Absolutely. Regardless of the final score, if we play like this in the second half I'll be happy

Boys did us proud in that first half. Hopefully some luck and we have a chance of beating this lot.

Really proud of that first half. We should be winning from mve chance . May regret it but got to be happy with the performance. Don't tell me 352 can't work

Good half, should be ahead, we look comfortably the better side.

Sheaf makes such a difference, Wright playing well, MVE looks decent at right wing.

We know Simms was a shocker but that’s been a really entertaining good account of ourselves in that half

No he’s just not as good as O Hare and that’s why one will still be struggling to play in the championship at 28 and the other will be picking his options at 25

It’s not even a debate who is the better number 10

Shame that means you struggle to do anything other than point out things he gets wrong / don’t work.

O’Hare is better for me as well, but Palmer has had a decent half there.

Happy with that so far. Obviously would have loved us to put one of those chances away but we've definitely not embarrassed ourselves

Got to be honest, pre-match I feared us being 3, 4 or worse down by half time and getting an absolute hiding

Good half. Some crisp passing. A lot of players giving good accounts of themselves. Eccles getting it past the first man on a corner.

A lot of positives. We can do this.

What a fantastic half , all playing well and really going at a very good Premier League side . A touch more composure and we could be in front but we’ve been lucky with a couple of Wolves chances so happy so far

Excellent half, should be winning this. I expect a different Wolves second half. We need to score first to win this I think.

Cracking performance first half. Taking no risks at the back and hoofing it up the field. They look quality coming forwards but we don't look bad ourselves.

The surprising thing for me is we don't look out of our depth. I've watched some Sheffield and Luton matches and they do look like they're in the wrong league.

Without wishing to cause a row I think Palmer has been hot and cold.

Still nothing to fear. Could be going in 3-1 up on a different day. Palmer has been excellent going forwards, would love to see Wright tucking in a bit more and encouraging Bidwell up beyond him. We’ve got every chance here though, turns out Gary O’Neil isn’t actually the greatest manager in history.

Good half that. Simms and Sheaf absolutely outstanding. So unlucky not to be ahead.

Apart from Ait-Nouri I'd say we have looked better to a man. Shame about the miss but may have been disallowed by VAR

So you genuinely don’t think he hasn’t had good moments in this game at all ?

We have been brilliant. Whatever happens now maybe this will give us belief for the run in

Both sides have had some golden chances. Semedo should have scored.
0-0 a good reflection

Think getting 15m for sheaf won't be an issue. I'm sure people will be watching on and impressed so far.

Think we just edged that. Eccles having a good game in the centre. How did Simms miss that?

Excellent half for us that. MVE chance was the one assuming Simms would’ve been ruled out. Can’t see us getting as much ball second half but here’s hoping.

Really entertaining open game and we’re playing very well. Simms’ miss was atrocious but he’s having a very good game overall. Palmer’s final ball leaves a lot to be desired but he’s causing them problems - he’ll be spent soon, so have him go hell for leather for 10/15 and then bring on Torp - we could do with a set piece threat.

Latibeaudiere looks like the weak link but it feels like a game where you will need more than one goal to win it.

Commentators crack me up! We have had 4 clearcut chances to their 1 and they say at the end if 1/2 time it was pretty even? Robbins has got this just right by the look of it! Just hope he understands what Wolves are going to change for the 2nd half.
