Liam Keen analysis: Wolves' emotion is both a blessing and a curse

They are full of energy, heart, determination and fight. They are desperate to win, want to be at the club and will do everything in their power to be successful.

Wolves have genuinely built a group of good characters and impressive individuals, but that alone is rarely enough to win football matches at the very highest level.

That same emotion that makes this Wolves team so likeable and often entertaining, is the same emotion that is holding them back.

They are reckless and raw. They lack discipline, shape and organisation when it truly matters.

Wolves are capable of it, as the defensive display against Manchester City showed, but too frequently they get caught cold and struggle to regain control.

They did regain control against Crystal Palace, but still found a way to throw it away. That is a dangerous characteristic of a team still without a win in 10 Premier League games and bottom of the division on three points.

Wolves are currently unable to channel their strengths and instead they are struggling at the wrong end of the table.

They started this key game at Molineux fairly well and kept the ball while putting Palace under some pressure.
