# Wolves: Fans annoyed by Conor Coady comments

**Conor Coady has taken criticism from some Wolverhampton Wanderers fans ahead of the trip to The Hawthorns for Monday’s Black Country derby.**

Wolves head into the game in [12th place](https://www.skysports.com/premier-league-table), a full seven points adrift of the top half. They are looking to make amends following a woeful 4-0 defeat against Burnley last time out.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side have finished in a highly creditable seventh place in the last two seasons, but they have struggled this time around amid the long-term absence of [last year’s top scorer](https://www.sportsmole.co.uk/football/wolves/2019-20/top-scorers.html) Raul Jimenez.

### What did Coady say about Wolves’ season?

Speaking to the club’s [official website](https://www.wolves.co.uk/news/first-team/20210430-coady-we-know-how-much-it-means-to-everybody/), Wolves captain Coady admitted that his side’s efforts hadn’t been ‘good enough’.

The [£16,500-per-week](https://www.spotrac.com/epl/wolverhampton-wanderers-fc/payroll/) centre-back went on to concede that they had regressed from their high-flying campaigns of the last two years.

Having led 2-1 when they last met Albion in January, Wolves were beaten 3-2 on home soil, but they know that gaining revenge on Monday [would go some way](https://www.skysports.com/premier-league-table) to ensuring West Brom aren’t playing top-flight football next season.

Fan feed [Talking Wolves](https://twitter.com/TalkingWolves/status/1388500241368952837) relayed Coady’s comments, and here’s how some supporters reacted.
