On Saturday Nuno Espirito Santo takes his Wolves team North to Lancashire to take on Burnley.
After their stunning victory over Manchester United in the FA cup, the Wolves players have had little opportunity to rest with 10 of the 18-man squad away on international duty.
Currently in 7th place in the table, Wolves have won just one of their previous 5 league games, drawing 3 and losing 1.
Currently in 17th place in the table, Burnley also have won just one of their previous 5. However, they are now on a run of 4 losses, the last one of which was a home defeat to Leicester who played 86 minutes with 10 men after Harry Maguire’s 4th minute dismissal.
Having scored just 3 goals less than Wolves but conceded 23 goals more, it is clear to see where the problem lies within the Burnley team.
Sean Dyche has called on his players to use the international break to consider their position in the league. With their final 4 games of the season being against Chelsea, Man City, Everton and Arsenal the next 3 games are critical for the Clarets if they are to put some distance between themselves and the relegation zone.
Burnley have conceded a league high 10 goals scored after 90 minutes, a fact which will not be lost on Nuno and his players who have scored 6 added time goals this season.
Wolves’ centre back Ryan Bennett is unavailable due to suspension with Romain Saiss expected to again fill the position on the right side of the defence.

Happy Birthday to Sylvan Eubanks-Blake. Only 33, can you believe. In 2008 on his birthday he scored a memorable solo goal in our win at Charlton.

One of the best goals I've seen, slick footwork around defender and bulleted into net from tight angle, beauty.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Henry scored the winner in the 94th minute didn't he after a great break away?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
sure did Cinci.

comment on a guardian article about the best prem managers
I would put Nuno Espírito Santo top of that list. The way Wolves play, the talent he's assembled on a relative shoestring, the support the team gets, their league position for a newly promoted club and the FA Cup run are just scintillating. I love watching Wolves. And this is coming from a West Ham fan, where, I would like to think of Wolves as a comparable club, but really they're on another level. Pep and Klopp are simply meeting expectations. Nuno is blowing them out of the park.

Wolfie out of hospital and heart rate back to where it should be after treatment. Off meds, so hopefully the ol' ticker can last a few more years.

You'd be far better off moving back to the UK to a country with a more temperate climate, one that your body is designed to thrive in. It's much too hot in Florida for British nationals.
I had a couple of friends that emigrated to a region with a tropical climate, and they were both dead in 12 months.
The extreme heat puts too much strain on the heart and other vital organs. Home is where the heart is (from)...... never a truer word spoken.

I've lived here for 19 years now and what you have suggested is total bollox. Many people leave for a warmer climate when retirement looms. Plenty of vitamin D. Your friends most likely had their problems before moving overseas.

Strong words indeed.
My friends were in great shape when they moved to Syria.
