Bentancur and Kulusevski good. The rest uninspiring. Tactical approach is off again way too passive we should be pinning Wolves in.

Another season of Sanchez, Davies, Dier... and Emerson. We're never going to win anything until they're replaced by first team players. It's one thing to spend 100m on squad players, but we still have the same deficiencies we've had for years. Can only hope that the good start to our rebuild continues in the next few windows.

Like Chelsea, that's as bad a first half performance I've seen in the last couple of years. On the upside, Wolves haven't been sharp up top and we've got plenty of time to get something from this. Conte really needs to start ringing the changes, though.

Honestly, not sure this system works for us.

Two in midfield who are immobile.

Wingbacks who offer no attacking threat on the right.

No ball playing CBs.
I get the points but interesting that the system seemed to really work at the end of last season. Just think Conte can not play same same all the time and needs to be more clever depending on the opponent.

I’d bring on richarlison in addition to the front 3, end of the day wolves are there typical boring selves with a deep defence . We need another attacking option

Aimless in attack, lacking purpose going forward, skittish in possession.

I cant explain it, but its not a lot of fun to watch, thats for sure.

Why should we be surprised? Weve always played this way, outplayed in midfield for almost every game, regardless who the manager is, season after season, only for son or kane's goals to save us.

Nothing new here, and evne with new reinforcements, we still play the same way.

We had a nice spell for like 5 mins! Around the 20 min mark and apart from that have been sloppy and lethargic! Sanchez has been poor but Dier and his distribution haven’t been much better.

Every team is going to do this to us this season. 3 in midfield and a false 9. 4 vs 2 in midfield means we never have the ball.

Having said that I don't know why Harry Kane has made absolutely no attempt to drop deep and lose his marker.
And this is bad by Conte, we saw this very early against Chelsea, and we see it again. 5 subs mean we can adjust early, but we are riding our luck instead. Bentancur and PEH looks way of it as they are outnumbered

Lead in our boots and our arses again. Most of them can barely muster a run, for what reason who knows.

Looked really shaky and lacking in any precision quality or intensity across the team. Sanchez and Perisic look rusty, the midfield is getting outnumbered again and Wolves always have a spare man, whilst the front three again have been quite simply dog turd (two and a half games now for Kane and Son) and you can't do anything if they don't show up.

We have got to buck our ideas up or we will get done over. Wolves only really had a few moments in that half, but you could see a bloody nose coming.

There's no way Son comes off at HT no matter how poorly he's playing because if he gets half a chance he puts it away. Same for Kane.

But I think if it doesn't improve 10 minutes into the half its a different story.

They all look absolutely knackered. I thought this whole run till you throw up in pre season is meant to build stamina, they look like they’ve barely got an ounce of energy between them.

Son so poor again,needs to find his form asap. We look lead footed, need to get control of the ball, small bit of success near end with Kulu dropping into the middle.
Some things in life never change,taxes and Sanchez making the simple things look difficult, just have no faith in him and think opposition teams are all too well aware of his frailties.
