LONDON (Reuters) - Wolverhampton Wanderers boss Gary O'Neil is under immense pressure after his team suffered a demoralizing 5-3 loss to Brentford in the Premier League on Saturday.
The defeat marks another dismal day for Wolves, who remain winless in the league this season. The pressure is mounting on O'Neil, who took 'full responsibility' for the poor performance.
'We're not getting the results we want, and as the manager, I take full responsibility for that,' O'Neil said in the post-match conference. 'The players are working hard, but we're not getting the rewards for our efforts.'
The match saw Brentford dominate the proceedings, with the team scoring five goals past a hapless Wolves defense. The hosts, on the other hand, could only manage three goals, which proved to be insufficient to secure a much-needed win.
The defeat has left Wolves at the bottom of the Premier League table, with the team facing a daunting task to turn their season around. O'Neil is aware of the challenge ahead and has vowed to work tirelessly to improve the team's performance.
'We need to stick together and work harder to get out of this situation,' O'Neil said. 'We'll keep working and trying to improve, and hopefully, our luck will change soon.'
Wolves will have to regroup quickly, as they face another challenging fixture next weekend. The team will need to dig deep and find the resilience to overcome their current slump if they are to survive in the Premier League this season.
