Semedo and Ait Nouri wing backs to in centre mid and three up top
Enjoy your summers
I like your summary and your scorecast Matt and so I’m opting for the same myself.
Best wishes to you and all our fellow bloggers. Hope to see you all next season…….
I must admit, this news caught me out.
No more Wolves Blog?!
Seriously?!
I guess all things eventually come to an end. Good, bad, indifferent, or in this case, something precious, that, week in and week out, just makes life that little bit better.
I always looked forward to reading the match previews and post match analysis. They are superbly written and must have taken a significant amount of personal time.
Equally, contributions from the blog community demonstrate what a wonderful, knowledgeable and passionate group you are; one that I have been so fortunate to be a part of for many years.
So, without further ado, I would like to say thank you Thomas, Ben and Ben for creating and maintaining this superb blog and thank you to all those who have read and contributed.
I will truly miss it.
UTW
You’ve certainly done your part Muttleigh.. always a good view ..
You’re obviously a professional guy .. email Thomas and persuade him to sub let it out to me ..
Thank you blogger’s. Hope we spoil klippty Klopps party. Couldn’t get a ticket so will have to watch in the Blackmore Vale Inn, Marnhull. With the 3 die hard, never missed a match, home and away Liverpool ‘fans’ who’ve never even been to Liverpool it seems. Taking a bucket to throw up in and a box of tissues. Should help with the sickly love in and faux tears as Klippty dips a few pockets as he slimes across the Mersey. Score prediction for Clive.
KTF have a good summer.
Perfect weekend continues. BOLTON 0 OXFORD 2. CHEER UP JOHN MCGINLAY…………..
Oxford is The DOOGooders home DNA .. so yes .. come on you Spires is it ? .. or graduates..? Or clever sods .. ? Or Bamber Gascoyne .. your starter for ten ..
Where’s that merlot ..
It’s just the ‘U’s… yeah, exciting… just like Sutton, Cambridge and Colchester.
My home town and the first club I supported when Ron Atkinson was captain.
Good on ’em!
Oh .. btw .. does anyone think for a nano second that VAR will be scrapped.. no .. me neither .. there’ll be a bit of Sep Blatter money floating about ..
I agree about the outcome your Lordship, but I do think it’s great that it’s been raised by WWFC. The reaction from supporters of other clubs has been pretty positive – though nobody really expects it to go through.
But good on our club for raising it in probably the only official way open to it, and doing so in a perfectly correct and unemotional way, simply by stating facts.
Haven’t got a prediction right all season, but perhaps this is the day … Have to go for an unlikely win to say goodbye to Klopp, who I have always liked as a manager for his tactics and sense of humour.
Thanks for all the blogging. And well done the Wolves this season despite the last 11 game slump due in part to injuries to key people. If VAR hadn’t robbed us of 9 points throughout the season by my calculations we would have finished higher.
I hope we have a real go at them at Anfield after our timid approach at City. So I’m going for a 2-1 win!
We shall stop playing from the back NOW!!
And because of that and the fact that we shall have VAR totally on our side, we are going to absolutely paste the Reds 5-1.
This final game is dedicated to Clive and this blog.
COYMW!!!!
BOLTON : ‘We are the one and only Wanderers ‘. Fuck off. Only one Wanderers and that’s Wolves FC. Hope John McGinlay is crying in his hospitality box down Wembley. Fat Bolton bastard.
NEVER FORGET
I saw that damn silly sign in the crowd Cheesey. Totally deluded.
Humongous thanks to Thomas and the two Bens and to all you regular contributors to this stunning blog. So much better than the drivel delivered up by so called professional sports journalists and pundits. It has been simply wonderful to come on here and find so many fellow wolves eager to celebrate, commiserate or in extremis provide some balance and reasoning to a match or result. As ever though its the hope that kills us. Lets pray that VAR is up to giving something back to us tomorrow. I would just love it if we did them!
The wrath of var will be furiously set upon us for having the audacity to question it
We will be screwed tomorrow just so klopp has his perfect send off.
Football corruption everywhere 3 aussie players just been done for betting on yellow cards
FOWB
Many very heartfelt farewells to the blog in the previous comments although, hopefully, we’ll be treated to the actual last blog after this game as our esteemed hosts report on this difficult fixture. How good would it be, how fitting given our history of turning over the ‘big boys’, if the actual last blog was reporting our unlikely victory at Anfield.
Unlikely, yes. But strange forces will be at work on Sunday and apple carts can be very prone to being upset when the going gets tough. The story of our season is strewn with apples and it would be lovely to add some big juicy red ones to the pile.
Last match of the season. Spent the weekend so far with Liverpool fans, all gutted as I am the only one with a ticket for the game.
Will miss the blog even though I have not been a regular contributor. Have read it avidly before and after each game and made my prediction, never a loss though! Not surprising that my league position has been pretty poor each season.
And having met some fellow bloggers, I hope we can keep the contact going in whatever form it may take.
As to the prediction for today, well in honour of Clive who I never met but read his comments regularly.
I wonder if PGMOL will make an example of us for daring to step out of line? Nobody would be surprised if the arrogant pricks took it upon themselves to do that but it would be business as usual for us. Yawn….
It would be nice to finish on a high but I can’t honestly see where this is gonna come from. We don’t fare well at Anfield and when we do they steal it off us. Still 2-1 the Wolves with Toti getting his revenge and scoring the winner, one last hoorah and a GON tactical genius to spoil Klopp’s send off. UTW
It’s very sad to see the end of this great blog, I’ll miss it. Thank you Thomas for your hard work over so many years, it’s always been an entertaining and informative read. As to the game, it looks as if the odds are against us but it’s the final blog and I just can’t bring myself to predict a loss, so I’ll go for a draw.
Thanks for all your hard work on this blog ( the best Wolves blog by far in my opinion).
Today, I can’t see Wolves getting anything from this game ( famous last words, I know ).
The peculiar Faffing about at the back fundamentalism, even when pressed effectively by good teams, just does my brain in, and the muffled F…ing and blinding emanating from me this season has increased incrementally since Craig Dawson, who could pinpoint a cross field ball out to relieve our hedged in defenders, was injured.
I’m expecting a 4-1 loss as Liverpool “celebrate” Jurgen’s departure, but let’s hope I have got this so wrong.
I thought FFP rules were effective over a three year period for some reason and that we were free to spend more readily over the next season or so. I must be wrong…
The lack of movement on the refurb to The Steve Bull Stand with the lack of investment in the team to meet the initial promises by Fosun still concern me, although the political shenanigans of our betters may explain the reticence to invest a great amount. However Fosun have done us proud and have gifted us some wonderful times which will live long in the memory.
Whatever occurs over the close season I hope all have a great summer and come back refreshed and keen; players, management and fans alike.
Well we here in Liverpool.. and listening to all the Liverpool fans gibbing off and their expectancy to win 4-1 ..
stranger things have happened in football .. as Wolfstroker has alluded..
The fat lady has started to sing .. Wolves 5-1 …
Lovely to meet you both again today. Shame about the sending off.
Wouldn’t it be nice …
Enormous thanks to Thomas, Ben and Ben – and everyone that has contributed to this amazing blog over the years!
For an Aussie a long way from Wolverhampton, your comments and insights made me feel somehow closer to the action.
Final prediction ( coz I am usually a pessimist and contrary)
utw.
Absolutely gutted to learn that the blog is to be wound up- thank you for all your hard work over the years and we can but hope that ‘out of darkness cometh light’ with regard to an alternative medium for the bloggers?
With regard to todays game, I’m expecting nothing but a tonking, since Dawson was injured the defence has been poor and this is a clear position for strengthening.
No doubt VAR will be on best behaviour in view of Wolves’ calling their competence and fitness for purpose into question- unless, of course, we look like winning, then all their dark arts will be called up to deny us.
But- we are Wolves, let’s give them a game and confound the pundits. Narrow win with a parting goal from Pedro.
I’ve been useless this season in terms of predictions. So nothing to lose. A high-scoring draw.
One last time.
Think the refs going to be kavanarse,go figure
Can someone shut up Carragher please.
He is a poor commentator. Master of the bleeding obvious.
Far too loquacious.
LiVARpool strike again, their players hunt and foul in packs, wolves take one step wrong and its either a foul or a red card, ridiculous decisions.
And don’t forget we need to score TWO more goals than LiVARpool just to get a win.
What a VARce ,number of times a Wolves player is nearly crippled and they don’t even go to VAR in the past for far worse fouls .
Why do we bother,
Remember the Vinicius headbut’ on Kilman at Fulham. They gave a yellow and justified it by saying it was only a soft headbut’. Another fucking rule only applies to Wolves. I wish I could copy the 5 year VAR table from ESPN twitter Dale Johnson. You have basically got 11 clubs out of 13 in a range of about minus 2 to plus 4. Then you have Wolves on MINUS 17. It really is mind blowing. Some people saying it can only get worse next season now we are making a stand against VAR. How can it?
