Speaking of tactics - I'm beginning to understand MM's patience with Henry. It's a high risk strategy that could pay enormous dividends. I can see it now. The final minutes of the cup final. Henry gets possession on halfway. Instantly all the opposing players rush ahead to intercept his backpas

The worrying thing is that Mick actually bought him as a striker. He makes Doyle look like Messi such is his attacking style and prowess as a striker (Liverpool goal aside). I'd hazard a guess that shortly after his arrival Ward had blown Mick, meaning Mick had to find a spot for him in the te

'Unfortunately, we don't have 1 player in our 25 man squad who can do anything other than play the position they were brought up to play' May I present exhibit number 1 - Stephen Ward. Brought in as a striker and now (Mick's words, not mine) 'The best left back at the club'. __

The glaringly obvious difference between the teams being compared is that almost their entire 25 man squads are "complete" players than have the ability to defend, attack, pass, cross, head a ball and cover other players when they go wandering. Unfortunately, we don't have 1 player in our 25 ma

At the end of the day, I don't think it really matters how much the fans complain. Steve Morgan categorically stated at the start of the season that even if Wolves were relegated, Mick would remain the manager. End of as far as he's concerned. From: nswolves@googlegroups.com [mailto:nswolv
