  7. 'A different feel around Wolves'

    There is a different feel around Wolves going into the new Championship season.

    Pre-season results should not be overplayed, but the early signs under new head coach Cesar Peixoto are encouraging. The team looks more organised than it did under Rob Edwards, with a clearer structure on and off the ball and a more defined way of playing.

    There is plenty to improve, but the basics look stronger. Wolves seem fitter, sharper and harder to play through, while carrying a greater threat in the final third. Set-pieces have become a genuine source of danger, and their movement and attacking intent have given supporters reasons to be positive.

    Wolves should be aiming for automatic promotion.

    That is chairman Nathan Shi's stated ambition and a realistic expectation for a club with Wolves' resources, support and squad quality. As things stand, this group should be capable of excelling in the Championship.

    Firm predictions are difficult before the transfer window closes on 1 September. Wolves need player exits and likely additions, so the squad that begins the campaign may look very different after the window shuts.

    The challenge is to retain quality and experience while adding the energy, depth and physicality needed across a long Championship season.

    The opening games feel particularly important.

    After a season in which Wolves won only three league games, the club must rebuild confidence quickly. A strong start would lift the mood around Molineux, give Peixoto valuable breathing room and help players believe in what they are trying to do.

    The Championship can be unforgiving, full of organised and physical teams capable of taking points from anyone. Wolves cannot assume their name or squad will be enough. They need to build momentum and show consistency from the first month.

    There are obvious names to watch. Kieran Trippier brings experience, leadership and quality, while Raul Jimenez can be a major figure if he is fit and firing.

    One of pre-season's most exciting stories has been Fer Lopez. After a loan spell at Celta Vigo last season, he has returned looking more complete. He has been sharp, creative and calm under pressure. His movement has stood out, and he looks capable of making a real impact.

    Wolves have the ingredients for a strong season. Now they need to turn that promise into a side we can be proud of and celebrate our 150th anniversary year in style.
