“I HAVEN’T BEEN THIS EMBARRASSED” HIS CAREER IS OVER WOLVERHAMPTON BOSS ROB EDWARDS DELIVERS BRUTAL POST MATCH STATEMENT AFTER 2 0 HUMILIATING DEFEAT TO BRENTFORD AT MOLINEUX STADIUM

Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Rob Edwards delivered one of the most brutal post match interviews of his career after his side suffered a humiliating 2 0 home defeat to Brentford at Molineux Stadium. The result left Wolves fans furious and raised serious questions about the future direction of the club.

Brentford sealed the victory through a dominant second half performance, with K. Lewis Potter scoring twice in the 63rd and 83rd minutes. Wolves struggled to cope with Brentford’s intensity and organization, offering little resistance as the match slipped away from them in front of their own supporters.

Following the final whistle, Edwards did not attempt to hide his frustration. Speaking candidly to the media, the Wolves boss admitted he had rarely felt this level of disappointment.

“I haven’t been this embarrassed in a very long time,” Edwards said. “This is not the standard expected at this club. We were second best in every department. If performances like this continue then people will rightly question whether I should still be here.”

The defeat sparked immediate controversy, with much of the criticism falling on J. S. Larsen, who delivered another underwhelming performance. Supporters voiced their displeasure throughout the match, and social media quickly filled with calls for changes after the final whistle.

Larsen has been at the center of growing criticism this season, and Edwards finally offered an honest assessment of the striker’s form.

“We have to be truthful,” Edwards said. “J. S. Larsen knows he has not been good enough. I have defended him because I believe in giving players confidence, but today his performance did not meet the required level. He has to take responsibility and improve.”

The Wolves manager stressed that the criticism was not personal, but necessary.

“This is professional football. Nobody gets a free pass. If you play poorly, it has to be addressed. That includes me as well,” Edwards added.

Brentford, meanwhile, were calm and clinical throughout the contest. After a cagey first half, they emerged with renewed energy after the break and quickly took control. Lewis Potter’s first goal came after a well worked move that exposed Wolves’ defensive frailties, and his second effectively ended the contest late on.

Wolves fans at Molineux reacted with boos as the final whistle blew, a clear sign of growing frustration. Many supporters lingered in the stands, stunned by the lack of fight shown by the home side.

Edwards acknowledged the fans’ anger and admitted the team had let them down.

“The supporters deserve better than what we showed today,” he said. “They come here every week to support us and we gave them nothing to be proud of. I fully understand their frustration.”

The defeat has intensified pressure on Edwards, with questions emerging about his long term future at the club. While the Wolves board has not made any official statements, the manager’s own words suggested he is acutely aware of the situation.

“When you lose like this at home, everything gets questioned,” Edwards said. “That is part of the job. I will not hide from it.”

Despite the bleak mood, Edwards insisted he has not given up.

“I still believe we can turn this around, but belief alone is not enough. We need action, accountability, and immediate improvement,” he concluded.

For Brentford, the victory was a statement of intent. Their disciplined performance and ruthless finishing earned them a deserved three points and highlighted the contrast between the two sides on the day.

As Wolves look ahead to their next fixture, the focus will remain firmly on response and recovery. Whether Rob Edwards can guide the team out of this difficult period remains uncertain, but one thing is clear. After a night of embarrassment at Molineux Stadium, patience among supporters is wearing dangerously thin.
