Wolves (A) PL Sun 15th December 14:00

Just a final observation, having watched Nuno’s post match press conference. What a gentleman that guy is. His team plays sparkling football and he seems a quality individual as well as being a very astute manager. I really hope Wolves make a run at the Europa League as they are just a joy to watch.

He played for Mourinho at Porto apparently, a lot of mutual respect, it seems.

How strange,Jan was run ragged the whole game by Traore,but won MOTM,I would guess Traore did for wolves and probably by most press.

Match of the day,showed how the winner unfurled,Traore ambled back in to the box,Jan asked Jose if he should go up as no one was left upfront for wolves,jose waved him up.And then Traore just walks around the area in a daze,completely unaware of Jan behind him,small margins,but crucial.How many times have we battered teams this year and not got the result,all the possession,all the attempts.Switch off for a second,its a cruel league.

He looked more mobile and up to the pace of the game, which was arguably faster than a lot of other games we've played in recently.

I wonder if it's just a matter of getting fit, then? He's had a rough go of it in the last year or so, I reckon it was always going to take time to get match fit.
