Wolves winger appears to be using criticism as motivation.

Wolves winger Helder Costa struggled to make an impact in the weekend’s FA Cup tie against Shrewsbury Town.

He was criticised by supporters for his ineffective performance. The tweets have not gone ignored.

Last night Costa ‘liked’ some messages from fans, including one which graded his performance 0/10. Another suggested they did not want to see him playing again anytime soon.

The winger is likely to be using these messages as a way to motivate himself to lift his game.

He has been a regular for Nuno Santo’s side this season, making 16 Premier League starts. He has only scored one goal.

Nothing would please Wolves fans than seeing Costa succeed at Molineux.

Part of what makes the frustration more poignant is that Wolves supporters know what Costa is capable of, and they want to see him recapture his form.
