We will get more from Tolu — Wolves boss ready to build around Arokodare

Wolves are rooted to the bottom of the Premier League after a winless start that led to Vitor Pereira's sacking, forcing them to turn to new boss Rob Edwards.

Despite a debut defeat to Crystal Palace, there were immediate positive tactical shifts, notably the decision to partner Tolu Arokodare with Jørgen Strand Larsen in attack.

While the striking pair did not manage a goal, the Nigerian impressed Edwards, suggesting he is set for more Molineux minutes.

Edwards, speaking to the Wolves’ official website, expressed confidence in the duo:

“I think they’ll be very difficult to play against.

“Tolu’s done really well this week for us, and I’ve liked him, and I thought he worked extremely hard today.

“We’ll get more from him the fitter he gets. He’s not at full power, I don’t think he’s quite sure yet, but he worked really, really hard for the hour or so that he was on.

“I’m looking forward to getting more from him. I think he believes in what we’re trying to do.”

The former Luton coach concluded that the formidable partnership could become a nightmare for opponents:

“If we can get them right at it, you wouldn’t want to play against those two.”

Despite having the Premier League's worst-ever start with just two points from 12 games, Arokodare remains confident the team can still pull off a turnaround.

The Super Eagles star believes Wolves must remain confident. "Every little bit of confidence matters. I don’t think there has to be a certain amount.

"We just have had to stay confident, stay positive and keep working and hopefully we get the results.”
