To be honest I'm not sure how that can be considered a success in any way.
Yes you scored four against them but West Brom and Man U scored five passed them just a few weeks ago and that was without conceding more than one goal.
You had an outright collapse against the worst team in the league. I would personally be embarrassed if that happened to us against Doncaster or Coventry.

We went with the 3-4-3 for the first 30 odd mins and were 4-1 up. It then switched to a 4-3-3 but had Caulker at right back and Orlandi at left back.
For that first half hour or so it looked like it was going to end up about 12-6![]()
At half time Taylor came on for Orlandi (who was mom at that point).
Matt Jarvis killed us down our right side second half especially as Caulker was stuck out there and demonstrated that while he is a quality centre back, he is no right back.
The experiment worked in as much as it showed that with the 3-4-3 we were hugely creative and scored 4 goals. It did leave us very exposed out wide at the back though. It was a success in that is showed that it can be used as an option when chasing a game if behind.

Chasing a game against a side that had already been relegated, has been on the worst run of form in the top flight and hadn't scored four goals in a match in god knows how long.
Don't get me wrong, I understand the reasoning but I just don't think Wolves are the best side to base formation success around.

No, because it wasn't 4-1 at Peterborough at all. Not at all.
Everyone here other than you Jacks knew what the reference was. Sorry, but I target my posts to our fans, I don't really feel I should have to spell out in very small words everything for the benefit of visitors.

Basic English comprehension / literacy might help you.
Your point was relating to the playoffs.
My point was relating to an individual match.
I realise the fact that different posts have different contexts might be a concept that causes several neural synapses in that head of yours to spontaneously combust, leading to stroke like symptoms, but do please try to educate yourself. Unless your goal in life is a McJob near your stadium.
