Bukayo Saka feels that we were punished for our second-half performance against Wolves, but has reiterated that our destiny this season is still in our control.
Our skipper for the night put us ahead after just five minutes with a header from close range, and Piero Hincapie’s first goal for the club doubled the lead in the second half.
However Wolves fought back and would find a way to get level when Tom Edozie earned them a point, as two slipped from our grasp.
Reflecting on the mood in the away changing room, Bukayo said: “It’s pretty flat. We’re pretty disappointed with the result, it’s the only way to describe it.
“I think it’s a game of two halves. In the first half we started so well but in the second half we dropped the level and got punished for it.”

With the games coming thick and fast, the first opportunity to put things right comes on Sunday when we travel across north London for a meeting with Tottenham Hotspur.
While Bukayo is all too aware that every derby day is a massive occasion, he feels that this one has extra emphasis now as we look to get another victory against our rivals to get the winning feeling back again and continue our title push.
“It was already a big game and now it’s still a big game,” Bukayo added. “We just know these last few games that we have left, we need to win.
“It’s still in our control so we just need to focus on that, fix the issues we’re having now and get back to winning ways.”
