Sounds about right Jonty, thought Wolves were lucky to keep Dawson on should have had 2 yellows in 1st half
Just pure relief more than anything else - 4 goals away from home in a crunch 6 pointer, what psychological boost for the team - superb.

I think ref missed a fair bit....Rodrigo kicking ball away, shirt pull on Traore, wolves penalty shout, he even missed Otto challenge on Ayling, should have been a straight red straight away.
You thought we deserved to win? Not sure about that.
But for once this season everything went our way.
and long may it continue!

Penalty and shirt pull...................
Don't think he missed them just made the right call
To be honest I think the ref got all the major decisions right.
Red card obvious - Could have broke Aylings leg.
As for that VAR… well done to the ref for not being encouraged to overrule the 4th goal….Traore is built like a schitbrickhouse .. his shirt was being held by fingernails …if Traore had played for Leeds we’d have given him big time grief for not getting on with it. He’s had a shocker there.
Personally though, shirt pulls need eradicating from the game…. everyone does it….Start giving penalty’s every time it happens in the area, and it stops.
Substitutions were an interesting watch today…… was screaming at García to get Aaronssen off when Wolves got it back to 2-3….. he was woeful . Not the player to help a team under stress.
Wasn’t sure Summerville was the right call… he ain’t got a good record of helping the defence, but actually he did well down the left pressuring Wolves enough to cause issues.
Gracia…. Auto speller goes straight to Garcia!
Stats we're completely against us, refereeing decisions were apparently spot on minus the Dawson potential red. Huge win against the run of play but that's perfectly fine at this stage. No pressure on us going to Arsenal now, can look to play on there fear of throwing the title away.
Didn't think Dawson should have got a red. Ref had a good game.
Thought we were lucky to win that one, Wolves the better side for most of the game.
No idea what Meslier thought he was doing with the header, difficult to see from my living room but I thought on a slick surface the ball would probably have reached him. Roca probably thought so too. That said he had a fine game beyond that and at 23 years and 16 days, Illan Meslier is the youngest goalkeeper to reach 100 appearances in Premier League history. Hats off to him.
I thought Aronsson had one of his better games today. Lacks end product but a lot of running and making important tackles.
I have to say i thought Gracia got the suns spot on actually
Pleased to see Jack score again, a lot of people say Raphinha's goals kept us up last season, but Jack I think had 7 from the New Year on.
Rode our luck today, but it's 3 points in the bag...just got to keep Forest, Bournemouth and Southampton below us, I feel the others will be alright.

Well deserved for Ireland, looking good for the WC...shame about the sending off, ruined the game as a contest.
Shouldn't have expected Chelsea to do us a favour, they are awful
You beat me to it Outwood
This win doesnt half ease the pressure, 14th just eases the pressure so much.
Thought we’d stay for months, just got a young squad with plenty of talent, which needed abit of luck.
Bench looks so strong too
Went today and very stressful but a fine win not without its moments thought Wober and Koch were outstanding, say what you like about Orta but £15m for Max and Willy is good business, going forward middle of park worries me a bit of anything happens to either then it’s Darko or Arch, Adams is back in NY had an op and unlikely to play again this season, only Arsenal and Man City when i don’t realistically think we can get something, back home now and going for a welcome pint, have a good night all
Don, I hear you but I can't stand Orta. He's a grade A
tw 4 t. IMO. I did see the reports that Adams possibly
suffered a 3 tear strain. But club was being coy about it.
3 would mean Tyler's out rest of season. What you
posted seems to suggest that the reports were true.
Without Adams we are in a really tough spot.
Fantastic 3 points & sends us into the break with a timely boost both in regards to the league table & also confidence.
Personally thought we deserved the win. If it's viewed by anyone as "lucky" I personally couldn't care less. We've deserved more from plenty of games this season.
Great day 🙂
A bit of a downer hearing that Adams is likely to be out for the rest of the season but it could also bring out the best in Roca and Mckennie knowing the extra responsibility falls on their shoulders now.
We definitely have goals in the side and defensively we look like conceding the fewest goals in a season since our return to the EPL in 2020.
For me this result confirms my belief that by pure good fortune we have a very good coach that has identified our key weaknesses and by surrendering the bulk of possession to the opposition has actually made us a far more dangerous beast.
I would love us to get something at Arsenal but realisticly a narrow defeat is more likely and then I'm quite hopeful we can get to 38 points before we play Man City even without Adams.
