Steve Bull: Wolves striker Fabio Silva is looking very sharp
I was impressed with Fabio Silva against Luton – he’s come back very, very sharp.


He looks strong, looks like he wants to be part of the team, so I would definitely give him a chance.
Silva stood out for me, but also Pedro Neto. He has come back in good condition and looks very quick off his feet. He could be brilliant this season.
Sasa Kalajdzic put himself about too. He could have been more threatening in front of goal but he did a job and looks like he could be a good member of the squad that offers something a bit different.
I prefer playing two up front and I think Sasa and Silva combined well against Luton.
You can come back stronger from serious injuries these days. They have the technology and equipment to put you back on the field, so I wouldn’t worry about that, it’s just about building his fitness and strength up. We can’t be blaming injuries – don’t be frightened to go into any tackles of headers.
Looking at the lack of goals against Luton, it feels like we’ll be the same old – having chances and not putting them away.
We looked a bit lacklustre up there and in my eyes, being a striker, it’s about having the hunger in front of goal.
In the Premier League you’ll only get one or two chances in a game, and you have to put one of them away.
You can’t be thinking ‘if I miss this, I’ll get a few more’ – it doesn’t happen like that in the Premier League.
As soon as you get one, you need to make sure that is the one that hits the back of the net and wins you the game.
The team needs time to gel and to get to grips with the task at hand. There is quality in this squad, no doubt about it, and I hope Julen Lopetegui can get the best out of them.
I now want to see our starting XI playing against Rennes today to go out there and show Molineux what they can do, as they prepare for Manchester United on August 14.
