Fire away.

Could have made it safer much earlier but a thoroughly deserved victory.

Nuno in his after match interview stated that new players will be arriving in January.
 
Did they score at the end??
 
Comfortable win, really good performance. The whole team played well, Moutinho magnificent as always, Saiss hugely impressive, Donk massive improvement on Sunday's display and Traore is just superb and deservedly MOTM. Jota so badly needs a goal, so pleased Cutrone got his, very nice finish after superb work from Jonny and Neto.
 
The thing is, when it is edited my comment will look really weird! :icon_lol:
 
Moutinho really has to be one of the most intelligent players ever at Wolves - so composed, makes time for himself etc

Jota continues his sticky spell - 2 cracking stops from Rui - thought Traore had a few of the old brain farts.

Other than that a well-deserved, pretty routine win.
 
A class above West Ham all night.

Dendoncker was incredible.
 
Donck my MOTM.

Good overall performance, which we could have finished off a bit earlier I suppose!

So happy for Cutrone
 
Our fitness levels are unreal, another impressive performance.
 
Massive shout out to Donk who was as good tonight as he was poor on Sunday, good on him for bouncing back so strongly. Thoroughly deserved, think had West Ham scored we'd have extra gears to go through we were very good.
 
Big performance from Donk and Traore. No one less than a solid 7. Several an 8 and Donk 9.

West ham were poorer than I expected. Haller 45 million. Robbery.
 
Brilliant stuff. Thoroughly enjoying giving my brother stick. Poor bastard got up at stupid o clock for that!
 
West Ham tried to get going but we just didn't let them

Having Traore in the team is so good because he takes up two men constantly. When they leave him alone we play him in

Moutinho and Neves controlled the midfield

We restricted them to very few chances (reflected in xG) and took control for large swathes of the game, with and without the ball

So happy for Cutrone to score at the end
 
Controlled the game but makes me nervous to be so in control but only 1 goal up, nearly cacked me pants when Snotgrass got through.....Rui with a superb tackle though. Chuffed for Cutrone and Neto did well too. Seems to me we are tiring badly after 70 minutes last few games (Sheff apart), its inevitable I suppose, Nuno will need to trust the fringe players a bit more later this month. We are playing well atm....is it silly to be considering potential 4th place at this stage?

I was hoping villa would equalise
 
missed the first 30 but the rest of the game was an excellent performance

donk much improved from the last game. final ball wasn't there a few times, but a lot of really nice flowing football. in control, great watching for our side. happy to see cutrone nab a goal, brilliant build up on that play.

jota needs some confidence, starting to affect his decision making pretty consistently.
 
donk motm for me, the winning goal (the 2nd only happened cus they were pushing for an equalizer) and a superb performance defensively, 9 from me. moutinho and traore both with 8, mou just so solid defensively made so many interceptions, controlled the tempo, great passing, etc. traore just runs and runs, he actually had one of his poorest games for us this season (waylaid passes, got ball taken off him a few times) but still managed to draw fouls and yellows and defenders and make several great crosses. dont see how anybody is going to stop him, what a weapon to have, never dives what a class player. i dread what would happen to our attack if he got injured. jonny was great, 7.5, coady and saiss very solid 7, neves was ok, a few misplaced passes a few good ones, raul looked very tired especially second half, doc fairly anonymous, all three get 6, i thought jota was poor today as well, not as bad as past few games but not well.. 5 REALLY needs a goal to get the confidence up.
 
Traore was great defensively too, so quick and strong really helps
 
I thought we looked pretty energetic to the last. Really enjoyed the game we were fantastic apart from the Snodgrass chance was never worried at all.

For the type of things Adama attempts his success rate is massive. Still room for improvement but bloody hell I bet no defender fancies coming up against him.

Chance to rotate now in the EL as we can't guarantee winning the group with a victory, start Cutrone and Neto bring the big guns on if required but we dont want to lose the winning habit. We start games with so much more energy than in the early season.

MOTM Saiss/Donk/Mout nobody far behind Jota needs a goal but he's still got it
 
I love watching us when we play like that. I never thought we'd drop any points after Donk's opener and we should have added to that. Really enjoyed it - we were very comfortable indeed. Neves and Moutinho were outstanding, Traore always a threat, Jota and Raul both so unlucky not to score but my MOTM was Dendoncker. A colossal performance.

I'll never tire of saying this - we're such a good side.
