Wolves manager Walter Zenga has said he does not believe his side deserved to lose against Norwich City at the weekend.

Inconsistency has been the theme of Wolverhampton Wanderers’ 2016/17 campaign so far, with the club lying mid-table after their first 11 league games.

They are still trying to discover their best starting XI, with manager Walter Zenga attempting to formulate a side capable of winning promotion in his first season.

As reported by Express & Star, Zenga has said he feels that his side did not deserve to lose against Norwich at the weekend.

Goals from Cameron Jerome and Robbie Brady ensured victory for the Canaries at Molineux, with Dave Edwards’ goal not being enough to get the Midlands side back into the game.

“I think that we didn’t deserve to lose the game. In my opinion we deserved more than zero (points).”

“I think that we played a very good game for all of the game.

“Don’t forget that before it was 2-0 we had a great chance to score with Dicko and probably the game could have changed.

“There were other situations we created. They (Norwich) had a chance to kill the game on 2-0, and we had a chance to open the game with 30 minutes left.”

Much has been said and written about Zenga’s managerial techniques over the last few weeks, and with every passing result we are no closer to learning where Wolves will end up this season.

Attempting to navigate out of the Championship is easier said than done, with many foreign managers over the years realising just how difficult the league is after the first few months. Zenga will look to get his side back on track when they face Aston Villa in a Midlands derby after the international break.
