Wolves need to cut out errors - O'Neil

Wolves need to cut out "crazy errors" if they are to move away from the bottom of the Premier League, says boss Gary O'Neil.
The Black Country side were unbeaten in four going into Saturday's game with Bournemouth, but conceded three penalties in a 4-2 defeat that saw them drop back into the relegation zone.
"They're crazy, crazy errors at really key stages in the football match," said O'Neil.
"To be able to bounce back from it, and then to give away two penalties by passing one to their centre-forward and passing one to the goalkeeper, who gets tackled by their centre-forward, can't happen in Premier League games.
"We're making too many in key areas at the moment. We are costing ourselves a lot of goals with errors and it has to improve."
Wolves travel to 15th-placed Everton on Wednesday night knowing victory would move them above the Toffees.
They then face three other struggling teams - West Ham, Ipswich and Leicester - which O'Neil says is a chance to jump up the table.
"Where we are in the league is, of course, not where we want to be, but we're still in touching distance of a lot of teams just above us," he said.
"We've come off the back of a four-game unbeaten run, two wins on the bounce that change the outlook for us, and there's no reason we can't start another one of those runs tomorrow night."
