Thomas Frank was happy with our first half display but felt we lost our 'structure and coolness' after Wolves took the lead in our 1-1 draw in the Premier League at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday.
Santiago Bueno fired home from close range to open the scoring for the visitors on 54 minutes. It looked like it was going to stay that way before Joao Palhinha's fine finish to salvage a point four minutes into added time.
As Thomas suggested, it was a tale of two halves as we had the better of the first and only the combination of Sam Johnstone, the woodwork and a bit of luck going our way stopped us going in front, with Mo Kudus particularly influential.
However, it was a struggle to carve out chances after Bueno's opener until Palhinha's late, late finish.
Speaking on our Review Show, Thomas told us: "First of all, I would love to win. The expectations beforehand are we're playing against a Wolves team which I clearly said before the game that we haven't been able to beat them last five times, now six, and that's disappointing. It also shows the Premier League is relentless, so difficult. You don't know what you're going to get.
"I'm happy with the first half. I felt that was a good performance, we were on top of the game, controlled it, gave nothing away, created two or three chances, disallowed goal, maybe a penalty. We also got into dangerous situations without creating two or three more chances or getting that goal.
"The second half, the start was okay, but after their goal, I felt we lost structure and coolness to get more on top of the game. The effort and mentality, I need to praise the players for that. I think that was very important.
"It was also important that the fans kept pushing us forward. In the end, we get a deserved point and, yes, we'd love to win, but if we can't win, don't lose and keep a little bit of momentum."
