Wolves suffered another blow in their fight to avoid relegation on Monday night as they fell to a 2-1 defeat at West Ham. In a game dubbed El Sackico because of the increasingly precarious positions of both Julen Lopetegui and Gary O’Neil, it was the latter whose job came under yet more scrutiny.
Wolves are 19th in the Premier League after a third successive defeat, having taken just nine points from 15 games so far this season. It leaves them four points from safety and the mood at the club is low as a result.
