O’Neil urges his side to trust the process

“Stay the course” was Gary O’Neil’s message ahead of Wolves’ clash with Liverpool.

He has also written about “scrapping for everything” while still wanting to keep Wolves’ style in Saturday’s programme.

The confidence remains at Molineux and O’Neil said to the media on Friday he did not expect to be talking positively throughout the entire season.

Wolves’ winless start is magnified by the fact it comes at the start of the season while O’Neil said it had been suggested to him it had been the hardest opening – in terms of opposition – for any Premier League team.

Although, with a goal difference of -9 already having conceded 14, Wolves have not made it easy for themselves. The calamitous second half against Chelsea springs immediately to mind.

Performances against Chelsea, Arsenal, Newcastle and Aston Villa have been promising and with better finishing or without individual mistakes Wolves would have more points.

They need to find a way to convert positive spells into consistent displays and while victory over Liverpool would be a shock it is clear O’Neil believes his team have it in them.
