    Wolves haven’t been a push over. They already beat City and Spurs. We got to comfortable in the second half

      2-0 most dangerous lead.

      We need to work on that complacency trickling in again, but in yesteryears we might have fallen apart after that goal. We got grit now.

      I have a soft spot for Wolves, I’m actually kind of glad they’ll be fine this season.

        I feel what we see as complacency is the style of play that Arteta is trying to implement. Remember the days of tiki taka? I think Arteta is trying to replicate that style of control into our style and into the squad.

        While it may come across as boring, slow, or complacent I feel like the team is playing (or trying to) the way Arteta is asking of them. Zinny like errors will obviously happen with this style of play, but the defensive stats don’t lie.

        I’m fine if we don’t win a beauty pageant with our style of play but if it makes us Premier League title challengers and allows us to make deep runs into the CL then sign me up.

        I don’t think the Tomi sub can be overlooked here. White is my favourite player, but the cohesion dropped a bit when the change was made. always the way when things don’t go quite according to plan.

        I honestly thought they’d be much worse than they are.

        Can’t have a soft spot for them myself though. That Martinelli double yellow still stings.

    Overall a great game for us, and I felt like it was a solid 9/10 performance had Zinny not made a massive blunder which led to a goal.

    Trossard in the LCM role really gives us a little something extra in the attacking third and I hope to see him there more against teams who park the bus.

    Had the ball bounced the other way we easily could have won 4-0 but wolves have been a challenging team lately so I’ll take the two one victory with a big smile on my face

      Zinny was still my MOTM in spite of the mistake. Such a great game from him. Great game overall.

        Don’t get me wrong, he played well and is vital to our success.

    Think this is the first time in a while that I’ve felt like Saka was our MOTM.

    I was hoping didn’t have to buttclench today 😁 Good first half, second half was getting a bit stale for a bit.

    God I hope it was just Tomi tapping out and not injured…I would rest him for Luton and let Benny do his thing.

    Can someone tell me some thoughts on Trossard at the left 8?

      I don’t think it’s his best position. He doesn’t get as involved defensively as some of our other options there in my opinion, and also isn’t as free to make those super incisive movements we see him make when he plays across the front. In saying that, he is still very very good.
