A bet on Costa? Something that’s grossly unprofitable for the Wolves. Watch the famous bull’s header that knocked an opponent to the ground
Comment: Wolves are not having a good season as they are in the relegation zone. The biggest problem for this team is scoring goals, which should be helped by new arrival Diego Costa. However, he hasn’t scored a single goal yet and has only confirmed his reputation as a flashing bull.

Brentford are simply not a team to beat this season. Several coaches and top teams could talk about that. Still, the Wolves should take three points in these games. However, they failed to do that again and also lost another striker.
In the VAR era, any visible payback is absolutely unthinkable. That’s why Costa’s fumble is completely incomprehensible, moreover in the sixth minute of the setup.
But the Spanish striker is already like that and the twelfth red card of his career is perhaps not surprising to anyone. However, it is his first in the Premier League, although he has already seen 26 yellow cards, which is a lot in 95 games.
A much bigger problem for Wolves, however, is the fact that the 34-year-old striker hasn’t managed to score once yet and he has already played 416 minutes in 6 games. Now he will have to wait for his next chance.
Coach Steve Davis will have to think of a new tactic quickly. Preferably how to win games without scoring a goal..
Saša Kalajdžić, who was supposed to be a key man on the top line, is out. Raúl Jiménez is also out, but after a serious head injury, he was never able to return to his old form.
In addition, wingers Pedro Neto and Chiquinho are also injured. There are not many options to build an attack then. It’s a really difficult situation to face now at this club, who no doubt can’t wait for the break that will be like a godsend for them.
But the fact is that Wolves on 16/17. Aston Villa/Southampton (same points and record) are only two points behind, so we can’t even talk about this otherwise very good team being relegated to the Championship at the end of the season.
However, it cannot be ruled out, as apart from Nottingham Forest, I would personally add Bournemouth, on paper the weakest Premier League side, all teams are of very high quality and certainly have the quality to outperform Wolves.
Wolves will now play three times at home, first welcoming Brighton, then Leeds United and Arsenal. Then most can retire to the sofa and watch the World Cup in Qatar, whereupon they will return to the field two days after Christmas Day, when they run out to play Everton.
