Steve Bull: Wolves look sharp in pre-season preparations

I don’t want us to get carried away, but they looked very sharp, were together as a team and the goals they scored were excellent.

It was a brilliant game to watch with a great Wolves performance.

We still have a week to go until the start of the season, but they look ready.

Wolves have a tough start to the season, so the lads have to be in top form, but on the performances from pre-season I think they will give Arsenal a good go.

Wolves are in a good position. I was worried about the centre-backs and the cover there, but the lads have done a fantastic job.

The Palace game was a bit average, having made a lot of changes, but against West Ham and RB Leipzig, we put in two very good performances.

I’m not too sure about the change to a back four, I’ve said all along I prefer a back five to make us more solid, but so far we’ve looked quite comfortable with this change.

If Gary O’Neil wants to make that change then I trust him to do it.

The overall trip to America was brilliant, on and off the pitch.

Russell Jones and his team did a fantastic job organising it.

Now, attentions turn to the Molineux friendly with Rayo Vallecano today.

We have to approach the game with optimism and I expect to see most of the starting XI that will play at Arsenal.

It’s still a friendly, so it’s less about the result, and I hope everyone comes away unscathed after a good performance.

This is the last bit of hard work to prepare for the season and the players will know their job.

Improving fitness and keeping fit is the most important thing. Hopefully Matheus Cunha will be back soon.

I hope to see plenty of fans inside Molineux cheering them on and giving the new signings a good welcome.
