My sense however is even when we aren’t at our fluid best and conceding possession, we concede it where we want to concede it, we still control the game, and are very calm under pressure now. I was never concerned that Wolves would get back into this game….
I dunno, eyeballing 40 to 70 we still out xG them .5 to .2. On the rewatch seemed like we went to mid/low block and hit them on the counter, generating a number of decent attacking actions. Only slightly hairy bit was 61 to 67 when they got a couple of deep touches (oh kick across the box) and Saliba passed to Cunha.
Almost certainly some grading on a curve. I don’t think Wolves ever had a period where they were better or more dangerous. It is also not usually something you see from Arsenal at the best.
