"Wolves have been cut adrift at the foot of the table following a dismal first half of the season, and they were threatening to break the record for the longest winless run from the start of a campaign in English top-flight history (Bolton Wanderers' 22 games in 1902-03). But they finally got off the mark for 2025-26 at the 20th attempt on Saturday, overcoming West Ham 3-0 at Molineux."
"He's still at that stage where I'm probably still a bit scary to him, so he won't ask me any questions at all! He's just got to keep doing what he's doing. He's got a really good attitude, but he's affected games very, very well with his intensity and his selfless work, but then real moments of quality and bravery, which I think has rubbed off on the group as well."
Wolves sat bottom of the Premier League after a dismal first half of the season and threatened the record for the longest winless start in top-flight history. They ended a 20-match winless run by beating West Ham 3-0 at Molineux, after rallying to draw 1-1 at Manchester United earlier that week. Mateus Mane, aged 18 years and 109 days, assisted, won a penalty and scored to become Wolves' youngest-ever Premier League goalscorer. Manager Rob Edwards credited Mane's intensity, selfless work, quality and bravery with positively affecting the group. The victory lifted morale among players and supporters. Everton lost 4-2 to Brentford and remain without several key players through injury.
