Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Vitor Pereira delivered a scathing assessment of his team's performance after they suffered a humiliating 3-0 defeat to Fulham at Molineux on Saturday.
The Portuguese coach didn't mince his words when describing what he witnessed from his side, calling it "the worst performance since I arrived" at the club.
Comprehensive Defeat at Molineux
Fulham dominated proceedings from start to finish, with goals from Aleksandar Mitrović, Bobby Decordova-Reid, and Harrison Reed securing a comfortable victory for Marco Silva's men. The visitors controlled possession and created numerous chances while Wolves struggled to find any rhythm or attacking threat.
"We were poor in every aspect of the game," Pereira admitted in his post-match press conference. "Our passing was inaccurate, our movement was static, and we showed no fighting spirit. This is not the standard we have set at this club."
Manager's Fury Evident
The defeat leaves Wolves languishing in the bottom half of the Premier League table, raising concerns among supporters about the team's direction under Pereira. The manager's visible frustration during the match continued into his media duties afterwards.
"When you play at home, in front of your own fans, you have a responsibility to show passion and quality," he stated. "Today we showed neither. The players know this is unacceptable, and we have much work to do before our next match."
Fulham's Impressive Away Display
While Wolves struggled, Fulham produced one of their best away performances of the season. Marco Silva's tactical setup completely nullified Wolves' attacking threats while exploiting defensive vulnerabilities.
The comprehensive victory moves Fulham up the table and continues their impressive form against mid-table opposition this campaign.
Wolves now face a crucial period to address their shortcomings, with Pereira promising significant changes in both attitude and performance ahead of their next Premier League fixture.
