Wolves travel to Newcastle in hope of putting things right after the disaster of Tuesday's 4-0 drubbing to Barnsley. However things do look a little bleak for the away support as Newcastle are on a good run.

More wholesale changes i see from Zenga. Five from the starting lineup with Stearman, Price and Wallace not even makingthe bench despite starting in the week. It really is getting pathetic now with this constant chopping and changing.

Weird, Batth and Doherty both off separately changing their shorts.
both had black undershorts when they should be gold to match the shorts. stupid rule. Sky said we are the better side.
Costa shot from tight angle goes over the bar, a cross would've been a better idea
McInally is reporting for Sky. He said Toon have created very little except for that Ikeme save (apparently very good) in the last 2 minutes
Some dangerous crosses going across the box from the left hand side, worrying
Penalty appeal by Newcastle for an Iorfa handball turned down

Goal for wolves out of the blue just as Newcastle were improving. Newcastle well on top in possession stakes.

Newcastle keeper sloppy, nearly an own goal, out for a corner. Edwards shot saved, another corner.
Great double saves by Ikeme on a 1 on 1,
Newcastle appealing for a dubious penalty rightly not given.

Crap referee, bizarre red card to follow lots of silly yellows in the match.
Great performance yet again from Bodvarsson and a highly impressive debut from Saiss.
Unbelievable!! I doubt that many on this board would have dreamt of forecasting that result. I'm in Greece with my son - a Newcastle fan!!!
The madness of the Championship get outplayed by Burton and Barsnley at home then win 2-0 against one of the best team's and manager's the championship has seen.
I must admit i wasn't expecting this, but it does show is how little the loons on the mix know when they claim we need to play 2 upfront and their constant derogatory comments about Dave Edwards. I don't know how true it is but i saw a comment the other day about our win ratio with/without Edwards where it was claimed to be a lot better when he plays. He didn't even make the 18 against Barnsley in the week where we got thrashed yet was in the starting xi in our win today.
Dave Edwards is a decent player and get sick of the constant hatred towards him from the troll mob that seem to lurk on forums. Newcastle win 6-0, wolves lose 4-0 mid week yet wolves beat newcastle summing up the lottery of football as we see time and time again.
What it also illustrates is that our new signings are a cut above much of the dross that was here last season such as Saiss who has come in having an excellent game by all accounts. It emphasises if Zenga had the brains he was born with, he would have put this lineup out midweek instead of the 11 that got smashed 4 zip and wouldnt be surprised to seem him alter the starting eleven again next game meaning we go back to dropping more points. It's fair to say without the continual rotation, the starting eleven that played today would have far more points on the board

Funny old game football. Perhaps Zenga really does know what he's doing. Well done lads.
Thing is he'll probably change the lineup on Tuesday against Newcastle in the Cup game, and who would blame him? However no matter how well that team plays you would expect him to go back to this side next Saturday.
I would imagine changes will be made in midweek as it's a cup game and given most managers seem to do that it's not something that he can really be criticised for. However most normal managers would then revert back to the team that played today, barring injuries and suspensions, but with Zenga i thoroughly expect him to make these constant and needless changes.
great result, lets hope he sticks with the same team next sat, i'me not bothered about the cup, that's the time to give other's a game
I wouldnt be surprised to see him alter the starting 11 next league game I mean, who cares about the league cup.. he should make changes but will this eleven start next league game? Doubt it

Yes maybe he has hit on a way to play the forward talent from the start without leaving us weaker in defence.
One things for sure you cant just play 3 cloggers in midfield and hope to win you need at least one who can pass the ball (like we had with Mcdonald) maybe Saiss is the man.
