Difficult to call this one. Wolves are due something, they are an honest bunch and their fans give them great support at home. They will be up for our visit. But I also see us winning this. (I think.....)
Varane, Martinez, Shaw, Mainoo, Casemiro.. these are decent players, now fit (much, much rested some of them..) and available. This will (well, should..) make a difference. I don't expect us to concede many with these players available and selected. These players are all good on the ball, as is Dalot, and the level of our play should improve, markedly. Add Ericksen to that list too. SMT as a wildcard off the bench, so it is looking better. Casemiro does worry me, I think he's already looking at his next move. He's made his cash.
BUT
Upfront.. same old, same old to me. We lack the quality. I expect Garnacho to do his bit, he works hard and inspires others. Rasmus is beginning to tick over. But essentially, our foreward line are not up there with the best. This will be our frustration for the remainder of the season I feel. I can't see this changing. Rashford may get a few because he's been a naughty boy and wants to make a point.
But when I look at Spurs, with Son to return.. Newcastle look like a well-rested unit. Villa are better than us.. can we overtake them? I can't see it. We haven't the quality upfront and we don't have the manager to define a playing style, especially an attacking style, (rather than inspirational moments) that we can rely upon.
