00:00 Charlie, on to Wolves now, the FA Cup, it's got to go, discussed, you know, not just in
00:08 terms of the game but as a competition as a whole for them this season, it was all looking
00:12 so so well, you know, achieving the quarterfinal has to be a, you know, some achievement under
00:19 Gary O'Neill but it didn't end in the finest of fashion for them.
00:23 No, it was devastating for Wolves fans at Molony. I was there, incredible game from
00:29 a neutral perspective, I say neutral, I wanted Wolves to win, I wanted to go to Wembley,
00:34 I've enjoyed the run as well as a journalist but just seeing those Coventry limbs at the
00:39 end and the turnaround, what a story in the FA Cup, I just really wish that was Wolves
00:44 on that end of it. I don't think it would have been as dramatic if it was Wolves, obviously
00:48 being the favourites, the whole underdog story makes it even more impressive for Coventry
00:52 but to lose in that style, going 1-0 down, I think rightfully so, Coventry played really
00:58 well but then fighting back, improving at the end, Ryan Aitnouri playing incredibly
01:02 well, Hugo Bueno getting a goal off the bench so late on, about the 87th minute I believe
01:07 it was or maybe even later to make it 2-1. You think you've booked the ticket to Wembley
01:12 then and a few weeks time going down Wembley way, it's a Coventry score, pretty much out
01:16 of nowhere, Ellis Sims and then they get another one just after that, just when you think it's
01:20 going to extra time, it's one of the most dramatic games I've ever seen live, if not
01:24 the most dramatic, it's just a shame as I said that it wasn't in Wolves' favour.
01:28 That Wembley trip would have been so good and just the togetherness and the feeling
01:32 under O'Neill is there and it will continue to be so. If anything, having any disappointments
01:38 is probably going to help the group to grow in the long term and just make them all the
01:41 more determined to do better next season so although it might hurt now, I think it will
01:47 probably benefit in the long run.
01:48 In terms of their squad and their group, it's been fantastic so far under O'Neill this season
01:55 but four big names, Belagard, Neto, Kunya, Hwangi, Chan, they're four big attacking players
02:01 in this team and they're all out injured and it's quite a big blow for Wolves. How do they
02:07 respond in this back end of the season?
02:11 I think it's going to be positive that a few of those names you mentioned are going to
02:14 be coming back hopefully after the international break, if not the week after. So this break
02:20 has come at a perfect time for Wolves, isn't it really? Just stricken by injuries, just
02:24 so tired, it's been a relentless schedule but it looks like Hwangi, Chan, Mateus, Kunya
02:29 and Jean-Richard Belagard are all in contention for Villa if they carry on as they are, is
02:34 what Gary O'Neill was saying. Unfortunately, Pedro Neto looks like he's out for the rest
02:39 of the season now with his hamstring problem so that's obviously a huge blow but the other
02:43 names I mentioned along with Pablo Sarabia who's done really well, Ait Nouri as well
02:47 playing higher up the field. Obviously you kind of want him at left back, left wing back
02:51 I mean but if you can have him further up the field that helps as well and then Craig
02:55 Dawson should be back as well so on the horizon these players returning but not just yet.
