Yeah, physically I don’t think I’ve seen him impose himself like that before. He’s learning from Bruno and Big Jow on how to use his body to either draw fouls or shrug people off with ease

He’s fucking class, such a shame he’s at the tail end of his career. We need to get a quality young right back in who he can help mould before he hangs up his boots. The one thing you can’t replicate easily is his ability to deliver a dead ball into a dangerous area accurately. It always gives us a great option

We weren’t at our best today, with a different manager we could have wilted easily after misplacing a bunch of passes and getting caught several times but our energy levels were fantastic throughout and we continued to play aggressively on the counter. This man is the best thing that’s happened to this club since Keegan

Not a vintage Bruno game, but a great goal. He’s probably suffering with newborn sleep starting to turn to shit

Was great to see the other lads so happy for him

Thought he was too complacent on the ball a fair few times, lucky we were against poor attacking opposition

Really happy he got his goal even though it wasn’t a clean strike. Thought he was overall our best player on the pitch today

Strange game like, we played some really nice balls in behind and it was great to see Wood and Willock bag goals but it felt quite disjointed all game long. Not too fussed though, we had a lot more quality than them and it showed in the end

Our passing in transition and midfield generally has been really poor. We did manage to turn it around a bit after half an hour but we need to control the game a lot better in the second half

Willock’s touch and little flicks + runs have been very classy today

I thought Everton would be fine because they have a good team spirit and very supportive home crowd. However, if they don’t start finding some goals they’re going to get sucked into it. There’s nowhere near enough quality in that first 11 to be comfortable. Villa will be fine now Emery’s there, they’ve got a top 10 squad I’d say, or top 12 at worst

I mean, when he’s forced to he plays lovely assists but if he has the option, he tries to go for it himself

I’d be worried if I was an Everton fan, they’ve got so few goals in their side and they’re not even that solid at the back either

Outstanding goal all round

I know Maddison is a great player but he’s pretty selfish on the ball. Not sure I want a player who wants to try and do it mostly himself

This game has been full of awful finishing, save for that incredible Tielemans goal

Why does this happen every single time? Do they wheel the same sculptor out?

Fuck off, that is an absurd finish

Everton’s defence and midfield have been completely overrun here. Tarkowski’s made several errors, I like McNeill though

Yup

I love 76-83 to be honest

Big appointment, should manage to turn things around fairly easily with the players Wolves have, even accounting for their injuries. I read a great thread on Twitter the other day though about how colossally badly run Wolves is so he’ll probably have to overhaul a bunch of things

It’s not just the fact they’re good positionally, good in the air and on set pieces, it’s that they’re both so good with the ball. How many teams in the PL have a player who can drive with the ball like Schar or spray passes like Botman? On top of everything else, just pure class

What causes a good goalkeeper to decline? Is it to do with decision making more than anything else? Because athleticism shouldn’t affect things until quite late on in someone’s career

Not even surprising that Messi is over a point ahead of most of the best 11
