Bring on the kids, although Wolves will be looking for the win.
Besiktas will have left most of their first team at home.
Forecast Wolves 2 Besiktas 1.

Watching the Champions league group games to see those teams who will drop down into the Europa.
Ajax last night, you wouldn't fear them.
Hakim Ziyech is their one stand out player and without him they would lack any originality and flair through midfield.
It would be a good trip for Wolves, who else would you like to see in Mondays draw?

Looking at the likely seeds and non seeds, it makes me realise the impact of not holding on for the win in Braga. Would love seeing us beat Celtic over two legs but it would be a tough game. Basel or Copenhagen would be good draws for us.

Inter with Conte at the helm must now be massive favourites for the EL. It's just a question of whether they think it's worth pursuing or the league is of more value.
I was hoping Dortmund would have dropped down instead of Inter as they blow hot and cold over the 90 minutes and were very fortunate to advance last night.
Without real reinforcements, Wolves will find it tough to swim out in the deeper waters later in the competition. Even our current team couldn't beat Braga over two games and Braga are small fry compared to Sevilla or Inter.

Donk has forgotten how to play in midfield. Put another attacker on, can finish top.

Looks like we`re going to need Jota on to get us a goal.

Try to re-arrange this tricky anagram which best describes that first half by Wolves...… WANK.

I've not seen a Wolves hat trick from a sub since The King, in the FA Cup in 1976

Great 2nd half - just a pity Braga woke up as well and won theirs - not sure who is in the next round, nor who to hope for - just have to beat whoever turns up!!

Great second half.
Only question is 'Will Cutrone EVER score again...?' Felt sorry for him in the end; just nothing quite worked! But great flick to set up (was it?) 2nd.
Looking forward to a big name in February.
Thought the two young lads in midfield looked very assured. Burr also promising. Vinaigre REALLY needs to stop this over-use of extravagant step-overs that simply slow him down and fool no-one!
Great save by Ruddy, which turned out to be an offside chance - but he showed he can still do it!
Happy evening!

If Braga had been leading by a couple at half time would Jota have even left the bench?
