Dave Edwards: Wolves are heading in the right direction despite Wrexham frustration

It’s now six unbeaten with four wins, but there will be disappointment that they could only leave North Wales on Saturday with that solitary point.

It was a decent performance away at Bristol City in the week. I thought Wolves were dominant before having a very good goal scored against them with that Scott Twine free-kick.

But they reacted well. There was dominance in that game without really having that cutting edge.

It was fantastic to see Sean Neave get his big moment in a Wolves shirt - scoring those two late goals to win the game in front of the away fans.

That’s always special as a player to be involved in those situations, let alone to be the one to score the goals. Very similar to Ryan Bennett all of those years ago under Nuno Espirito Santo in that Championship title-winning season.

So that would’ve given them so much belief heading into the Wrexham game. There were lots of changes and some were questioned, but I do think they were all understandable.

Bringing Toti Gomes in for some extra height. I know he had a difficult afternoon with Issa Kabore, but you can see why Cesar Peixoto went down that route.

Some freshness in the wingers. Kieran Trippier was rested which you can understand because he’s 36 and playing two games in four days is a big ask.

Then Nasser Djiga came back in for Yerson Mosquera. I know Mosquera had an illness, but Djiga fully deserves to be in the XI anyway and was impressive again.

The changes were understandable, but I did feel for Neave. He only got the last five minutes of the game.

After having such a big impact at Bristol City, he would’ve been hoping for a start in that Wrexham game. That wasn’t to be, but to only get five minutes when Wolves were so dominant in that second half, he will be very disappointed.

Wolves will be disappointed themselves that they conceded straight after opening the scoring from a terrific goal by Adam Armstrong.

The pass from Djiga was brilliant, the finish from Armstrong was clinical. He’s a man who is starting to find the form of the Championship striker that we know about.

It’s three goals in five for Armstrong, but he’s getting lots of chances and should have even more goals.

But that’s a good sign because he’s in the right areas at the right time. There would be questions over whether they needed to make so many changes.

I think it was a decent decision, but it was very similar to Bristol City, where they just lacked a little bit of a clinical edge in that final third.

For their dominance, Wolves didn’t create enough clear-cut chances. They still dominated the game and had a much better xG than Wrexham.

14 of their 22 shots came in the second half. It just shows that Wolves are heading in the right direction.

When you look deeper at the statistics, Wolves are where they deserve to be in the league, up and around those top two places.

They’re only a point off top and they’re are doing what they should be. It’s all the teams around them that seem to be overachieving at the moment.

You hope that Wolves’ consistency will continue and that others will drop off, but also that Wolves will get better and better as they get used to the Championship.
