he had Lascells in a head lock yet the ref seem to turn a blind eye to it - like most of the things that went on, out on the pitch
Having in back on the intenet, I think it was penalty, but there was one where there defender got away with the same on Mitrovic.
On the TV it definitely looked like it was Lascelles with his arms around the keeper to start with and that the keeper only hauled him down trying to escape from him holding him - a bit like the Mitrovic penalty against Chris Smalling last year.
I will take these scrappy wins but when we seem to be dominating early game we don't seem to be putting it to bed. Good vital win albeit very lucky in the end.
Couldn't make it to the game today due to me being on death's door (man flu). Did the fans give McLaren much ****?
That was really tough today, hoping we can keep picking up points in readiness for the last week in Feb when in the space of 7 days we are away to Brighton, Reading & Huddersfield. Make or break time..
Pleased to hear that. Sounded good on the stream, I'm saved my money and voice for Wolves on Saturday
Looked overall a good performance almost let down by poor finishing. 3-1 great chances ratio. Mitro is snatching at chances, but at least he helped lead the line well at times. Diame looked well up for it, especially early on. Ritchie played well again. Yedlin great - such an important header at the end. Hope Hayden is ok. We've no cover in midfield. Thanks Ashley for that. But so pleased that the team and fans have reacted positively. We so needed that win.
I think people expect us to turn up and be like Chelsea and simply blue teams away , however I don't understand this. Our best player is Dwight Gayle ffs We're not Brazil
A win is a win. We needed that to get back on track. Great atmosphere - not a very good performance again. We had a decent spell but were fairly fortunate in the end.
Yeah the win is what matters if Hayden is still fit for Wolves (he seems to be able to take a knock and be OK, don't think he's been injured yet), and if Gayle and Atsu are back in the team, we're looking much better.
