The Wolves are recovering from Brendan Rodgers’ 2-1 win over Leicester City, and the idea of being in the top four doesn’t seem too far off anymore. But Wolves boss Bruno Lage said they won’t be swept away by their top four chances.
Wolves boss Bruno Lage said: “Our life is always a game. day by day. You want me to talk about the top four. We need to play 14 games. There are too many points to discuss this. Nobody knew me when I arrived, we played three matches, we couldn’t score or score. You want me to tell you that I want to be in the top four. I say game match.
“Our process is very simple, see what happened in the last game and what we learned from it. Sometimes the systems are similar, it has the same dynamics as Arsenal and Leicester midfielders, we analyze the opponents and prepare.
“Our mentality is to always play the game with the ball. We have to work when we don’t have it. The first to defend our goal are the wingers and forwards. It’s so simple.“
Talking about his Wolves boss, his motivation and the upcoming Arsenal game, he said: “For me, my first year in the Premier League, the motivation tells me it’s a team without great players and a manager with a great resume.
“Arsenal is a big club. Arteta was a top player doing well as a manager. Every match is a big challenge.”

“This is our life – even if you are dreaming of some of the things you want to do in your life, you have to go with the solid stuff.
“I want to play with the Wolves every year in the UEFA Cup and the Champions League, but what I know is I will go and try to win the next game.”
