Jackson Tchatchoua endured a difficult day at Birmingham

A third successive away game is here to fill up our senses. By the end of it, maybe Cesar Peixoto will need a gallon of magnet and a packet of woodbines to get through. The Wolves head coach has aired his frustrations with aspects of the last two performances on the road. To some extent, this has been caused by a collective defensive disorganisation undermining some exceptional attacking spells.

Peixoto was reluctant to single out individuals but last week’s derby at St Andrew’s was clearly a difficult day for Jackson Tchatchoua, and the biggest selection issue is at right-back. It was not just the own goal, this is a player low on confidence and the occasion got the better of him.
