Wolves sit bottom of the Premier League, 12 points from safety with just 13 points earned since Edwards took charge in November. His first point came in a December draw at Manchester United, followed by a 13-point haul in 12 games that matches Brighton and Newcastle's totals but falls short of Aston Villa's. The squad's 19-game winless start is a Premier League record, though their recent form shows improvement. They limited Liverpool to 0.62 xG in a 2-1 win, a figure only Arsenal has beaten in the Reds' last 16 games. Edwards emphasizes non-negotiables like sprint recoveries and work ethic, claiming these changes have made the team more competitive over the past 15 games.

Wolves now commit the most fouls per game in the league, a stark shift from their previous bottom-two status.
