Xisco Munoz expressed his admiration for Wolverhampton Wanderers and their style of play ahead of the Watford game this Saturday, insisting that their opponent’s lack of points is a red herring.
Xisco Munoz said “We have in front of us a very good team. It’s true, they don’t have any points. But they have very good players, they have a very good style, they have a very good manager, they have very good things. They have played against very good teams and they don’t take the results, but we know we have in front a strong team. They know exactly what they want to play, they know exactly which space they want and we will have a strong game. I don’t want people thinking about how they don’t have points – I’m sure we have in front of us very good players and they’re a good, strong team. It’s very important to try to attack different spaces and we need to try to give 100 per cent to take the points because it’s important for us to continue with the same attitude as the last games. But it’s important also, we have a little more ambition to try to take the points, we know we have in front a good team, a strong team, and I’m sure we will have a very good game.”
Wolves trip to Vicarage Road kicks off at 3pm on Saturday. The Hornets won their opening match of the campaign with a 3-2 victory over Aston Villa. In contrast, Wolves are yet to pick up a point this season, having lost each of their opening three games 1-0. They have been quite unlucky not to find the net so far, with only Liverpool and West Ham taking more shots inside the box so far than their 36. Both sides will enter this fixture believing it is a winnable tie, but the Watford manager has warned his charges not to let their guard down against a team that are surely due a break.
