Vitor Pereira has issued a message to supporters following Wolves’ 1-0 defeat to Newcastle United.
The pressure is no doubt mounting on the Portuguese manager as Wolves have zero points from their opening four games.
While there could be good news on Jorgen Strand Larsen on the horizon, there still may not be enough quality for the Old Gold who sit bottom of the table.
Fans are frustrated with the performances they are seeing from their team and Wolves have scored in just one game so far.
However, Vitor Pereira is remaining positive and has delivered a message to fans of the Wanderers.
Vitor Pereira says last season proves Wolves will improve
Vitor Pereira’s job at Wolves last year was remarkable. The Portuguese took over from Gary O’Neil in December with the Old Gold sat in the relegation zone.
By the end of the season, Wolves had comfortably avoided the drop and finished 17 points above 18th place.
Despite losing four from four this season, Pereira believes this proves he can turn things around.
Speaking during his post-Newcastle press conference, the 57-year-old said, “For the supporters, the message is very clear, if I have time with the players, I will increase our performance.”
“I showed last season that I can increase the level of this team, I will do it again.”
With other relegation candidates picking up points, the time Pereira says he needs may not be afforded due to the other teams around them.
Sunderland, Leeds and Burnley have already picked up wins this season, and the longer Wolves continue to struggle, the larger that gap could become.

Wolves may have improved last year, but this year they do not have the same quality
It was a rallying message from Vitor Pereira, but doing what he did last season could be a lot harder this time around.
The promoted teams this year seem to be much stronger compared to previous seasons, and the quality of the players they had last year are no longer at the club.
Matheus Cunha and Rayan Ait Nouri were a large part of the turnaround in form, and their replacements have yet to hit the ground running.
Jhon Arias has not adapted to English football yet, and David Moller Wolfe has not started in their last two matches.
Pereira says he can improve the quality of Wolves, but to fans, there is not much quality in the side to improve.
