Liam Keen's Wolves player ratings v Arsenal after late defeat
Liam Keen rates the Wolves players on their performance following the late defeat to Arsenal.
Sam Johnstone
The goalkeeper was doing absolutely fine until his own goal. It cost Wolves and was very avoidable, and slightly unlucky.
Mistake: 4
Matt Doherty
On his return to the team, the defender was solid back at right-wing-back and dealt with the danger fairly well.
Solid: 6
Yerson Mosquera
Mosquera was having a decent game but his own goal also cost Wolves in heartbreaking fashion. It was also avoidable, with a hint of bad luck.
Own goal: 5
Emmanuel Agbadou
The centre-back was strong in the air, particularly from set pieces, and did nothing particularly wrong on the night.
Strong: 6
Toti Gomes
Toti perhaps edged it as the best performer from the back five and acted as good cover on the left side against dangerous forwards.
Cover: 6
David Moller Wolfe
Wolfe did well against a tough opponent in Saka and was rarely caught out, with good awareness and positioning.
Positioning: 6
Andre
Andre acted as good cover in front of the defence and looked after the ball well, doing the simple things effectively.
Effective: 6
Ladislav Krejci
Krejci's positioning was far better than the last game and he was able to impact the game on the ball, although he was a little sloppy in the second half at times.
Impact: 6
Joao Gomes
J.Gomes was excellent, covered so much of the pitch and was the reason Arsenal struggled to dictate the game.
Fighter: 7
Hwang Hee-chan
Hwang put himself about well, worked hard and warranted his start. However, he did lack some quality in the final third.
Warranted: 6
Jorgen Strand Larsen
The striker is under a lot of pressure at the moment and getting plenty of criticism, but he did work hard here. The problem is his current inability to get involved in the key action. The game is passing him by.
Critiqued: 5

Jackson Tchatchoua (for Doherty, 69), 5, Tolu Arokodare (for Larsen, 69), 7, Fer Lopez (for Krejci, 80), Jhon Arias (for Hwang, 80), Mateus Mane (for Toti, 86).
