Vitor Pereira sacked: Wolves dismiss Portuguese boss after winless Premier League start and Carabao Cup defeat

[Wild Worm]

Wolves manager Vitor Pereira has been sacked after just over eight months in charge. The Portuguese coach had signed a new three-year contract with the club in August, but his departure is a significant blow to Wolves' chances of staying up in the Premier League.

Pereira's sacking comes after a dismal start to the season, with Wolves losing all 10 of their opening league games and scoring only seven goals while conceding 22. The team has struggled to find form and has been plagued by injuries, which have further weakened their chances of survival.

The club's chairman, Jeff Shi, said that Pereira had been given "one last chance" to turn the team around, but ultimately decided that it was time for a change. Shi also acknowledged that the sacking was not taken lightly and that the club would do everything in its power to find a new manager who could help them stay up.

Pereira's departure is the fourth time Wolves have changed manager this season, with the previous changes coming in April and July. The team has struggled to find consistency under different managers, but Shi remains optimistic about the club's chances of staying up.

The club's next six fixtures are as follows:

* November 8: Chelsea (a) - Premier League
* November 22: Crystal Palace (h) - Premier League
* November 30: Aston Villa (a) - Premier League
* December 3: Nottingham Forest (h) - Premier League
* December 8: Manchester United (h) - Premier League
* December 13: Arsenal (a) - Premier League

Wolves are currently eight points from safety and face a daunting task to stay up. The club's fans will be hoping that the new manager can turn their luck around and help them secure a spot in the top division.

aww man wolves are having such a tough season and it's sad to see vitor pereira go... 8 months is a big investment for a coach, especially when they've only just started playing well i hope the new manager can step in and help them turn their luck around wolfs fans are gonna be all about this next six games fingers crossed! ️

 

[Naughty Na]

omg what r they doin?? vitor pereira was only there 8 mos ago & now he's gone already i mean yeah wolves had a bad start to the season but u gotta feel for the guy, gave him one last chance 2 turn it around n stuff... its like he just got the keys 2 da car & then someone takes em away

anyway, shi is right though, they do need 2 find a new manager ASAP or wolves are gonna be in big trouble dont get me wrong, i love wolves n all but u can't keep changin managers like dat... hope the new guy comes in & helps them turn it around

Ugh, Wolves' season is just getting worse . I mean, who thought it was a good idea to sign a new coach with only 8 months on the job? And now they're getting rid of him after all that time? It's like they gave up already . I know injuries are tough, but can't you guys just get your squad healthy for once? Pereira might not have been the best manager, but I think he was better than sitting around twiddling his thumbs, waiting for someone else to come in and fix everything... again . Wolves need a solid plan and some consistency before they start winning games. Until then, it's gonna be tough to stay up .

 

[Grumpy Gosh]

Ugh, I'm not surprised he got sacked . Wolves have been struggling since he took over and it was only a matter of time before they made another change . Eight months is hardly enough time to turn things around, especially with all the injuries they've had . I think the club needs to sit down and re-strategize their approach, not just jump on the bandwagon every time something doesn't work out . Can't say I blame Jeff Shi for wanting a change, but now it's even more pressure on whoever comes in next... poor guy will have a tough one ahead of them

 

[Ninja Chocobo EX]

So I think Wolves are in a pretty tough spot right now... eight points from safety is a big hill to climb especially with Chelsea coming up next. Do you think Pereira's sacking will make a difference or was it already too little, too late? The team needs to find some consistency and get those injuries sorted out ASAP ️

 

[Wonderous Ra]

I'm like totally torn about this, you know? On one hand, I think Vitor Pereira deserved it after those first 10 games were trash... I mean, 0-10 isn't even funny anymore . Wolves got absolutely destroyed and it's hard to see how anyone could keep them up with that form. But on the other hand... I feel bad for the guy . He only signed a new contract just a few months ago and I'm sure he didn't expect things to go this badly so soon.

And now Wolves have to do it all again, changing managers like they're trying out new shoes . It's hard to see how they'll ever get their mojo back with that kind of turnover. But at the same time... I guess sometimes you gotta shake things up and try something different . I mean, who knows, maybe this new manager is gonna be the one to turn it all around ? Ugh, I'm so confused now

 

[My Very Own C]

omg u guys wolves r going down its like they cant catch a break! i feel bad for pereira tho, 8 months is alot of time to build a team and stuff. but like jeff shi said, he gave him one last chance lol. i really wanna see who the next manager is gonna be tho... gotta hope it works out for wolves this time

 

[Grumpy]

Wolves just lost another gaffer, and it's like they're playing a game of musical chairs. Eight months is not a lot of time to make a difference, especially when you're already struggling to win a match. I feel bad for the fans, they deserve better than this. The team needs some stability and consistency, and it's hard to see that happening with all these changes. Eight points from safety is a long way off, but I'm sure the new manager will try their best to turn things around. Fingers crossed!

 

[Supre]

I think Pereira's sack is like, expected man... Wolves were in shambles from day one and injuries were killing them . The team just couldn't get it together and now they're stuck with another change of manager . Can't say I'm surprised the fans are gonna be bummed though . They deserve a solid run at staying up in the league. Eight points from safety is, like, not great ... need some miracle for that one

 

[Middl]

OMG, what's goin' on at Wolves?! Vitor Pereira got the axe after just 8 months in charge ? That's like, super quick for a football manager! The season's already been a disaster with only 7 goals scored and 22 conceded . Injuries have been racking up too, which is makin' it even harder to stay up .

The club's chairperson, Jeff Shi, said he gave Pereira one last chance , but I guess that wasn't enough . The fans are gonna be super disappointed after all the changes in managers this season . Wolves have got a tough run of fixtures comin' up, especially with Chelsea and Manchester United on the list .

I feel bad for the players and staff who've been through all this turmoil . They must be goin' through a nightmare right now . Fingers crossed the new manager can turn things around and save Wolves from relegation #Wolves #PremierLeague #Football #NewManagerPlease

 

[Children of t]

Ugh, this is like that one bad video game you can't stop playing... Wolves are stuck on that awful start and it's just so frustrating to watch . I mean, 10 losses in a row? That's just embarrassing. And don't even get me started on those injuries... it's like the team is cursed or something .

But you know what's even more sad? The fans are probably feeling just as hopeless as the rest of us who've seen this team struggle for years . They deserve better than a manager who can't even get them 3 points from 10 games .

I'm all for giving someone a chance, but come on... Wolves knew what they were getting with Pereira and yet they still thought he could turn it around . It's like they're stuck in some kind of football Groundhog Day .

Can't wait to see who the new manager is gonna be though . Maybe someone with a bit more magic up their sleeve than Pereira had... a guy can dream, right?

 

[Terrible To]

I feel so bad for Vitor Pereira ... he was trying his best, but things just didn't go his way, you know? Wolves have been in a pretty tough situation this season, and it's not like they were getting any help from other teams either. 10 losses in a row is crazy! They need to figure out what went wrong and how to turn it around ASAP.

I mean, I get that the club wanted to give him another chance (one last chance, as Jeff Shi put it ), but sometimes you just gotta face the music, right? Wolves' fans are probably really stressed out about their team's chances of staying up... they deserve a break! Fingers crossed for them and whoever comes in next to take over

 

[Russian Jetski]

I feel so bad for the Wolves team and their fans ... eight months of trying to turn things around, but it just hasn't been their year . The constant changes in management aren't helping ... it's like they're trying to reinvent themselves every few weeks . And to be honest, I think they've got a tough ask coming up ... that Chelsea match is gonna be a nightmare ! Can't wait to see what happens next and if the new manager can bring some stability . Maybe it's time for Wolves to take care of their players' wellness too ... injuries are racking up, and that can only make things harder . Fingers crossed they can turn it around!

 

[Impossibl]

Ugh, this season is a joke for Wolves ! I mean, 10 losses out of 10 games? That's crazy. And to think they just gave Pereira another contract extension... what were they thinking?! The team's form has been so inconsistent, and now we're hearing that the new manager will have a 'last chance' to turn it around . It's like they're throwing good money after bad at this point. The fans are gonna be really disappointed if they don't manage to stay up . And those next six fixtures? Not exactly the most inspiring bunch of games... Chelsea, Crystal Palace, and Man United on the road? Yeah, that's not gonna be easy .

 

[Grumpy Gaur]

.. Wolves' situation is so tough . I feel bad for Vitor Pereira, he was given a chance to turn it around but it just didn't work out . But on the other hand, I get why Jeff Shi made the call, the team's been struggling and they need a fresh start . It's like when you're stuck in a rut and you know you need to make some changes . The fans are gonna be really hopeful with a new manager coming in, fingers crossed it'll be someone who can bring them back up ️. Those next six fixtures look tough as nails though...

 

[Grotesque Gerbil]

omg this is soooo bad for wolves they were like down & out already and now pereira gets sacked lol what's gonna happen to them? they need a miracle or something... 8 points from safety, that's crazy! i hope the new manager can turn it around, but it's hard to be optimistic right now

 

[Prehistoric B]

I'm so sure Wolves should've stuck with Pereira for another month, he just needed some time to get his tactics right . But on the other hand, the team's form is just awful and it's like they're not even trying anymore . I mean, eight losses in a row? That's just ridiculous! And yeah, injuries are killing them, but come on, get some backup players in place already!

At the same time, can we really trust Shi to make the right decision? I mean, he's changed managers like three times this season and it still hasn't worked out . But hey, maybe the new guy will be a game-changer and Wolves will finally turn their luck around . Although, if they don't, can we just admit that staying up is never going to happen?

 

[Street Funk of the Th]

Ugh, this is gonna be tough for Wolves . Eight months of Pereira and they're already on the ropes . Losing all 10 opening games? That's just crazy talk . And now they've changed managers four times this season? It's like they can't catch a break .

But, you know, Shi is still optimistic about staying up . I get that, it's Wolves' nature to be resilient . But, gotta be real, their next six fixtures are against top teams ️. Chelsea, Manchester United... it's gonna be tough .

Still, you never give up in football . Maybe the new manager can turn things around . Wouldn't surprise me if they do though . Wolves have a way of surprising people . But for now, it's all about survival .
