Rob Edwards was pleased with Wolves' comeback from two goals down to draw away from home and ultimately take a point from Brentford, but also regretted not securing all three points. Before halftime, Brentford had several chances to extend their lead, threatening Jose Sa's goal multiple times and nearly adding two more goals.  

However, just before halftime, Adam Armstrong scored Wolves' first goal of the season, igniting the team's hopes. In the second half, Tolu Arokdare equalized, and the away team gradually took control and gained a clear advantage. Despite currently sitting at the bottom of the Premier League table, the players once again demonstrated their tenacity and fighting spirit, persisting in their battle. Rob Edwards believes that if they had capitalized on their opportunities better, the team could have entered the nearly four-week break with a three-game winning streak in the Premier League.  

After the match, Rob Edwards said: "I have mixed feelings. We didn't play badly, but we made some mistakes. We didn't do a good job defending crosses, both in limiting their crosses and in handling them. This is exactly the problem we've been emphasizing all week, because Brentford are very dangerous with their crosses."  

“Brentford is a team that excels at crossing, which is a major reason why they are a strong team. They can not only organize attacks through short passes, but they can also create threats with their dribbling if you apply high pressure, which is indeed tricky. Overall, however, we believe we had a chance to win the game, and the team performed well.”  

“I think we played well overall and controlled the tempo of the game at times. The goal before halftime gave the team confidence because we were only one goal behind and our performance was not bad, so we believed we had a chance to equalize. We didn’t make many changes at halftime, just some minor changes to the lineup. Tactically, we only strengthened some key requirements, and the team’s performance in the second half was indeed excellent.”  

"Overall, the players played brilliantly. I am incredibly proud of the fighting spirit, courage, confidence, and strength they showed, and they eventually got back into the game and showed their true potential."  

When discussing Rob Edwards' impact on the team, he said, "The team is more confident now, and I think we're in better shape, looking healthier and stronger. We have the ability to keep running in the game and maintain our intensity in the second half, while continuing to get stronger."  

"We've come a long way, putting in a lot of effort and going through a lot of hardship and pain to get to where we are today. Considering the team's current situation, it hasn't been easy. But I think we've shown what a Premier League team should be like."  

"The players are well aware that they are fighting for themselves, for their families, or to qualify for the World Cup. Whatever the reason, you have to perform as expected on the field, whether you are still here next year or not."  

“I hope the team can consistently uphold the principles we emphasize and the work and lifestyle we strive to follow every day. But in the Premier League, if you perform well, that performance will quickly gain widespread attention.”  

"This is reality, and it's something we've been emphasizing, and it's what motivated them. In any case, I hope they can continue to demonstrate their strength and fighting spirit, which is really crucial."  

Speaking about Adam Armstrong's performance, Rob Edwards said, "Adam Armstrong has been outstanding both with us and against other teams. Although he has struggled to create chances lately, he has consistently given his all for the team."  

“He is very selfless. Although scoring goals is important as a striker, he also makes a huge contribution to the team. Therefore, this honor belongs entirely to him, and I am happy for him.”  

Wolves will have more than 20 days of rest before their next match against West Ham United. Rob Edwards added: "I believe the team will maintain a positive attitude and motivation. While we can't guarantee a win or points in every game, we can guarantee that we will give our all and show our desire and ability."  

"With the long holiday, the players can now rest for a few days, and I think they really need to relax. For those players who were not called up for the national team, we will arrange about two weeks of training and a friendly match to make sure everyone is ready to face West Ham United. This match is very important for us."
