Max Kilman believes a couple of his Wolves teammates in particular have really kicked on this season.
Wanderers recorded a massive win over champions Manchester City.
After losing to Ipswich Town just days before in the Carabao Cup, Wanderers turned in their best performance of the season to date.
It was a result few saw coming.
But Gary O’Neil executed a perfect game plan at Molineux.
And key to the plan was the work of the three attackers – Pedro Neto, Hwang Hee-chan and Matheus Cunha. And captain Kilman has hailed the trio…
Max Kilman hails Wolves attackers after Manchester City win
Wolves had to do a lot of defending against City, as they were always going to.
Kilman, Craig Dawson and Toti Gomes were all fantastic.
But the team defended from the front, with Neto, Hwang and Cunha all working their socks off.
And then of course, they provided a threat on the counter.
Kilman was really impressed with them, and believes they’ve stepped up this season.
He said (Express & Star): “They’re top (Neto and Hwang). They’ve both really kicked on this season and they’re doing really well, and Cunha as well.
“The front three was electric and we know if we won the ball and put them on the counter-attack, we’d have many chances, and it paid off.”
Neto, Hwang and Cunha will be a commonly used attack by O’Neil
Neto, Hwang and Cunha were just superb against City. Individually and as a unit.
One would imagine O’Neil will be turning to this particular attack quite often this season.
Because the three players possess speed, directness and all work their socks off.
And there is a actually a decent goal threat there now, too.
