Sure our two first goals were a little bit fortunate. But we still controlled the game and didnt let them get to many chances, while being dangerous on the counter ourselves. Easily deserved win.

1st 1 slightly, but they did hat we have done too often recently got caught on the break and didn't track, we earnt that luck. 

 

2nd wasn't lucky really, Murphy put in a perfect ball really that caused confusion and Gordon followed it up and benefited, good play all round on out part.

Wasn’t impressed first live sighting of who everyone was raving about pre-match. Neto? If anyone caught the eye it was their LB number 3. Although even he was done for the 3rd goal. Have praised O’Neil at Bournemouth and his time at Wolves but was very disappointed in them today. Just what we needed to get back on track at SJP.

On the subject of dark arts

Wolves were the total opposite. Never seen a nicer team up here all season. Trippier knocked it out cos he was injured. They gave it back to dubravka then trippier decided he needed subbed so dubravka hoyed it out and they give us the ball back again!!

 

Fuck that

Expand  

The first time I understood why they gave the ball back, was absolutely shocked they did it the second time

See I don't think the 2nd was was lucky at all, won the ball back, swift and direct build up play getting it forward quickly and then probably the most difficult type of cross to defend caused chaos. 

 

Murphy gets a lot of flack, but he's one of the only players who thinks get the ball in as early as possible, most wait for an overlap, hesitate or check their run

That a typo on my part, was meant to say it wasn't lucky for the 2nd goal

The sort of result we'd be getting if we'd even just had 4-5 out all season imo. Wasn't vintage but we were very good, had quality off the bench just to give us a second window at around 70 minutes which we've missed since about October. Top 6 is possible, top 7 very possible, roll on next season with a few more quality additions and Tonali.

I was thinking this last night, if you look at the respective run ins, I think 6th is ours to lose, top 5 probably just out of reach now.

Top 5’s definitely gone. We’d need one of Spurs or Villa to collapse on a huge level, e.g. losing four games on a run at least 

Expand  

It's not going to happen, but Villa have a really hard run in:

 

Tottenham (h)

West Ham (a)

Wolves (h)

Man City (a)

Brentford (h)

Arsenal (a)

Bournemouth (h)

Chelsea (h)

Brighton (a)

Liverpool (h)

Palace (a)

 

They also have European football in between them games.

Interesting, I reckon they could struggle in, would predict the following:

 

Spurs (h) - draw due to nerviness from both teams

West H (a)

Man City (a) - loss

Arsenal (a) - loss

Brighton (a) - draw at best

Liverpool (h) - draw at best

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. 7th would be a great achievement. I'm reluctant to thinking we've turned a corner after what happened post Villa.

Ait Nouri? He is very good going forward.
