Wolves boss Lopetegui can see Cunha playing as lone striker

Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui says he can see Matheus Cunha playing as a lone striker.

Cunha joined Wolves in January from Atletico Madrid.

He said: “It depends. We have played with Matheus as a forward, sometimes with other forwards, it depends on the moment.

“I think he is able to play in both situations. I think it's about the team.

“When you are playing in one way you have one kind of strength and other weaknesses, and it's about this.

“We choose in each moment, always thinking we can help the team, and always trying to find the solution.

“We try to always put out a team, and a way to play, that we think will help us more to win each match. Of course, the players have to adapt to our choices, but we also need the players' opinions.

“They always tell us what they think and we are aware of it, but we have to take a decision based on the analysis."
