With his side overachieving and entering December in sixth place with eyes on Europe, it seems odd to say it but it is time for Wolves boss Bruno Lage to earn his corn.

So far, he has done a stellar job. The Portuguese has made Wolves better to watch and when it all clicks, they can play teams off the park.

But with matches against Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea all to come before Christmas, back-to-back goalless draws against teams in the bottom three is rather unwelcome.
