Not me.

A win at St James’ and against dirty Saudi money by playing a plan B, gives me more hope about our potential to be competitive in the League and challenging for Europe than dropping 2 points in a match we completely dominated due to a change of tactic by Wolves (and probably us not bringing on the right sub) - not sure why Baleba was taken off - I wasn’t there but there may have been signs of him stiffening up - or it was simply because Hürzeler thought as all of us did, we couldn’t be so stupid as to tail off to the extent we did? - over confidence and allowing Wolves to believe from about 55 mins into the match? But these are lessons we can learn.
....but don't seem to!

Couple of mins before Baleba went off he appeared to take a knock on his left foot as he raced back and toed a ball away from a Wolves player racing into our box. He was definitely limping after that.

I would have said Baleba and Welbeck were our 2 necessary subs. The rest we made tactically.

Interesting - sometimes these types of knocks can become more evident after the adrenaline has worn off but if you saw him limping, that definitely would have been noted from the dugout.

I was row L in the South stand so had a great view. He screwed his face up in pain too after it happened. Few minutes later he was off.

Not often I am really angry after a game (in recent years), but I am today.

Angriest I can remember being (and I wasn't even there) was after we were cheated away to Spurs.

At least we know who the village idiots are.

You 7 should hang your heads in shame! 😂
