Things are looking bleak in terms of the league table for Wolverhampton Wanderers, and these players will be key in turning things round.
There is a long way to go for Wolverhampton Wanderers in terms of mending their season, but the appointment of Paul Lambert indicates that they are off to a good start.
As they progress throughout the next few months, there are a few key players in particular that will be vital in the fight to move away from the relegation zone.
Newcastle United’s Vurnon Anita is shown a straight red card after this challenge on Wolves’ Ivan Cavaleiro
Ivan Cavaleiro
If the game against Derby was not evidence enough, Cavaleiro still has a long way to go at Wolves. The club’s record signing has stumbled since arriving at Molineux as he attempts to transition into English football, but he has certainly shown the skill and ability necessary to thrive at the Midlands club. Now all that is left for him to do is find some consistency in addition to a firm place in the starting XI.
Norwich’s Cameron Jerome in action with Wolves’ Danny Batth
Danny Batth
Captain Danny has had some problems so far this season, with the hometown lad struggling to lead Wolves towards success. The more fickle fans in the Black Country have decided to get on his back about this, but pressure has never been something that has phased the defender. With Paul Lambert now at the helm, he needs to step up and be the leader that everyone knows he can be.
Nouha Dicko scores the second goal for Wolves
Nouha Dicko
Since returning from injury Nouha Dicko has not reached the form he once did at Wolves, but he has shown sparks of the genius that made him one of Molineux’s most beloved players. If he can summon that quality and start building up a partnership with Bodvarsson in the coming weeks, he will become one of the most feared strikers in the Championship – again.
