The chastening defeat to Chelsea back in August kind of set the tone for the end of Gary O'Neil's stint as Wolves manager, playing our way in to trouble, unable to adapt to the obvious threats that they posed, not learning from the many errors being made. We looked a million miles away from the side that had completed a league double over Chelsea the season before.
Five months on and we're a little bit harder to beat but not much. Amid another incredibly difficult run, points look difficult to achieve but we must show more determination to grab some than we did on Wednesday in Newcastle. Some nice forward play, some decent defending, but when the opposition upped it a gear we looked lost, disorganised and when we made chances the effort deployed in creating them seemed to diminish our ability to finish them.
I dont expect much more on Monday, a closer game potentially, but the impression I have from the last two matches is that the players have it in their minds that they cant compete at this level now and that our battles will be won against the sides around us. Vitor needs to crush that and find a way to make them believe they can go to Stamford Bridge and put 4 past them as we did just under a year ago.
Goldi's prediction however is a 2-1 home win

Anyway they are not just known as Athletic Club now, they have had that name since 1902. Just were forced to take a break from it when Franco forced them to change their name

Talking Spain, reading that Real Madrid’s revenue last year was over £1b. The first club to reach that level. It’s a sport for big businesses nowadays

Everyone used to call them Athletic Madrid, then Athletico Madrid then Atletico Madrid. I often now hear Bayern Munich referred to as Bayern Munchen and Club Bruges as Club Brugge. Was it the EU that made us become woke and pretend to be multilingual. We’ll be calling Wrexham, Wrecsam soon

Love listening to commentators butcher the words Paris St. Germain. You get the hybrid (phonetic) Pariss San German (soft G emphasis on the a as in apple).
Then there's the ones who think they can speak French and do the Paree San German thing which often sounds like "Barry, Stan's yer man".
And the ones who dont like to sound poncy so give it the Parriss Sant Jer Man.
