How Marshall Munetsi’s Surprising Midfield Surge Could Ignite Wolves’ Title Ambitions
Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder understood what his team were up against when Wolverhampton Wanderers came to town.
Speaking after Wolves beat the Blades with a last-minute goal, whose constituent parts all started the match on the away bench at Bramall Lane, Wilder’s comments to reporters referenced more than once that his opposite number from the Black Country has quality in both depth and abundance.
He’s right on both counts. On this occasion, it was the depth that made the difference.
Wolves manager Peixoto is shaping a creative attacking unit
Wolves let a few opportunities pass them by but the intervention of substitutes Kieran Trippier, Tommy Doyle – inadvertently – and Raul Jimenez gave them that little bit extra when it mattered most.
Having that additional sharp edge is useful but Cesar Peixoto’s set-up before he deployed his substitutes was more indicative of Wolves’ tactical point of difference in the Championship.
