Goals will keep us up, vows Elokobi

Wolves defender George Elokobi believes the team's attacking abilities will be key to maintaining their top-flight status this season.

Mick McCarthy's men have scored just seven goals this season and capitulated 5-2 at Sunderland last weekend to leave them 16th in the Premier League table.

But Elokobi is confident his team-mates can fire the club to safety.

"We go into games to try and win, not to sit back and defend," he said. "We are always positive in aiming to pick up three points and that's what we'll do throughout the season.

"Attacking is the team's strength and we've got to do that while also keeping things tight especially in the first 20 minutes of matches.

"The team is full of energy and everyone likes to be positive and when we attack we should be able to give most teams in this division some problems."
