Lots of Wolves fans have criticised Benny Ashley-Seal on Twitter after it was claimed that he is going to be leaving Molineux on loan.
Popular journalist Tim Spiers from the Athletic tweeted a story about the 21-year-old attacker is likely to be leaving on loan in the window, to which many fans responded negatively about the player.
The young forward featured for the club against Manchester United on the weekend, however, he still has very little experience of first-team football and didn’t look quite up to standard; hardly surprising, given the level of the match.
Would you sell Cutrone in January?
If we can source a replacement
No - he has a lot of potential
Yes, cash in
Many fans weighed in with comments suggesting that he has a lot of work to do if he wants to come back at a level of the first-team, with some others suggesting that he ‘lacked pace’ and was ‘out of his depth’ in the FA Cup game.

Niall Ennis more likely to feature in first team in my opinion. That said, he’s always injured.

Young lad didn’t really make any impact against Man U, lacks pace imo

At under-21 level, he has scored five goals in 10 Premier League 2 games this campaign, as well as scoring three in three in the EFL Trophy.
Last season he went on loan to Famalicao in the second-tier – who are now third in Liga NOS – but failed to feature massively, only appearing in five matches, scoring once.
It seems now he has an opportunity to prove himself elsewhere again. If he can score regularly at a lower level, perhaps then he will have a bit more belief from some of the fanbase.
