Overview
- Wolves lost 2-0 at Sunderland on 18 October, extending their league run without a win to eight matches and leaving them bottom with two points and five points off 17th.
- Mick Brown told Football Insider that the upcoming matches against Burnley and Fulham are must-win and said a home defeat to Burnley would make a dismissal feel inevitable.
- Football Insider previously reported on 14 October that the club was not considering sacking Vítor Pereira, though pressure has increased since that stance was conveyed.
- Pereira signed a new deal last month, with reporting suggesting there may be a contractual route that would allow Wolves to remove him despite the length of the agreement.
- Pereira said striker Jorgen Strand Larsen is managing a recurring Achilles issue and training sparingly, and Brown warned playing through it risks a serious setback for a forward who has yet to score this season.
