Jose Sa - Playing through fractured hand Sa is currently playing through a fractured right hand according to interim manager Steve Davis.

Impact According to Davis, the medical team assessed the severity of damage to the wrist and determined that Sa couldn't do any further damage to the injury. Kudos to the keeper for playing through the pain, as Wolves need all the help they can get while lingering near the bottom of the table. His efforts certainly were key in maintaining a clean sheet victory over Nottingham Forest Saturday, and next up is Tuesday at Palace.

Jose Sa - Saves penalty in clean sheet Sa kept a clean sheet while making two saves during Saturday's 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest.

Impact Sa helped Wolves claim all three points by stopping a penalty in the 79th minute en route to a clean sheet. The clean sheet was the fourth in ten league starts for the keeper while his two saves upped his season total to 30.

Ruben Neves - Converts penalty in win Neves scored a goal while taking two shots (both on goal), crossing once inaccurately and making three tackles during Saturday's 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest.

Impact Neves found the back of the net in the 56th minute, converting a penalty for the lone goal of the match. The goal was the second of the season for the midfielder as he's accounted for 50% of Wolves' goals.

Boubacar Traore - Available after illness Traore is available going forward after missing the 3-0 loss at Chelsea with an illness.

Impact Traore had an outside chance to start in the last match because of the suspension to Ruben Neves, but an illness kept him out of the squad. He's one of Wolverhampton's only backup options in the midfield, so there should be a start or two available to him at some point, but that may be it unless bigger injuries occur.

OCTOBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Chem Campbell - Extends contract with Wolves Campbell has signed a four-year contract extension with Wolverhampton with the option to further add an additional year, the club announced Thursday.

Impact Campbell has made four appearances off the bench in the Premier League this season, and the 19-year-old midfielder has now signed on with Wolves through the 2025/26 campaign at least as he becomes a more regular fixture in the senior squad.

OCTOBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Ruben Neves - Available against Forest Neves completed his suspension during Saturday's 3-0 loss to Chelsea and will be available for Saturday's match against Nottingham Forest.

Impact Neves racked up yellow cards in four straight games before Saturday in order to pick up this ban. This season, his emphasis has been more in making tackles than taking long shots, so he's recorded 28 tackles and five bookings already while scoring just once from 13 shots through eight starts. When returning to the team, Neves should at least bump Toti Gomes from the lineup at center-back unless the formation makes room in midfield for an extra man.

Jonny Otto - Logs two crosses in loss Jonny logged two inaccurate crosses and made two blocks during 72 minutes of Saturday's 3-0 loss to Chelsea.

Impact Jonny has been healthy for over two months already, easily his best run of form and fitness in three years. What has been interesting to see is Jonny starting all across the back line with three starts at left-back, two at center-back and four on the right. As he's made 21 tackles and logged 15 crosses, Jonny's production hasn't been outstanding for a team that's struggled to score goals.

OCTOBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Nelson Semedo - Starts in loss Semedo won two-of-two tackles during Saturday's 3-0 loss to Chelsea.

Impact Semedo has started on the right flank in four of the last six matches while failing to win a single result when he's on the pitch. While Semedo isn't necessarily the cause, his production hasn't been outstanding with six crosses and three tackles made in his last three appearances. With Jonny a lock to start in a variety of roles, Semedo doesn't have tremendous competition to threaten his position either.

OCTOBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Goncalo Guedes - Creates two chances in loss Guedes made a clearance and created two chances in Saturday's 3-0 defeat against Chelsea.

Impact Guedes was active before getting subbed out at halftime Saturday, but it wasn't enough to seriously threaten Chelsea's goal. Wolves have only scored three times through nine matches season -- the worst record in the Premier League -- but Guedes does have one of the assists from an August draw with Newcastle.

Daniel Podence - Takes two shots in loss Podence took two shots and made a clearance in Saturday's 3-0 defeat against Chelsea.

Impact Podence was one of Wolves' brightest spots against Chelsea but he still couldn't get much going on Saturday. He has taken at least one shot in eight of his nine Premier League appearances this season, with the only exception coming in a seven-minute cameo off the bench.

OCTOBER 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Diego Costa - Has quiet first start Costa made a clearance and was subbed out of Saturday's 3-0 defeat against Chelsea in the 56th minute.

Impact Costa was held in check by his former club Saturday in what was his first start for Wolves. At 34 years old, he's likely to see a fair amount of rotation up front with Daniel Podence, Hwang Hee-Chan and Goncalo Guedes, not to mention Raul Jimenez (groin) and Pedro Neto (ankle) once they return to fitness.

Jose Sa - Concedes three goals to Chelsea Sa made four saves but conceded three goals in Saturday's 3-0 defeat against Chelsea.

Impact Sa was beaten by strikes from Kai Havertz, Christian Pulisic and Armando Broja on Saturday as his side's poor start to the campaign continues. Sa has conceded a combined eight goals in his last three games so he'll welcome next weekend's opponent with open arms as Nottingham Forest have scored just six goals in eight matches this season.

Hwang Hee-chan - Makes bench against Chelsea Hwang is fit and in the match day squad to face Chelsea on Saturday.

Impact Hwang is good to go after picking up an adductor injury last week against West Ham. The forward starts from the bench, appearing six times while providing one assist thus far on the season.

Hwang Hee-chan - Back in training Hwang (adductor) returned to team training ahead of Saturday's trip to Chelsea.

Impact Hwang is back in training after missing just one match because of an adductor issue coming out of the international break. He's moved to a bench role since the first two matches this season, but given the Pedro Neto injury, he could see more minutes ahead of the World Cup.

Pedro Neto - Set for ankle surgery Neto will undergo ankle surgery and be out until the World Cup, according to the medical team. "Following further evaluation and a specialist opinion this week, it is planned for h...

Impact It's a tough injury for Neto, who has struggled to stay healthy and that's in turn hurt any future prospects. The hope is that he can recover over the World Cup and be ready out of the break, but that may be a best-case scenario given this update. It's unfortunate for him that he won't get to play for Portugal. In his absence, Adama Traore could finally sneak his way into the starting XI given the numerous injuries for Wolves.

Hwang Hee-chan - Pictured on pitch Hwang (adductor) was pictured on the pitch ahead of Saturday's trip to Chelsea.

Impact This is a positive sign for Hwang, but it doesn't mean he'll be an option Saturday. Given the managerial situation, there may not be a firm update on his status ahead of the match. His hope is to get healthy and impress the new manager, something he failed to do under Bruno Lage the first couple months of the season.

Joao Moutinho - Sends in two crosses at West Ham Moutinho registered one chance created, two inaccurate crosses, one tackle (won), one interception and a yellow card in Saturday's 2-0 loss at West Ham.

Impact Moutinho had a quiet outing and couldn't help them avoid the road loss. The midfielder received his second yellow card of the season in six starts. He has also yet to score or assist so far, something he will look to achieve in their next appointments.
