Should have release the ball do Berwijn soon he received it. Berg was free and in a far better position to cross. It was a dumb idea with and horrible execution.

That's wasn't Bergwijn, it was Royal and with that in mind he made the right decision as Royal would have most probably kicked it in the stand.
Ok, that changes everything, excuse me. He took the right decision but bad execution!
Nailed on starter. Some good forward passes that weren't hit and hope over the top and wasn't scared to get stuck in.
Hope his fitness is good because we need 90 minutes out of him every game that means anything from here on.
He and Skipp together should connect our play so much better. Should.

Probably the only real highlight today. Looked decent and probably can't wait for Skipp to get alongside him.
Totally agree. Him and Skipp plus a third (box to box) come the summer. That’s quite a good midfield in a well drilled system.
Unless he got Lloris on the wine before kick off then no.
No. It was a comedy of errors.
When you watch the second goal have a look at the build up work from Wolves' stand out players. Davies puts in a killer pass to a player on the edge of the box and Winks has all the time in the world to throw the scorer off but wisely just stands there to let him shoot.

The only player that came out with any credit today, IMO - agree with those who think that he and Skippy should be our midfield going forward.
do like the look of him in there, nice and aggressive when he needs to be like all good cm's should be. basically in there on his own today, look forward to seeing him have an adequate partner in there with him.
what a great player bentancur!
Too loose and not always on the same wavelength as the team, you can see why Juve fans got frustrated, but also lots of quality and a player that makes a nuisance of himself. Keep at it.
He's really good but I'll echo some of the other on here about him needing to adapt to the speed of the game in England. But that will come with time.
I liked him taking over for Kane in the press and him and Hojbjerg worked well together.

can make some poor decisions on the ball, can also pull off some nice stuff. in terms of actual defending from that CDM spot i think hes class. gets across the ground quick and he looks fucking huge out there. makes some brilliant tackles and blocks. also his pressing today was fucking class.
his performance today was evidence of a player wanting to win!
he is the perfect partner for a deep lying playmaker, bentancur does all the graft then just gives it simple to the playmaker

A player like him, especially when still still in his career, will make mistakes because he’s committed on the ball and committed of the ball. But that’s fine, as from there also comes his best moments. He’s a midfielder who takes responsibility, which has the added benefit of galvanising those around him.
