The only positive to take from this game is that we got the job done and barely got out of first gear.
And normally you say that as a positive that we didn't need to get into second gear to win, but in this case I'm saying it as an indictment as we played awfully in large spells out there and against a better team we wouldn't be leaving that ground with any points at all.
Slot has a lot of stuff to fix and address starting with his lineup picks to start the game - like insisting and thinking Szoboslai is still a starter in this team. And we were just simply sloppy all over the place.
Just unforgivable.
I'd like to give a shout out to Macca who did a lot of clean up over Szobo's constant misplaced passes as well as a lot of gritty defensive cover for the back four. Maybe he gets my MOTM.
Him or Grav. But Grav lost major points with that last giveaway in a scoring position.
Wolves gifted us those three points - by giving away a penalty so close after they'd scored.
We didn't really outright win them.
But I'll take it.
Bring that kind of performance against City or Arsenal, and I'd say even a Villa or Chelsea and they'll wipe the floor with us.
