PRE-MATCH QUOTES FROM BOTH CAMPS AHEAD OF FULHAM’S TRIP TO WOLVERHAMPTON ON SATURDAY.
Marco Silva
“Regarding Wolves and how they can be really tough for us, I don’t have doubts about it. Top quality individual players, in their attack line they have so much quality.
“The situation this week is a good example – another player [Goncalo Guedes] that they have signed. There is a lot of quality and pace in the attack line, and of course experience.
“Two or three really experienced midfielders, that don’t just know how to manage the game in the best way, but can create the moments for the players in the attack line to create problems for the opposition.
“It will be a tough match against, in my opinion, a really quality team, a very good manager, and some individual players who can make the difference.
“It’s up to us to keep showing our good organisation, and when we have the ball we have to be ourselves.
“We’re always looking to try to create problems for them as well because it’s our obligation to go there to match them and try to get points for us.”
Bruno Lage
“All the teams are strong. We can see by the results, we can see what happened week by week and we can see by that game, and what Fulham did last season, how strong they are. They have top players like Mitrović who can score.
“He scored 43 goals in the Championship, he started the first game of the season at Liverpool, and sometimes there are no teams who can score two goals against Liverpool, and just one player scored two goals against Liverpool.
“We can see, not just the striker, but the dynamic of the team, and of course we are talking about the staff they have and the manager they have. I know a little bit of Marco’s work, what he did in Portugal and what he did here in England, in the Premier League and Championship, so it’s going to be one more time, every week, it’s a tough opponent, tough manager, tough players, but it’s also going to be a little bit to look for what we did in our game.”
Harrison Reed
“Wolves are a very good side. They’ve been in the Premier League for a long time.
“Every game in the Premier League is tough, every game is slightly different, but as a team we’re going to focus on ourselves, we’re going to go into the game exactly how we want to be – aggressive, front foot, get on the ball, dominate possession.
“Listen, we know it’s a tough game away at Wolves, it’s a tough ground to go to with the atmosphere, one we’re looking forward to, and off the back of Saturday we’re full of confidence.”
Maximilian Kilman
“They’ve got a really good squad, even the seasons before when they were in the Premier League, so it’s not going to be any easier. Obviously we have to be ready and just be ready for the battle.”
Neeskens Kebano
“They’ll try to come back and try to win the game for sure, because they didn’t start well [against Leeds]. So now they’ll be at home they’ll want to get the three points, I think.
“We all know that we came out with a good game last game, so we want to reproduce a good performance this weekend.”
