West Ham United 2-0 Wolverhampton Wanderers: Ruben Neves warns Wolves after loss to Hammers

Wolves captain Ruben Neves says there can be "no more excuses" after their poor start to the Premier League season continued with a 2-0 defeat at West Ham.

Bruno Lage's side slipped into the bottom three with a disappointing display as they failed to add to their meagre tally of three goals this term.

Without forwards Hwang Hee-chan, Raul Jimenez and long-term absentee Sasa Kalajdzic, there was a noticeable lack of attacking thrust to accompany some neat and tidy possession.

And their hopes of a second-half fight back against the Hammers also appeared to be solely placed on the shoulders of substitute Diego Costa as the former Chelsea forward played his first competitive match since December 2021.
