Liam Keen's Wolves player ratings v Brentford after 10th consecutive defeat

Liam Keen rates the Wolves players on their performance following the defeat to Brentford.

Jose Sa

Recalled to the side and with a chance to impress, Sa certainly did not take it, despite a couple good saves. Erratic from start to finish.

Erratic: 4

Ki-Jana Hoever

Hoever was desperately poor in possession throughout the match and was unable to pick simple passes or offer any attacking threat.

Poor: 4

Matt Doherty

Back in the three centre-backs, Doherty was solid enough and did well to win the penalty late in the game.

Solid: 5

Santi Bueno

With his recall, Bueno did not do a lot wrong and it was the team crumbling around him that often caused the problems.

Recalled: 5

Ladislav Krejci

Krejci's terrible mistake led to Brentford's opener and ultimately was Wolves' downfall at Molineux.

Mistake: 4

David Moller Wolfe

The wing-back worked hard and was industrious, but did lack some quality in the final third, particularly in the first half.

Industrious: 5

Andre

The midfielder did occasionally make errors in possession, but was otherwise good on the ball and worked to protect the defence.

Protect: 5

Joao Gomes

J.Gomes ran himself into the ground but Brentford exploited that to open up too many spaces in midfield.

Exploited: 5

Fer Lopez

Lopez certainly has technical ability but he was too weak in possession and was unable to impact the game.

Weak: 4

Hwang Hee-chan

Hwang was the best of the forward options, he created some good moments and worked hard without much help from those around him.

Hard worker: 5

Jorgen Strand Larsen

The striker is struggling badly and needed to score his penalty, but delivered a terrible spot kick and a poor overall performance.

Lacking confidence: 4

Mateus Mane (for Lopez, 65), 6, Tolu Arokodare (for Hoever, 80), Jackson Tchatchoua (for Doherty, 89), Jhon Arias (for Hwang, 89).

Subs not used: Johnstone, Pond, Olagunju, Rawlings, Gonzalez.
