Wolves now have a run of six games that will have a big say on our season.

We had a difficult start with some very hard fixtures, but the games coming up offer a great opportunity to get out of trouble.

We have to take the game to our opponents. Gary O'Neil knows this has to be the turning point and we have to start climbing the league.

He will be aware just how important this period will be, starting with Fulham today.

The international break came at the right time on a positive note and hopefully we can hit the ground running again.

If we'd have lost to Southampton then they probably would have come back with a negative mindset, but hopefully our momentum can mean we give a good account of ourselves.

It will be a tough game against Fulham as we come up against Raul Jimenez and Adama Traore, who might want to spoil the party.

But if we play like we did against Southampton we have a good chance of getting something from the game.

Jimenez and Traore are two players we have a lot of respect for and quite often with Wolves former players come back to bite us, but hopefully we can keep them quiet.

Traore can turn a game, we know what he's like, so that will be a tough test.

We also have our own dangerous attacking players and star man Matheus Cunha is the one to watch.

But it's not a one-man team and he needs some help from his team-mates. Others need to chip in and the squad needs to stay united.

Hwang Hee-chan getting back fit would be a big boost, as we know how dangerous he is.

It takes a while to get back sharpness but if is ready, he is more than capable of getting into this Wolves team.

Up top, Jorgen Strand Larsen has done well, but he needs better service!

A striker up front on his own needs better balls into him but we've overplayed it at times.

He runs into the spaces and gets into the box, but often isn't found as we make too many passes in our own half.

If we improve that, we can definitely score more goals.
