Some of these players don’t realise they’re playing a derby (well the closest thing we have of such a thing).  McGinn aside there is no aggression.  Buendia non existent.  That save at the end was world class. 

The 2nd half needs to be much much better.

Hope it’s another rope a dope like the Leeds game.

They are battling hard and Kavanagh has completely lost control!

Creating very little again. Malen doesn’t make the runs into channels that we need to open up space. They’re winning the physical battle too. Really poor half.

Changes at half time hopefully. We’ve created nothing and conceded sloppy chances.

I'd get Buendia and Digne off at HT.

don’t be dramatic, wolves can hardly keep the ball.

And yet had the best chances

I’ll take a dozen entries into the final third over two flukey chances.

I won't take our keeper making great saves over theirs sitting in a deck chair.

Don’t be dramatic

very under par , passing in the final  third poor , weak in midfield and sloppy . Emi has kept us in it .  Onana needs to come on , Buendia  needs to come off.   Malen has made good runs but the passing  not good enough.  Ref pretty awful.   maybe Maatsen for Luca too .         Im sure we will sort it .

Outrageous save that from Emi, he even managed to push it away on the way down. What a keeper.

We were a bit one paced across the midfield in that half.  Could do with Onana's athleticism and physicality in there 2nd half.

And yet it's true, Emi had to make a couple of cracking saves, Johnstone had to catch a couple of non threatening long shots. Considering they haven't won all season and we're trying to go 3rd it was a poor half.

They should be getting pelters at half time. That was shite and completely lacking any intensity. World class save by Martinez keeps us level at ht.

Hopefully a kick up the arse given at the interval and a much better second half to follow.

Brilliant, wasn't it? Unlike our performance! Wolves playing OK.
