Wolves face a mirror image
- Published
Wolves are edging closer to a mirror image of last season.
Fail to beat Fulham at Craven Cottage on Saturday and they will match last season's 10-game winless start.
That is one of the reasons why Vitor Pereira replaced Gary O'Neil in December.
After Sunday's damaging 3-2 defeat to Burnley there is reluctance at Molineux to part with Pereira and there is still a belief he can turn it around. The players remain onside and both Shi and Fosun feel there is a way out of trouble.
Wolves also want to stop the revolving door of managers in the last three years after Bruno Lage and O'Neil lasted 14 months and Julen Lopetegui stayed for less than a year.
However, the winless run cannot continue indefinitely without consequences, everyone is aware of that and not naïve to the situation.
Pereira faces the media on Friday afternoon and, strangely for a side winless and bottom of the table, his future is not top of the agenda.
Purely finding a way to win, however they can, remains the priority for Wolves.
