Player Ratings vs Wolves
News | admin | December 13, 2009 at 3:56 pm
Gomes (6) – Was nowhere for the goal. Somehow ended up collapsed in the opposite corner to where Doyle’s snuck in.
Corluka (6) - As with all the back four, defended well apart from one crucial moment.
Assou-Ekotto (6) - Was given the freedom of the left hand side but made only average use of it
Dawson (6) – Gave his all as ever, won’t be happy at being outjumped by Doyle for the goal
Bassong (7) - A good composed game. Brought the ball forward well a couple of times
Lennon (5) - Well marshalled by the Wolves defence, found it difficult to make space
Huddlestone (7) - Appeared our best chance of a goal for long periods
Palacios (6) – Good player that he is, more craft was probably required in this game than he naturally possesses
Kranjcar (6) - Skilful, willing and creative but like Lennon and Defoe rarely found enough space to cause any damage.
Keane (5) – Another poor game. First touch let him down time and again.
Defoe (5) – Never found any room, always had a Wolf up his arse.

Play Roman P up front with Modric. Kranjar on the left and Bentley on the right, thats if you have the balls Harry. Always take the sweats away from the baby to show him you mean business.
Otherwise, you will see the team fall like Hull did last year.
We were so poor it was frightenng and painful to watch at times.
Other teams will come to the Lane and do what Wolves did and double up on Lennon and Kranjcar. The opposition just have to keep our wingers quiet and the result is were clueless going forward.
Why o Why did Harry start with Keane and Defoe!?!?
Has he learnt nothing?
Jol tried and failed with this partnership as did Ramos, so why Harry believes it can work is beyond me. Keane is finished, he’s slow and poor and when he starts along side Defoe then Defoe becomes poor as well. As far as im concerned Harry ballsed this one up from the start.
I agree that he’s got potential , BUT he is not at all ready to be a starting 11 for a team that aspire to be top 4 in the greatest league in the world.
I think he showes every game (used to be only games against better teams, but showed against Wolves and Everton that it’s every game these days) that he is NOT intelligent enough, NOT creative enough, NOT fast enough, NOT consentrated enough to play at this level(yet).
AND for (fuc)Keane… I did make a phone call to the Devil, he said he would probably not be in Hell Uniteds Starting elleven, but he could have a place for him on the bench, I personally think we should make a deal with the man.
Is the Rumour Man British or did he slip into the country un-noticed?
Come on you Wolves…..!
Huddlestone 7 – Muddlesbum more like, he is too lazy and far to complacent. He was moaning about not being given a fair crack of the whip last season, this season he has started every game and where he should be imposing himself on the game and dictating play he strolls around thinking he is a big time Charlie. He needs either to be benched or left out of the squas to realise that you need to work to be in the team.
BAE is an absolute liability, with half hearted tackles and an attitude that stinks. His performance and attitude against Everton and his no show yesterday warrants him a spell out of the team.
harlie also plods through a game and neither full back plays with any urgency or great desire to get forward. I think that Hutton and Bale should be given a go, their defence side of the game needs to improve but given a run they will give us a lot more going forward and support their wide men. BAE is not a good defender anyway so swapping hin for Bale at least gives us an attacking threat.
Bassong looked componsed ??? He got bullied in the air, harried on the ground and whenever he gets the ball he fiddles around totally unsure of what to do. Another major weak link.
Dawson plays with heart and desire every week and he may lack certain attributes but he should be seen as a model for the likes of Huddlestone and some of the other posiers and fancy dans.
Nico tried to create and worked hard, although should have scored late on.
Wilson must have taken a bump on the head pior to Everton as his game has really struggled of late. Terrible passing having done the hard work of winning the ball back.
Lennon has surely been player of the season so far and just had an off day.
Keane can not do anything right and in a game that should have seen him chomping at the bit to impress, spent much of the time as always doing the easy things wrong and then looking for someone to blame or tring to argue with the ref for a non existent free kick.
Defoe had an off game and still has his offside problems and passing problems, ie doesnt stay onside and doesnt pass.
The positive was Modric back on the pitch.
The team seem to have a complacent lazy streak running through them and when you have BAE, Bassong, Huddlestone and Charlie all in the same team there is absolutely no drive and spirit.
Wednesday is a massive test and having thrown away winnable points its now time to turn in a performance and take 3 points when normally we would be content with 1.
We were sh1t yesterday, but we have only been shit for 2 or 3 games (bar villa).. Some players do need a change of scenery (Keane, Bentley, Hutton, Jenas). To compete with the top 4 we need a world class partner for Defoe (hate to say it but in Berbatoss mould) and a world class partner for Palacios in midfield. I hope dearly that the vibes being sent out by Levy in regards to lack of funds is a smoke screen. Its not the time for consolidation, its the time for two world calss players to be brought in!!!!!
Grow up ALL Spurs fans…. COYS!!!
We hardly ever win in the North West and Fulhan is now becoming a bogey team for us.
You boys came down here and done a grand job on us. Mick McCarthy should be credited for getting his tactics spot on with re to marking Lennon and Kranjcar out of the game. I said to my brothers that Wolves didnt come down here and do a Stoke, it wasnt a case we were unlucky. We got exactly what we deserved from that game and that was nothing.
Pity our own manager doesnt do his homework more often otherwise Defoe wouldnt have taken the penalty last weekend and Keane would never get near that pitch full stop.
