Breaking News: Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C. head coach Gary Paul O’Neil has signed a two-year contract with the..

Wolves enter the Premier League after the international break with a sense of urgency, having earned just one point from their first three matches. Gary O’Neil’s side suffered losses to Arsenal and Chelsea before drawing 1-1 with Nottingham Forest, securing their first point.

New signings Sam Johnstone and Jorgen Strand Larsen made their debuts, while Brazilian midfielder Andre came off the bench for the final four minutes. However, one of O’Neil’s promising additions remained an unused substitute.

Rodrigo Gomes, Wolves’ first summer signing from Braga for £12.7 million, impressed in pre-season with his speed and creativity. He started against Arsenal and looked threatening on the counter-attack, but has only played 22 minutes since, coming off the bench in the 6-2 loss to Chelsea. The 21-year-old was also an unused substitute in both the Carabao Cup win over Burnley and the draw with Forest, a decision that journalists Nathan Judah and Liam Keen found harsh.

Keen and Judah believe Gomes could be a key asset for Wolves, particularly with his goal-scoring potential from wide areas. Although competition for wide positions is fierce, Gomes may still earn a chance in upcoming matches, including the clash against Newcastle.
