Kenny Jackett: Wolves stability heartens head coach
- Published
Wolves boss Kenny Jackett says the lack of transfer activity at Molineux since winning League One is a good thing.
Jackett replaced Dean Saunders last May and oversaw a year of upheaval following Championship relegation.
By the end of January, he had made 11 signings - this summer only , external and Rajiv van La Parra have joined.
"There's a totally different feel about the place. We're settled and know our pattern, so I'm really happy with how things have gone," Jackett told BBC WM.

Wolves secured promotion in early April last season, and a run of 17 wins from their final 21 matches led them to 103 points.
Alongside a lack of summer incomings, long-serving trio Carl Ikeme, Richard Stearman and Dave Edwards all signed new deals.
Those three, plus full-backs Kevin Foley and Stephen Ward, are the only remaining players from Wolves' Championship-winning squad of 2009.
"If there's a player I think can improve us, I'll move heaven and earth to get him," Jackett continued.
"If we make a good start there'll be a lot of belief here. Starting against Norwich will be a real barometer for us."
