In the aftermath of another classy Albion victory and another worrying reversal for our near neighbours from Staffordshire, I wonder how many Baggies fans would want our respective clubs to swap places with each other at the moment, writes Albion’s Sporting Star columnist Neil Whitehouse.

Now don’t get me wrong, I wish we were still plying our trade in the top flight but there comes a point when you want to see your team win some football matches and our 10 wins from 17 league games have been great to watch.

By contrast, we have never won more than the eight Premier League games that we won last season so let’s savour every one of our victories this term in the knowledge that we know more than any set of fans know how tough it is ‘up there.’

I say this because you sense that the novelty of being in the Premier League has already worn off for a good proportion of Wolves fans on the back of spending £48 to watch Chelsea’s millionaires enjoying themselves at your team’s expense.

With last night’s Express & Star already comparing how the bottom of the table looks with previous seasons, it brought back memories of our own struggle this time last year to accumulate points in the period before Christmas when despite putting in one or two decent performances, we found ourselves in a run of games where victories or even draws were so very hard to come by. So let’s enjoy the respite from that and hope we can see a continuation of our current form to take us into the festive period.

A few weeks back, I was amongst a good number of fans that were concerned that our strikers were not scoring enough goals and whilst I would still like to see us adding another forward to our squad between now and the end of January, you have to say that the current system and line up is proving to be so successful that perhaps we are going to see numerous players finish with a dozen goals each rather than relying on one or two players to reach the twenty mark.

Simon Cox is starting to show the benefit of an extended run in the side where his workrate has been impressive topped off by his goals in each of the last two home games. But for me and I never thought I would say this, in terms of workrate, I have been equally impressed with Luke Moore’s contribution.

He may not be scoring as many goals as he would have wished, but there are definite signs that he is coming to terms with what is expected from him in leading the line.

His first touch is good and his link up play is improving and maybe he is proving to be part of the reason why the likes of Jerome Thomas, Chris Brunt and Simon Cox are finding the space and time to score their goals.

I am sure there are those fans that are still to be convinced he is a long term solution but at the moment, let’s acknowledge his role in the side and hope that Robert Di Matteo continues to develop him to become the player his undoubted talent could allow.
