"I'm told" - talkSPORT reporter now drops worrying Bruno Lage claim at Wolves

It ‘might be a big summer’ for Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Bruno Lage after things have begun to turn sour, according to talkSPORT reporter Alex Crook.

The Portuguese tactician enjoyed a hugely successful first half of the season at Molineux, but a dramatic downturn in form has led to questions being asked over his long-term future.

Lage succeeded his compatriot Nuno Espirito Santo in the summer following a memorable four-year stint at the helm and got off to a slow start in the Midlands.

Three consecutive 1-0 defeats in the Premier League marked the beginning of the 46-year-old’s tenure at Wolves, with a victory over Championship outfit Nottingham Forest in the EFL Cup their only reprieve.

However, Lage’s charges then went on a run of just five defeats in their subsequent 21 top-flight fixtures to spark genuine hope of finishing in the Champions League qualification spots.

But Wolves then suffered another dramatic shift in momentum and have now won just three of their last 13 games, drawing two and losing the other eight, leaving them in danger of dropping down to 10th position.

The club’s supporters let their frustrations be known following a recent 3-0 defeat at home to Brighton, booing the team at full-time, and Lage admitted he had sympathy with their actions.

Crook believes the off-season could be very important to the former Benfica bosses’ tenure at Wolves as he has been informed that ‘all isn’t particularly well’ there at this moment in time.
