WOLVERHAMPTON, England (AP) — Wolverhampton manager Vitor Pereira was involved in a heated exchange with his own fans after a 3-2 loss to Burnley kept his team in last place in the Premier League on just two points from nine games on Sunday. Molineux turned toxic after the final whistle, with Pereira going over to the Wolves fans behind one of the goals with striker Jorgen Strand Larsen and receiving chants of “sacked (fired) in the morning." “We understand the frustration of the people and supporters but what I must say, if we fight united with them, we can win games and compete and achieve our targets — without them it is impossible," said Pereira, who signed a new three-year contract with Wolves last month despite the team being in last place having lost its first four games in the league.
