The midfield situation is a full on crisis now. Wolves’ new manager very obviously targeted it. They didn’t run down the flanks, they ran down Main Street. And it worked, again and again. If they’d had a finisher we would have been slaughtered. If they’d had a Vardi or Ings type, they’d have been a couple goals up after the first half.
And I’m not surprised. Our midfield isn’t ordinary, its much worse than that. it’s legitimately shit. Fred is a joke. Not even a midtable level player. Matic with one leg would still be better, at least he has a brain and some composure.
The midfield is so bad, with no potential even to be serviceable, that it’s hard to trust that our coaching staff have a clue.
We don’t even need an amazing midfield. Our attacking players are excellent, defense is looking good. We could be real contenders just with a decent but unspectacular midfield. But we’re far from “decent”.

Spot on. Beek must have really done something to piss Ole off. Even Garner, he should have been games over Fred. Fred is Championship standard he's a terrible player.bman2 wrote: ↑2 years ago The midfield situation is a full on crisis now. Wolves’ new manager very obviously targeted it.

Not dealing with the midfield is negligent.

Cleary unbalanced but no doubt about the world class talent added. Big pressure on Ole.

Beek’s agent has now said that he’d arranged a move to Everton but United wouldn’t allow it. I don’t get that at all. Ole is clearly never going to play him. Why not take the money? Why fill the squad with dissatisfied players? That can’t be good for group morale. And you’re just letting the player’s value dwindle down to nothing.
Yeah it’s mad. We’ve spent £500M under Ole, which I think might be more than any other club out there. But none of it has gone to midfield.brianofnazarethffs wrote: ↑2 years ago Cleary unbalanced but no doubt about the world class talent added. Big pressure on Ole.

Yeah but Ole seems to think he’s a pure 10.fat maradona wrote: ↑2 years agoWhat you talkin’ bout bman…..£40m was spent on VDB…..bman2 wrote: ↑2 years agoYeah it’s mad.
