Gary O’Neil has hailed Wolves’ ‘incredible performance’ in their defeat to Arsenal.
The injury-hit squad produced an impressive display that frustrated and contained the Gunners, before a fortuitous Leandro Trossard goal and late Martin Odegaard strike won it for the London club.“It was an incredible performance that even probably exceeded my expectations,” O’Neil said.
Under the lights at Molineux, the supporters created a loud atmosphere and fed off the aggressive performance from the team.He added: “They were far better than I could ever ask for or expect. “Our performance helped them. They could feel there was an energy and aggression and we were trying to make it uncomfortable for Arsenal.
Pablo Sarabia and Mario Lemina were both benched for the game, with Sarabia carrying a groin knock and Lemina showing signs of fatigue. “I was trying to pick a team with the rest of the week in mind, trying to juggle it with just 10 available that can complete 90 minutes.
