Up and down.

Should have been 1-0 down after 20 mins. Went in unlucky not to be 3-0 up.

Big difference between mins 1-22 and mins 23-45 is that we started winning the ball high up again. It's where the goal came from.

Hopefully Wolves tire a bit more.

Some tired legs out there-fortunate to be ahead. Kev and Doku have been excellent.

I think Pep mentioned Kova not being able to play twice in 3 days-tonight has shown that..

Our conditioning team leaves a lot to be desired. Other teams look fitter and stronger than us most weeks, even now when we are playing a game a week
 
We rode our luck for quite a while, and the woodwork has played very well again :)

The balance of the team doesn't seem quite right tonight, but all I'm worried about is the scoreboard!
 
We are winning, that’s the main positive of that 45mins.

Our line up just baffles me. Gundo has been invisible, tonight, last week, the week before, the month before that and so on. Why the frig is Marmoush wide right, to accommodate a geriatric ghost in the middle?

It’s incredible that we watch Gundo and KDB and Gundo is the one that is staying. KDB is up and down and arguably doesn’t deserve an extension but Gundo is all down with no upside whatsoever.

Doku is once again our only real threat.

Defence and midfield build up is far too slow…again.

Nunes has been awful. I’ve backed him in recent months but tonight he has been utter dog so far.

To be fair we’re playing a load of old, slow midfielders
It’s pep’s choice to, but it’s not conditioning
It’s balance
He is choosing experience over energy

We’ve had a run of playing form teams and I think we are doing well here. Nunez looks like the stick is getting to him tho.

We were pretty poor in the first half hour then pretty good for the last 15 minutes. Gvardiol having one if those nights where he is making me nervous. O’Reilly hasn’t been great defensively but he is finding some ridiculous positions up front. We have to feed Marmoush when he makes those runs. Nunes is the worst culprit, he always seems to want one touch too many.

I just think it’s a culmination of so many things-age, miles on the clock-we have decent options on the bench to freshen things up
