'One of my favourite performances in my time as a coach' - O'Neil

Wolves manager Gary O’Neil, speaking to Sky Sports: "It’s probably one of my favourite performances in my time as a coach. We knew this was going to be a really tough test with the players we were missing.

"It wasn’t as if we nicked a win today – I thought we were good value. It’s something that the players deserve. We’ve had a really good response to a tough afternoon at Brentford.

"The first goal was straight off the training ground. Obviously it’s great quality from Matheus, but it’s something we work on a lot. It was a really composed performance without the ball. It’s important we take that forward with us."

On Matheus Cunha: "I love him, I love working with him. The improvements he’s made are just incredible. When I came, there was an incredible, undeniable talent, but [he was] someone who didn’t know how to make [the most of] it. We get him in some great spots now.

"He’s a great guy. It’s probably his best out-of-possession performance for us. He fitted into our structure very well, led from the front and brought some incredible quality to the game."

On Mario Lemina: "I thought he was excellent. It was an excellent centre-back performance. He has the tools to play there. We did a bit of work with him yesterday, but it was a really top performance. It feels wrong to speak too much about individuals, but Toti [Gomes] is another one. [Goalkeeper] Jose Sa is another one. There are some really good stories."
