'Many years we've started like this' - Hwang Hee-chan points to how experience can help in Wolves' push
Forward Hwang Hee-chan believes Wolves can use experience of sluggish starts to push for survival under Rob Edwards.
Wolves have been perennial slow starters and face an uphill battle to retain their Premier League status under the new head coach, who was appointed on Wednesday.
Hwang, who turns 30 in January, has started just five of Wolves' winless 11 top flight fixtures and believes Edwards' time managing in the Premier League with Luton and Wolves background can help the club kick on.
The South Korean also feels Wolves players who pushed for survival under Gary O'Neil and Vitor Pereira can use muscle memory to help claw back the eight points to safety.
"We have to make a result and I trust our team a lot," said Hwang.
"I've played here for five years and for many years we've started like this, but every time we bounce back and get a good position at the end of the season.
"I trust us a lot and think we can do it.
"It's difficult to say to fans that we apologise and I can just say we will keep working hard and I will give my best on the pitch, I promise.
"Not just me, everyone is doing it and we're really excited for the new manager to come.
"We won't give 100 per cent, we will give 120 per cent for sure. We trust each other."
Wolves were 19th in the Premier League when Pereira replaced O'Neil last December. They were five points adrift of rivals Leicester and safety and Pereira opened up with a victory at the King Power Stadium.
Edwards' first match at the helm sees mid-table Crystal Palace visit Molineux on Saturday week.
Despite Wolves coming under fire for six summer signings with no Premier League experience, Hwang has confidence in the ranks.
"When you see our group, it's very young, but we have many players that have played in the Premier League," he added.
"We have to come out of this 100 per cent, we have quality and if we show it like last season then I think we can get points and have a good position."
