Wolves star Matheus Cunha has opened up about manager Gary O'Neil's first season in charge.
The young coach was brought in on the eve of last season to replace Julen Lopetegui.
Instead of finding the job tough, O'Neil was able to secure a mid-table finish for the Midlands club.
It was hard for me to be honest because Julen was the manager who brought me here," Cunha said, per the Express and Star.
I had a very good relationship with him and I'm grateful to him for bringing me here. You always want to work with the manager who brought you here because you feel confident.
Gary came and I started to be a little bit afraid about what would happen. I lost the manager who bought me and maybe this manager doesn't like me!
But I think it's been the best relationship I've had with a gaffer, ever.
I really enjoy working with him and how he manages the group. I've learned a lot on how to manage a group and hard situations.
I have more appreciation for football with him. He is the person I have a lot of appreciation for."
