'Wolves grind out results but need to find extra edge'

Four points from two away games should not be sniffed at in the Championship.

Wolves showed character to come from behind at Bristol City and earned a point at Wrexham, extending their unbeaten run to six games.

But after the draw at Wrexham, I was left wondering what might have been.

Adam Armstrong's finish gave us the lead, only for Lewis O'Brien to head Wrexham level two minutes later. After working hard to get ahead, we switched off and invited the hosts straight back into the game.

That was frustrating enough, but the second half raised another question.

Wolves had plenty of the ball, yet too often struggled to turn possession into clear chances. Wrexham defended well, and Kieffer Moore had a big opportunity to put them ahead, too. A draw was not an disastrous result.

Even so, it felt like another game we should have won with a little more urgency and quality in the final third.

The comeback at Bristol City showed this team has the spirit to keep fighting. Sean Neave's late winner was a brilliant moment, and those are the results that can make a promotion season. But we cannot expect a dramatic rescue every week.

There is plenty to be positive about. Armstrong is getting among the goals, and Wolves have found ways to keep picking up points. We also know how demanding this division can be, especially with a busy run of fixtures.

For me, though, the next step is turning control into something more meaningful. Move the ball quicker, make better decisions around the box and give the opposition less time to settle. Just as importantly, stay switched on after scoring.

After 15 games, Wolves are in the promotion conversation, and a point at Wrexham is not the end of the world. But if we want automatic promotion, these are the games we have to be winning.

The international break offers time to reflect. Can Wolves keep grinding out results, or will they find the extra edge needed to put teams away?
