Gary O’Neil has left Wolves in 19th place in the Premier League, five points from safety, with only two wins in 16 Premier League games and 11 losses.
Aside from the poor league form, there were rumors that the 41-year-old had lost the dressing room, as players often lost their heads after results did not go their way.
Mario Lemina was involved in a fight with West Ham players, and his teammates, as well as West Ham player Jean-Clair Todibo, tried to calm him down, but he didn’t listen.
Rayan Aït-Nouri was also involved in an incident after the match against Ipswich, fighting with the Ipswich players and staff, including pointing his hand at one of the staff members’ faces.
The fans had been clamoring for a change, and it was evident after the players were booed by the fans on Saturday following the loss against Ipswich.
O’Neil was appointed Wolves manager on August 9, 2023, at the start of last season and guided them to a mid-table finish.
Gary O’Neil was on the touchline 63 times for Wolves, winning 20, drawing 11, and losing 32 games. His winning rate was 31%.
