Oh, and Minteh's passing was the worst aspect of the first half

Yeah - 6 games, 4 wins, 2 draws. He’s clearly a fraud.
Well, true at the time. Spurs being very non Spursy.

Steele rarely lets us down, especially passing.
I wonder if his game fell apart playing with that gash set of defenders?
um bongo molongo

This is about right I think. And a lot of players who haven’t played much recently tired in the second half, understandably. I think we’re also becoming clear on players we need to clear out: Igor, Moder, and we need to upgrade SteeleThe whole defensive unit given a rest, Ferdi getting minutes. Ferguson had a very good first half which is enormously encouraging and unfortunate not to get a goal. Baleba and Adingra both looking superb. As much as the second half was pretty poor, Wolves were gash and we gifted them both the goals. Cut those mistakes out and job's a good'un. I'm greatly enthused, even if seeing no midfield structure when we play is taking some getting use to

I'll be very pleased when they finally get DeZerbi ball out of their system, that second half reminded me of all the dross we endured in the back end of last season.
We all knew that last season, but RDZ too stubborn to admit that it was a case of getting away with it playing him for 15 games in 2022-23, and not a de Zerbi brilliant master-stroke.
TBF, the 'de Zerbi can do no wrong' brigade were equally blind.

We need to defend as a unit a bit more. Minteh and Enciso need to chase back if we lose the ball.
Defend together. Attack together.
Defend together. Attack together.

We were lucky wolves didn’t score with every counter with us having most the team left up the pitch. I know this is the risk of fabi ball but in the prem against good sides we will get dicked more often than not

There are some positives.
3 very good goals
No obvious injuries, though Minteh did walk off gingerly
Excellent performance by Baleba again. Very decent by Adingra and Hinsh. Ferdi and Wieffer with good cameos
The manager will now know for sure where the squad needs improvement
We're through
There are some negatives
This 8 changes type line up isn't going to get us past a top half PL side
Some calamitous losses of possession. I think every player on the team had at least one dreadful pass giving Wolves possession in a key area. Some players 3 or 4

With better strikers on they could have scored more with those incisive attacks.
Estupinan was outpaced many times and/or we seemingly had no cover for that
Hinsh as a defender too, whilst all the supertankers of Igor and Webster could resort to was impeding Wolves far superior athletes breaking through the middle.

Baleba and Wieffer are going to be awesome as a pairing in midfield.

true but we got lucky tbh
Was pleased when the team was announced - looked as if Hurzeler wasn't going down our traditional league cup line of picking a team to enable us to concentrate on the league.
Made heavy weather of it in the end though.

Could be.
