"Wolves sit bottom of the Premier League after taking just two points from their first 16 games in a historically bad start to the campaign. Only Sheffield United (also two points at this stage of 2020-21, finally winning their 18th match) have ever made such a poor start to a Premier League season, excluding Portsmouth, who also had two points in 2009-10 but had suffered a nine-point deduction. Wolves are winless in their last 20 Premier League matches (D3 L17), and there have only ever been four longer runs in the competition's history."
"Of course, we need the fans, but I won't change my tune, and we've got to make them get behind us. It'd be great if they could support the lads, but they're really frustrated at the moment - not all of them, but some are more frustrated than others."
Wolves must win back frustrated supporters when they host Brentford, with players expected to shoulder responsibility for getting fans onside. The club sits bottom of the Premier League with two points from 16 games, one of the worst starts in competition history apart from a points-deducted case and a similar Sheffield United season. Wolves are winless in their last 20 Premier League matches, one of the longest winless runs on record. Fans have protested ownership by Fosun International and chairman Jeff Shi. The manager will prioritise on-field performance and hope positive moments restore fan support.
