Dave Edwards: Opportunity missed and Wolves now need to use the transfer window wisely

Odegaard was missing for Arsenal and Saka was injured - two key men - and you hope it's a good time to play them in the midst of Champions League games as well. I was mildly optimistic before the game.

Myles Lewis-Skelly then gets that red card, which I think was extremely harsh on him, and for the first time in a long time we got the rub of the green.

It was fully there for us to take advantage of and I actually thought we finished the first half really strong. 

It was before Mikel Arteta was able to change his team around tactically, able to get back in the dressing room and give out new instructions.

We had him on the ropes, but, unfortunately, that half-time whistle just came a little bit too soon. 

The crowd were with the team and excited for the second half. It was such a huge opportunity to pull ourselves away from that bottom three. At minimum, get a draw, but it looks like we're going to get three points. 

But I was really disappointed with the first 15 minutes of the second half.

It looked like Arsenal had the player advantage. Wolves were sitting in, trying to protect that 0-0 scoreline.
