Wolves' staggering total squad transfer value compared to Brighton, Crystal Palace & Premier League rivals

Wolverhampton Wanderers, without a win in their opening seven Premier League fixtures, have struggled at the start of the new season.

Gary O’Neil’s side have shown signs of promise in matches but have been unable to string together consistency throughout 90 minutes. Wanderers’ mere one point collected out of the first 21 available represents the club’s worst start to a Premier League season since 2004.

Wolves have had by far the trickiest run of fixtures to start the new campaign but it’s still been surprising to see no wins whatsoever, especially considering O’Neil’s men proved they were capable of beating the big dogs last term.

What makes the situation even more shocking is the fact Wolves have several excellent individual players, many of whom have very high transfer values. Wanderers are down in 20th in the official league standings but should be so much higher based on their total squad worth.
