Wolves will be going into next season hoping to do considerably better than they did last term, when a 14th place finish did nothing to build on what was a positive season the year before. 

There have been rumours around a takeover of the club, leaving Kenny Jackett wondering if he will be in a job come the start of August, and leaving one or two players wondering if they will need to find a new club.

The Wolves fans will be expecting better, as a club such as them deserves and needs to be finishing higher up in the table than the mid table finish of last season.

Molineux is one of the finest grounds outside the Premier League so building a team befitting such a stadium and its fans should be something that is high on the agenda of both fans and manager Kenny Jackett alike.

Here, FLW writer Lee Connor takes a look at an ELEVEN which he thinks would be enough to guide Wolves to at least a top six finish...

GK - Darren Randolph

randolph77

Randolph was the number one for Ireland in their recent Euro 2016 campaign, but will almost certainly not want to go back to sitting on the West Ham bench behind Adrian next season.

The stopper could guarantee himself some first team football with a move to Molineux, where he would be more than good enough to take over from current number one Carl Ikeme.

While Ikeme has done ok in the main, signing someone like Randolph would be a better option. If Kenny Jackett could convince him to drop down a division, it would be a shrewd move indeed, despite him playing for rivals Birmingham a few seasons ago.

RB - Dominic Iorfa

iorfa

The young defender will surely start the majority of games next season for Wolves, meaning it it likely he will make the right back spot his own.

Powerful, athletic, and good both defensively and going forward, Iorfa is an excellent young player who has been rewarded for his form with several caps for the England under-21 side.

Iorfa should develop further next season and will be a crucial cog in the back four if Wolves are to challenge higher up the table.

CB - Mike Williamson

williamsonnnn232

The experience centre half was brought in last season after finding himself out of favour at then Premier League Newcastle United, and has impressed enough at Molineux to suggest he will keep his central defensive spot next term.

Williamson should be fine in the Championship for Wolves as long as he can keep a sustained run of games going and not pick up any niggling injuries. Should injury strike, then Kourtney Hause will be expected to step up.

Williamson was one of the star players for Watford a few seasons ago, so Wolves fans will be hoping he can rediscover that sort of form and make the Wolves back four one of the best in the league.

CB - Danny Batth

batth

Batth has made the central defensive position his own since breaking into the first team following a loan with Sheffield Wednesday back in 2012.

The big defender is ideal for the Championship and alongside Williamson should be able to form a partnership to make many a club envious.

If Batth can keep his consistency levels and lead the team like he has shown he can in the past, he should be on for another successful season next term and help propel Wolves into playoff contention.

LB - Matt Doherty

It is hard to select and 11 for Wolves to get in the playoffs and not select the man who cleaned up at the end of season awards last term.

Doherty shone at left back, despite being predominantly a right back, and took home both fans and players player of the year, as well as scooping the goal of the season award for his strike against Fulham.

Wolves probably need some cover or another option for left back, but Doherty will no doubt be the man who Kenny Jackett goes with come the start of the season.

CM - Conor Coady

Conor CoadyConor Coady

With the future around Kevin McDonald uncertain, it will be time for others to step up and Coady has all the attributes to be one of the best central midfield players in the league.

Capable of playing both as a sitting midfielder, a box to box, or even on occasion as a number 10, Coady should be able to step into the  middle and make the midfield his own.

Coady could do with adding a few more goals to his game, but if he can add this to what is already a highly developed skillset, then he might well be one of the standout performers next season.

CM - Jack Price

Jack PriceJack Price

With McDonald out of the picture, it will be time for Price to step up and be the main man.

Price is well liked by fans, finishing runner up in last seasons Player of the Season award and impressing with his all action displays in the midfield.

The 23-year-old will be confident this season of once again performing to a high level, and should revel in the responsibility of being the main man should Kevin McDonald move on or find himself out of the team, as is expected by many.

LW - Alex Pritchard

The Spurs midfielder is expected to depart White Hart Lane and will no doubt have a host of clubs interested in his signature.

Pritchard can play across any of the attacking midfield positions, so moving him out to the left of the three would be no problem whatsoever for the man who impressed so much on loan at Brentford a few seasons ago.

Next year will be a big year for him, and a move to Wolves could be ideal with Jordan Graham currently still recovering from a serious injury sustained last year. Pritchard is a class act at Championship level, and would be a shrewd piece of business if he was picked up.

RW - James Henry

James Henrymss

Henry was third last year in the Fans Player of the Season award, and will no doubt keep his place in the team for next season, playing wide right and providing assists and goals in abundance.

The 27-year-old has over 100 appearances to his name for Wolves after helping them to dominate League One a few seasons ago when he signed, leaving him as one of the more experienced members of the current squad.

If Wolves are to compete, they need Henry firing on all cylinders. If Kenny Jackett can get the best out of him and maybe bring in a new striker to put the chances away, then Henry might find himself right at the top of the assist chart.

Number 10 - Lewis McGugan

Lewis McGuganLewis McGugan

While it might surprise a few to have left Joe Mason out of this team in terms of attacking midfield positions, Mason actually struggled to nail down a certain position within the 11 last term, and so some Wolves fans see him as being accommodated.

McGugan is a natural number 10, and has been left in the wilderness at Sheffield Wednesday following an excellent start to his career with the Owls.

The former Nottingham Forest man is capable of the spectacular in terms of goals, and might well flourish given the chance of a run in a team in his preferred position.

FWD - Lee Gregory

Lee GregoryLee Gregory

Again, Joe Mason misses out, but more through accommodation than lack of talent, and he will have an important role next season no doubt.

However, I have gone for the all action Millwall man as the player to lead Wolves' line next season. With Nouha Dicko only just set to return from injury, he will need time to rediscover match fitness, while Gregory seemingly seems determined to leave Millwall.

He would not cost the world either, and would be a shrewd investment for Wolves as a player with plenty to prove at a higher level as well as having the ability to put the ball in the back of the net.

Kenny Jackett should move quickly for Gregory, and would be well advised to simply just pay the fee - if available to him - to capture Gregory.
