Very professional performance. Thought we controlled the game in large parts and never really felt in doubt despite Wolves having a few good efforts. Isak and Gordon in the form of their lives really helps. Agreed that Saturday will be tricky.

John - I too thought he must be offside, but no it was a terrific goal.

Joelinton isn't playing particularly well, but maybe he's only outstanding when the team needs that. Maybe Miley is a better option. He's not as strong but never gives the ball away. He looks ready for it.

Excellent this, Ed, a very enjoyable read. Cheers!

A comment on Isak's second: so good was Bruno's pass, and so brilliant was Isak's ability to find space between the centre halves, I was convinced, CONVINCED, he must have been offside. But no. It was just absolutely sublime.

Also, the amount of time for the VAR check on the third was embarrassing. Why they felt they needed to draw the lines was a joke.

Barnes will be out for 3-4 weeks from what I understand.

I worry that Joelinton continues to lose the ball and create challenges for us. I get he does other things but ball retention isn’t top of the list. Interesting game Saturday.
