Amid Wolves’ woeful start to the 2024/25 Premier League season, Gary O’Neil might be facing a stormy future should the Old Gold’s poor run persist.
Having garnered just a point from eight games, Wolves’ sole respite came with a draw against Nottingham Forest early in the season. Since then, defeats have been a familiar tale for O’Neil’s squad, with a heartbreaking late loss to Manchester City serving as the latest setback in a winless league streak stretching back to April.
The troubling trend has cast doubts on O’Neil’s managerial role, with Wolves languishing at the bottom of the league standings, sparking speculations about potential replacements for the struggling boss.
Despite suggestions linking Wolves to Jimmy Thelin of Aberdeen, no concrete moves have materialized. Recently, talkSPORT pundit Jamie O’Hara brought a voice of sympathy towards O’Neil’s position while hinting at Sean Dyche as a potential ideal replacement, although the latter’s commitment to Everton poses a significant hurdle.
Reflecting on Wolves’ underwhelming display given their roster’s quality, questions arise about the team’s utilization of talent and potential relegation struggles, prompting calls for a change in leadership to salvage the season.
While Dyche remains a tempting option for a midseason rescue mission, the primary desire among supporters and affiliates of the club is a notable upturn in both performance and outcomes as Wolves strive to elevate themselves from the depths of despair.
