Pereira already has a “superb” Cunha replacement at Wolves

Will Wolverhampton Wanderers be rebuilding a large summer?
The wolves were in the relegation area when Vítor Pereira was appointed in December, but he managed to win ten of 22 of its equipment in the Premier League, including leading the club to the first series of six games in the first division since October 1970.
This old gold in the sixteenth place witnessed 17 points from the drop area, but with many of their main origins that other clubs aspire, it is scheduled to be a crowded summer in Molineux.
All this started with the departure of Matheus Cunha.
Why was Matheus Cunha a required man
On Sunday afternoon, it was officially announced that it was joined to Manchester United, where the Red Devils team, which was reported, which was reported of 62.5 million pounds.
This is clearly a blow to wolves because, as in Matt Furniss of Opta’s The Analyst, he was “more influential” during the last two seasons, and describes Cunha as “revelation” and praises his consistent ability to excessively perform his XG statistics.
Meanwhile, Steve Madele notes from The Athletic that the Brazilian had undoubtedly “a wolves player” in this season, adding that the campaign, which is rarely linked to the entire “with one player”, with Cunha always the main character, “for the best and the worst.”
Since his move from Atlético Madrid always for 44 million pounds before the summer, Cunha scored 31 goals in 72 club games, and numbers that are difficult for anyone to repeat.
However, is a current member of the Wolverhampton and Wanders team preparing and ready to become the main man?
The anonymous wolves hero is ready to advance after being
When the wolves fell last summer of Celta Vigo, at first on loan but with the commitment of 23 million pounds to buy, there was very little of the noise, it was fair to say.
Thus, the Norwegian striker certainly exceeded all expectations, scoring 14 goals in the Premier League, which means that only nine players across the entire section managed to do so.
Alan Shearer, the top scorer in the Premier League, praised the performance of Strand Larsen during a 2-1 vital victory over Epswich in April, saying: “The pregnancy play was excellent … a touch and great control,” adding, “I think they seemed the best team” without being during his four-match comment.
Meanwhile, director Pereira described his shape as “wonderful”, adding, “The team helped” a lot.
However, the main question remains: Does Strand Larsen have quality to be the main man of wolves for the goals now that she left?
Well, let’s compare the duo in an attempt to answer this question.

As the table determines, Cunha statistics are largely more impressive, which should not be very surprising, given that it was he who has just got a big step to Manchester United.
However, what the table crystallizes is the fact that it is very different types of the center.
Ryan Benson of Opta has occupied the analyst Strand Larsen, “a fox in the box”, documenting how he is a classic targeted man retained by “the presence and workshops in the center”, a confirmation supported by data, with 15 % of his touch in the opposition penalty area, almost doubling the CUNHA ratio.
While the Brazilian ranked second in the Premier League this season to achieve unimaginable goals – XG, his teammate was not far from the seventh place of the same scale.
Strand Larsen also ranked sixth to win air dueling among the strikers, although his great chances were lost the outcome of 13 papers for improvement.
However, only 25 years old, Norwegian has all the features to be a successful position in this league, so it is well equipped to fill the huge void that the outgoing Cunha has evacuated.
