Wolves boss Bruno Lage insists he's not demanding goals from Ruben Neves.
Last season the midfielder struggled with free-kicks and long-range efforts.
But when asked if he will work on improving that aspect in Neves' game, Lage said: “I don't spend time on those things. The most important thing, as I said about Raul (Jimenez), is confidence. We are here to help everyone.
“I don't say anything to Ruben.
“I think it's better not to create pressure – they know their responsibility towards Wolves in the Premier League.
“We don't need to put pressure on these guys because they know. The pressure comes from within.
“For me, I put pressure on myself all the time. I don't need pressure from outside.
“The players are the same. Every time they want to do better. If we start putting pressure on them – 'You have to score goals from free-kicks' – if you score 10 goals from outside the box, then I don't care if you don't score free-kicks!
“The most important thing is go out there, enjoy the game.
“You have a responsibility to play your role. So don't make too much pressure because they already have pressure."
