Man City

Since April 3, Wolves have scored four Premier League goals at Molineux, compared to Manchester City’s eight. In other words, as soon as Jack Grealish bundled in the opener before we’d finished contemplating Queen Elizabeth II’s reign, the game was done and dusted.

Sometimes it takes a big result to get the season going properly. The last three rickety performances have produced five points and that valuable first victory, which wasn’t a bad return given the ‘could have won, could have lost’ nature of those games.

I came away feeling very little disappointment at being totally outplayed by a team that operates at a level we’ll never get anywhere near reaching. At least most of […]

We’re well organised and defensively resilient, so that’s one important box ticked. Without that, it is mission […]
