Hwang Hee-chan - Suffering from injury Hwang is questionable for Saturday's match against Sunderland due to a small injury, according to manager Vitor Perriera, per Liam Keen of the Express and Star. "We have some sm...

Impact Hwang is going to be a late call and needs some testing heading into Saturday, with the forward suffering from a small injury following the international break. This is a rough development for the club, as he has started in four of their past five games, possibly losing a recent starter. That said, this could force a change for the club, with Fer Lopez and Rodrigo Gomes as possible replacements.

Hwang Hee-chan - Earns starting role Hwang has started in four of the club's past five games but has only registered one goal on five shots during that span.

Impact Hwang was a bench option through the first two games this season, but has now worked into a starting role, starting in four of the club's seven games this season. However, he has struggled to find much movement forward despite having a goal this season, averaging less than a shot per game. He only scored two goals in 21 appearances (five starts) last season, possibly heading for a similar fate this campaign.

Jackson Tchatchoua - Deters attack in draw Tchatchoua generated one cross (zero accurate) and three tackles in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Brighton.

Impact Tchatchoua broke up play continuously Sunday and led Wolverhampton with seven clearances as they conceded late in a 1-1 draw versus Brighton. In his first season in England after making the summer transfer from Verona, Tchatchoua has averaged 2.67 cross attempts and 2.33 clearances per appearance through his first six appearances (three starts).

Jhon Arias - Five cross attempts Arias had two shots (one on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Brighton.

Impact Arias's five crosses (one accurate) led the Wolverhampton attack Sunday as they played to a 1-1 stalemate versus Brighton. The attacker also made a significant contribution to the team's defensive effort, leading the squad with four tackles (four won) across his 90 minutes of play. Across his last three appearances (two starts), Arias has created six chances from 14 crosses (five accurate) and nine corners.

Sam Johnstone - Five saves in draw Johnstone had five saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Brighton.

Impact Johnstone turned aside five Brighton shots on target Sunday but was beaten by a header late in the second half of Wolverhampton's 1-1 draw. The experienced Premier League keeper has been selected ahead of Jose Sa in each of Wolverhampton's last two league fixtures and produced seven saves and two clearances while conceding twice across that span. If Johnstone remains the preferred option ahead of Sa, look for his name on the team sheet Oct. 18 when Wolverhampton resume league play at Sunderland.

Matt Doherty - Surgery successful Doherty underwent successful surgery on his wrist and is already training individually as he works for a return, according to Phil Hayward, the club's director of high performance....

Impact Doherty was known to have undergone surgery, and that has been a successful procedure, as the defender is already recovering and working individually. He will now work towards a return in the coming few weeks, although the club won't put a timeline on his return, taking a cautious approach after surgery. The defender should then start some non-contact training soon, likely eyeing a return near the start of November if no setbacks occur.

Toti Gomes - Won't play Sunday Gomes (illness) is out for Sunday's match against Brighton.

Impact Gomes is still out despite trying to recover from his illness, hitting the sidelines for Sunday's outing. This is only his second missed start all season, so this is a rough loss for the club. That said, he should be fit after having the international break to recover, likely to return to a starting role again once fit.

Matt Doherty - Suffers broken wrist Doherty is out for the time being due to a broken wrist, according to Liam Keen of the Express and Star.

Impact Doherty suffered a broken wrist a while back and has been wearing a cast, but will finally receive surgery, with the defender out for their next match due to the operation. That said, he could also miss out when they return from the break, as he is expected to miss a few weeks due to the injury. This will force some changes on the right flank for the club, with Jackson Tchatchoua as a possible replacement while Dohery is out.

Impact Strand Larsen is back fit after his Achilles injury, but is still rebuilding his fitness. He played 84 minutes against Tottenham in a one-all draw last time out, but wasn't moving at his best and wasn't his usual threatening self. The striker is still looking for his first Premier League goal this season, but should be fit and back starting during Sunday's clash with Brighton.

Impact Gomes is recovering from the flu and is in doubt for Sunday's clash with Brighton. The fact that it's a Sunday clash will give Gomes a bit more time to recover and get back healthy. With any illness it's going to be a fitness and recovery issue before Sunday's match. Gomes could be replaced by Yerson Mosquera if he can't play Saturday.

Impact Gomes had a pretty quiet outing Saturday as he did not record any stats on the attack. On the defensive end he won two tackles, made one clearance and won two duels. He was subbed off in the 64th minute for Jean-Ricner Bellegarde, marking the first time this season he did not complete the full 90 minutes.

Jhon Arias - Eight crosses Saturday Arias recorded two shots (zero on goal), eight crosses (three accurate) and seven corners in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Tottenham Hotspur.

He also played well on the defensive end as he won two tackles, made three clearances and won seven duels. He was subbed off in the 92nd minute for Tori Gomes, right before Spurs scored the equalizer.

Impact Bueno opened up the scoring Saturday with an unassisted strike in the 54th minute after a scramble following a corner kick. It marked his first goal and his first shot of the season. He played well on the defensive end too, winning four tackles, intercepting three passes and making four clearances in his full 90 minutes of action.

Matt Doherty - Back in starting XI Doherty started and went the full 90 during Tuesday's 2-0 Carabao Cup win over Everton.

Impact Doherty started the season with two starts, and then didn't appear in the next three matches. He's clearly not one of the first choices, with his best role at right-back not really part of the Wolves system. If Wolves shift to a back-four, Doherty could get more chances, or if he's needed to deputize at center-back once more.

Jorgen Strand Larsen - Starts in cup Strand Larsen got the start and played 68 minutes during Tuesday's 2-0 Carabao Cup win over Everton.

Impact Strand Larsen played 68 minutes during the win, but didn't get much done. The striker was struggling with an Achilles injury, and played 45 minutes off the bench in the last Premier League match. He appears to be fit once more, and should be in line for his normal leading role moving forward.

Jorgen Strand Larsen - 45 from bench Strand Larsen appeared for 45 minutes off the bench in Saturday's 3-1 loss to Leeds United.

Impact Strans Larsen was back on the field Saturday after missing the club's past two games due to an Achilles injury, earning 45 minutes of play off the bench. He would see some work but not too much avail, recording one shot in his half on the field. He will now look to return to his starting role after returning to play, as he started in the first two games of the season before his injury.

SEPTEMBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

Jose Sa - Concedes three in loss Sa recorded one save and allowed three goals in Saturday's 3-1 loss to Leeds United.

Impact Sa conceded three goals for a second consecutive game and is up to a total of two saves and six goals against over his last two outings. This also marks his third time in four outings giving up at least three goals. Up next for Wolverhampton in league play is a meeting with Tottenham on Saturday.
