Wolves legend Bull tells Ebanks-Blake: Once a goalscorer, always a goalscorer

Wolves legend Steve Bull insists Sylvan Ebanks-Blake will come good.

The former Manchester United trainee is yet to score in the Premiership from open play.

But Bull says: "There are people saying he can't do it at this level - the worst thing Blakey can do is take any notice of them.

"I've always believed that if you can score at one level, you can do it at another. Once a goalscorer, always a goalscorer.

"The only thing that stops you as you go higher is whether you still believe in yourself.

"Did I ever have a lean spell? I think I once went as long as 25 minutes!

"Seriously, I do remember going a few games without a goal, but you keep doing the same things and it clicks again.

"Somebody to score goals is the thing which Wolves most need, and I still think Sylvan could be the man to do it. He's only 23 and he could have a big career ahead of him. It's about having the belief."
