Some Wolves fans have criticised Jose Sa after he nearly made a costly error in their game at Southampton in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.

The Portugal international almost got caught on the ball late in the first half in front of his own goal, which could have gifted the Saints an opening goal at St Mary's.

Bruno Lage's team looked very shaky at times when trying to play out from the back, and the defence certainly did not seem confident when the 28-year-old made that mistake.

He has big boots to fill after Rui Patricio left Molineux to sign for AS Roma in the summer transfer window, but errors like these will certainly not help his cause in trying to win over the Molineux faithful, even if he did make amends with a splendid double save early in the second half.

These Wolves supporters blasted Sa on Twitter following his pre-interval scare, with one claiming that they are 'not convinced' by him, while another fan even went as far as to say that the 'keeper is 'hopeless':
