Sibley slow to control the ball every time.  Makes sure his hair looks good though,

Knowing Warne, Collins will play lone striker and Brown will play left CB 👀

My word he's actually playing academy players? Who is in charge and what have you done with Paul Warne?

The only players benefiting from this will be Wolves U21's - unless of course Warne does include at least half of the U21's/U18's in his squad.
A competition without Premier League first teams but designed to strengthen Premier League first teams. 
I'm surprised we've sold 3000 tickets tbh.

I'm not torn.  It's an embarrassment and I'd play our U21'S.

So Paul Warne will be there then 

Aside from all the Rosenior vs Warne discourse (which is pretty boring), anyone else just really pleased that a top bloke who was nothing but brilliant with the fans seems to be doing really well in his career?

No shocks here, great manager and still young. Clowes made a huge mistake getting rid.

I do as well.

And Paul Warne says a draw feels like a win.
Lower league manager disappointed not to win. Warne says a draw feels like winning.
This isn't really the level of expectations I'd expect from us.

We could buy two strikers in January - this doesn't change the fact that most of our crosses are dire.

Can they offer more than Collins and Smith do currently? In my opinion they are only playing because they have experience, not because they are actually playing well. 
They won't get that chance whilst the manager favours seasoned pros. But this team needs pace, energy, the willingness to try things that youth brings.
The last headline young performance was Sibley under Cocu. He had experience he could have chose but he trusted him. Go back to Nigel trusting Bennett, who was so close to a dream debut goal.
I am just bored of seeing the same old players making zero impact in matches. If the young player gets it wrong, then comes the man management skills of the manager, in which Warne is meant to excel.

We tried one method until the 88th minute when instead of lobbing it in, we passed back inside to NML and he decided to shoot rather than passing back out wide for another cross.
We didn’t play badly. We were just far too predictable for 88 minutes.

Maybe Crewe are better than Northampton 

You've glossed over the tactical plan and used stats to define a 'manner of play'. On the surface, a high number of passes, shots and possession is good. However, are those passes on the edge of our own box, on the halfway line, or around their box? Are the shots causing any threat to the opposition, or are they hopeful shots from outside the packed area, or tame headers from aimless crosses?
It's the entire predictability of play. A pass is made to the edge of their box, but before he receives the ball, you already know he's going to take a touch, turn to the side of the pitch to the winger, who will dawdle on the ball a little bit and then eventually cross it high. The only player we have who shows any level of creativity on the edge of a packed opposition box (and can actually pull it off) is Bird. We need to spend a lot more time on the training ground to address this major issue in our play.
There were only 2 shots in the entire game where I felt we actually had a good quality shot on target - Collins when he was offside, and Hourihane's equaliser. Even Mendez-Laing's goal should have been easily saved by their keeper. It's not surprising when we line-up with players who have never been known as goalscorers. Bird and Smith have a combined 18 career goals. At this stage of their careers, Hourihane, Barkhuzien and Mendez-Laing will do well to hit that many between them this season. Whilst Washington has a decent minutes to goals ratio, he's the sort who will struggle against compact defences when playing as a lone forward.
The bench doesn't offer much threat either, with WIlson's 6 career goals, Ward averaging about 5 goals a season, Collins on the decline, and Sibley out of favour.

Today sums up our season, lack of quality in the final third.

Got back not long ago, absolutely battered then first half with possession but all we did was cross it to our smallest striker…
total domination with no end product and next minute we’re 2-0 Down and it’s too late to win, credit us for coming back so late on but all the domination in the world just to cross to no one will gets us nowhere… 
weird game papered over the cracks late on
