Wolverhampton Wanderers’ season took a dramatic turn following the appointment of Vítor Pereira in December 2024. At that time, the club was languishing near the bottom of the Premier League, having conceded 40 goals in 16 matches under former manager Gary O’Neil.
Pereira’s arrival marked the beginning of a significant transformation.
Implementing a 3-4-2-1 formation, Pereira focused on solidifying the defense, reducing the average goals conceded per game from 2.5 to 1.06.
Key to this improvement was the reintroduction of a back three, featuring the pivotal signing of Emmanuel Agbadou and the resurgence of Matt Doherty.
Beyond tactical adjustments, Pereira prioritized rebuilding team morale. He established clear communication channels, structured team bonding activities, and consistent management practices, earning respect from players and fostering a positive atmosphere.
This holistic approach translated into on-field success, with Wolves achieving a five-match winning streak—their best run since 1970.
Pereira’s leadership has not only steered Wolves away from relegation danger but also instilled a renewed sense of purpose and unity within the squad. As the season progresses, the club looks poised to build on this foundation and aim for sustained success in the Premier League.
