How the pressure of playing Wolves can help Rob Edwards' side

With Wolves still bottom of the Premier League, there is an expectation on teams like Liverpool to beat them, and Edwards hopes the underdog tag will help get his side over the line again.

“There will be a pressure," Edwards said.

“When we played Shrewsbury and Grimsby - the expectation was that we have to win.

“I know it’s different - they were in League Two, but that’s probably what other teams will be feeling when they play us.

“There is a pressure on them to win every game, not just because it’s Wolves.

“But there’s a different pressure that we can use - it maybe helps us as the games go on.

“We don’t bang on about it with the players all the time, but it's a fact that we’re getting stronger as the game goes on.”

When asked if there is a psychological element to the pressure teams face against Wolves, Edwards added: “There will be that, and it’s understandable, purely on position.

“And there’s pressure on those teams to win games at this stage of the season.

“There’ll definitely be something in that.”

With back-to-back wins and a recent draw against Arsenal, Wolves have found their form of late and the head coach puts that down to consistency in their standards.

"It’s not rocket science, it’s a consistent message, it’s about showing people if it’s not at the level and then telling people when it is," Edwards said.

“Then we show them, and celebrate it when we get it right.

“But being consistent every day and not letting people get away with it.”
