Gary O'Neil: Joe Hodge still in Wolves plans
Gary O'Neil insists Joe Hodge is still in his Wolves plans and has 'no issue' with the midfielder calling for more game time.
The 21-year-old, who has yet to play in the Premier League this season, cut a frustrated figure in the international break when he revealed how unhappy he is with his lack of minutes and that he will seek a move in January if not given a chance at Wolves.
When asked about those comments, O'Neil has given Hodge reassurance that he is still part of his plans and he understands where those comments came from.
"I have no issue with Joe Hodge whatsoever," O'Neil said.
"He's had some injury issues that have stopped his momentum and he's still carrying a niggle or two at the moment, even when he trains and plays.
"He's in my plans but I've been a player and I understand when you're not playing as much as you want (you will be frustrated), but there's about 14 every week that don't play as much as they want.
