Supporters of Wolverhampton Wanderers have made some demands surrounding Patrick Cutrone following a club post by the Old Gold.
On Friday, it was the Italian’s 22nd birthday, during which the club posted to mark the day (as per Wolves), which had supporters laying down some demands.

Maybe his gift should be 6 minutes against United in the FA Cup instead of 3

Should Patrick Cutrone start against Manchester United in the FA Cup on Saturday?Yes, he needs the minutesNo, should be full strength |
So far this term the Italian striker has featured in just 291 minutes of Premier League action over 12 outings for the Old Gold in England’s top-flight (as per Transfermarkt).
With a recent article from Tim Spiers also suggesting that the 22-year-old could be feeling homesick (per The Athletic), supporters had a few more demands.
Get him an Italian translator for his birthday

What do we think?
With just a 6.32/10 average rating for the season so far (per Whoscored), it is clear that Cutrone is not making the desired mark at Molineux and this is perhaps due to his lack of game time.
While Nuno Espirito Santo will have his focus likely set on the Europa League and Premier League, the FA Cup offers as a perfect opportunity to give the Italian some much-needed minuted and Raul Jimenez a rest.
