Perfect for Cunha: Wolves could hire attacking 4-3-3 O’Neil replacement.
Gary O’Neil is arguably on borrowed time in the Molineux dug-out, as his despondent Wolverhampton Wanderers side fell to yet another harrowing Premier League defeat last match.
The porous Old Gold defence shipped a disastrous five goals on their travels to Thomas Frank’s Brentford, leading to a full-time score of 5-3 in favour of the Bees, with Wolves rooted to the bottom of the division.
Wolves manager Gary O’Neil
That means the West Midlands strugglers have now leaked a league-worst 21 goals from just seven games, and with only one point next to their name from that string of dire displays, something could soon have to change.
The latest on Gary O’Neil’s future at Wolves
As per a recent report by Football Insider, a decision could soon be made concerning the former AFC Bournemouth boss’ future at Molineux, with the Old Gold hierarchy deliberating over a call currently.
Yet, Sky Sports have also suggested that the powers that be at the Premier League’s basement club will stick by O’Neil despite looming pressures surrounding his job security, considering the 41-year-old did help his side finish in a respectable 14th spot last campaign after picking up the pieces from Julen Lopetegui.
