Totti Gomez: We knew we couldn't make mistakes, but we still made them, and the result was completely opposite to what we expected.

Totti Gomez admitted that individual errors leading to a goal against Leeds United were a major reason why the team is currently facing relegation from the Premier League. Last weekend, Wolves conceded two goals in their defeat to West Ham United. Then, on Saturday at Elland Road, the team suffered a similar setback, ultimately handing three points to Leeds United.

The captain, making his first start since February, admitted that while the team hoped for a good start in the game against Yorkshire, these recurring fundamental errors would ultimately cost them.

Totti Gomez said: "We knew we had to fight hard to win this game, especially after the last loss. We needed to respond and try to come back after conceding the first goal. We knew we couldn't afford to make mistakes, but we still made them, and the result was completely the opposite of what we expected."

“We made a small mistake in the game, and the opponent seized the opportunity to score. We knew their counter-attacks were very threatening, so we tried to respond, especially in the second half, because the first two goals we conceded in the first half almost put us in a difficult situation.”

"However, the head coach always tried to maintain a positive attitude, and we tried to respond in the second half, but everyone knew it would be a tough game."

When discussing conceding two goals in a short period of time, he said: "This should absolutely not happen. This is the Premier League. You can't concede two goals in two minutes at this level. Especially after the last game, the same problem has recurred, and we conceded two goals in two minutes again."

"This is obviously not our usual style, but these small mistakes can come at a heavy price. It's really tough, it's never easy, but all the players who aren't in the starting lineup will do their best to help the team. Whether we play or not, we will always give it our all."

"It's not easy to come back to the field after a long period of inactivity. You have to work hard to maintain consistency, and I know I've tried my best to help the team. But the team has been making personnel changes during this time in hopes of achieving better performances, which is indeed quite difficult for me personally."

"With five games left in the season, the result is important, but we must fight until the very end. There are only five games left, and we need to continue to give it our all, which is what the head coach has been telling us."
