WE WERE ASKED BY THE BBC TO SHARE OUR THOUGHTS FOLLOWING WOLVES HEARTBREAKING EXIT FROM THE FA CUP
Saying bye-bye to the Cup stung a bit.
I can’t shake the feeling that Wolves missed a golden chance for a Wembley trip to create some unforgettable memories.
Of course we have to give Coventry the credit they deserve but a few things tripped Wolves up. The small squad has cost us dearly. We’ve always known that too many injuries would spell trouble for the team. The injuries aren’t even spread evenly across the squad – they’re all up top, and it was obvious that Wolves were struggling in attack. With players playing out of position and the absence of our key men Coventry took full advantage of our lack of pace and threat up front and were able to push on with nothing to lose.
To somehow get ourselves in front and then deep in stoppage time to lose in the way we did was heartbreaking. This is the most annoying and frustrating thing, the team should have managed the game so much better but you have to say fair play to Coventry, they made us pay.
In the aftermath, Wolves need to quickly shift their focus towards the remaining matches, maintaining a positive mindset and regaining momentum will be crucial if we don’t want our season to end with a whimper. Fingers crossed that the international break will give the lads a chance to recharge with some downtime and allow players like Cunha, Dawson, and Bellegarde to recover to full fitness and rejoin the squad.
