No side in the Championship has conceded more goals than Sheffield Wednesday this season.

Jos Luhukay has admitted to the Yorkshire Post that the cause behind Sheffield Wednesday’s defensive problems is very obvious.

Wednesday have lost their last four matches, after a disastrous run of form, and during that time they have been far too easy to cut open.

The Owls have conceded 12 goals in their last four outings, and they have failed to clean sheet in the Championship all season.

And Luhukay feels that Wednesday’s inconsistencies at the back are to blame for their poor form.

“Everyone can see we are not consistent enough in our defending work,” the Owls boss said. “You cannot win games when you give goals so easily away.”

No team in the Championship have conceded more goals than Wednesday so far this season.

Luhukay’s side have let in 30 goals in their 16 games so far this term, and unless they can find a way to tighten up at the back, their form looks unlikely to improve.

Luhukay is now under serious pressure at Hillsborough, with numerous Wednesday fans calling for him to be sacked.

The Owls are next in action on Friday evening, when they take on Sheffield United at Bramall Lane.
