Preston To Win
Wolves To Win
Draw
I wasn't at the match, which by all accounts was pretty dire, but I can see at least 3 positives in this .........
We didn't concede a goal in the first 15 mins, which we usually do.
We didn't concede a goal at ALL
and we picked up a point, wwhich we haven't done in yonks and away from home and against a side that seems to have been scoring at will and flying
Well done you Wolves
I think the Preston result was a good one, regardless of how we played. In League matches this season, we have never got the early goal to give us a platform to build on. The sad thing is that I can't see the situation changing in the near future. I was very pleased that PL gave Enobakare a run out. The Cavaleiro and Dicko partnership looks promising.
I wonder if PL will make many changes for the Owls match?
I realise it's early days for Lambert so I don't wish to be too negative, but as far as our defence is concerned I think P.L. needs to go 'window shopping' in January. If he's serious about taking Wolves back to the 'Prem' then, surely, he'll be aware that any chance of achieving that end with our current 'lot' will be way beyond his capability (or anyone else's come to that).![]()
From a PNE viewpoint you gave as good as you got particularly in the first half where i thought your team worked hard and closed us down limiting North End to very few chances. 2nd half wasnt much better in terms of outfield skills on display but both sides had a couple of half chances however i thought we had the pick of the bunch in 3 good chances which we didnt put away or at least get on target. I thought the penalty claim would have been harsh in that Vermijl went between 2 centre halves and i dont think he quite got to the ball. From your point of view at least your team played as a unit but I suspect at home you will need to show more appetite going forward but i suppose Lambert has to start with the basics and it will be interesting to see how you play in the next half dozen games particularly at home.
Good luck for the rest of the season !!!!
