Bruno Lage has thanked Wolverhampton Wanderers’ supporters for “making a massive difference” in his first season as head coach.
Bruno lage said: “It was a big surprise for me. I have a photo from our first away friendly game when I came out and the people knew nothing about me but since the first day I’ve felt that good environment and big support from the fans. On that day we hadn’t given anything to them and they were there from the first day giving us a big support. When you have the fans at your back you feel a big confidence. I’ve felt that since that day, not just in the building but outside from the fans.”
With eight wins from their 16 matches on the road, Wolves have gained more points away from home than they have at Molineux in Lage’s first season. Away wins over Aston Villa, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur have provided a vociferous support with unforgettable memories.
Bruno Lage added: “They can make a massive difference. That’s why after the Everton game my first reaction was to say thank you to the fans. When we play away, I really don’t feel the difference. We’ve had a massive support since the first minute so for me it’s not a big surprise that we are playing well in away games because a lot of fans give us a massive support to help us win games.”
