Ignore low blocks, or the merits and failings of our players. If we'd chased the final half hour at wolves the way we did today, we would have win that game by a similar margin.

Spurs did sit in low block for the first half hour. We played quicker, tried to hit them early, even used overlaps we created things.

Raya was always looking to release the ball quickly. We hardly ever do that.

This was not a perfect performance. But the approach abd attitude was spot on. This is what we should be attempting to produce every week.

This team wins the league. I just fear we have left it too late
How unlike you to be so optimistic, Peter

Spurs gave us a lot of space in midfield. And paid the price.

What we don?t know is what would have happened had they pressed us better and denied us the space we had. Would we have kept trying to play, or lapsed back into safety, game management mode.

Chelsea will be a good test
