Really poor quality game. At least we got the three points this time around though

A patched up team that's out if form. Win and clean sheet That will do. Not pretty and let's never speak of this again

Something about Dutch managers and their style of play. We was shocking.

For all their possession, Burnley are the least threatening team we’ll play all season. Not a lot more to say about that match. It was grim.

Important win. Evan was brilliant. So was Fernandes. Very good game from Mejbri, McTominay and Casemiro.

Poor result and performance. I'll take three points but 1-0 is not good enough.

Win was the most important thing. Huge 3 points.

Thought we were relatively good in the second half all things considered. Burnley barely threatened us.

Very fortunate to win that. Another Wolves game where we were shite

Ten Hag ain't the one

Previously, Rashford wasted every attacking chances, now Hojlund AND Rashford waste every attacking chance. They're working together

No coincidence that things calmed down as soon as Varane came on

I'm incredibly pleased that we managed to scrape a win against newly promoted Burnley.

That could've gone either way. From Burnley scoring in the first half to that last minute free kick. And we bring on our first and only non emergency sub at 87 minutes when the team are knackered and McTominay and Rashford have been giving the ball away.

At least it looks like Ten Hag has the players on his side though, which is incredibly positive.

We look like a mid table team at best. At least we've picked up the three points tonight.

Great goal. Important win. Evans looked better than against Arsenal... Hannibal looked better than McTom

Everything else needs a lot of work

A very workmanlike performance, there was little quality, aside from the goal, but at least we put a shift in.

Literally nothing good to say about the game. I'm seriously starting to have my doubts about ten hag, the football is absolutely shit.

Scraped by 0-1 with an "individual moment" goal against Burnley who had a higher xG, more possession, and generally were ahead statistically throughout the game. A win's a win, but if we were to rewind time and replay that game ten times, I don't even think we'd have won five of them.

Very unconvincing performance. This team is still miles away from even the most reasonable expectations. Awful performances by a majority of players. I'd be more surprised if we win our next game than if not. Any real team with genuine quality will annihilate us as a matter of course.
