Lopetegui tactical masterclass today, Lemina the deepest midfielder, Nunes forcing TAA back, Sarabia able to float & of course Neves more licence to run forward, even the timing of Moutinho/Jimenez coming on seemed near perfect. Media will focus on Liverpool, but Wolves were 👏

If you’re feeling disappointed tonight just remember, that was 1st league defeat since Oct 28th, 9 clear at the top, 11 clear of 3rd, 17 clear of 7th. They’ve earnt the right to have a few off games cut them some slack still a long way to go

Just a point on the pen not given, the referee gave a corner which suggests he thought Dier got the ball, VAR should surely then be telling him he didn’t. For clarity and accountability we should be allowed to hear the discussion in those moments, as either way it was an error

Football is odd at the best of times, but if you’d told me a few years ago Wolves would move out Coady, Neves, Moutinho, Raul & Adama in 1 window I’d have been stunned And yet I find myself somewhat excited for the next chapter, the next cycle. It may not work but it’s different

Re VAR, I still support the principle of it, but we seem to have lost sight of the element of the offside law being about preventing players from gaining an advantage, so many of these mm decisions are not advantages. Jonnys cross goes past 7 Liverpool defenders
