The Story in 60 Seconds

Sheffield Wednesday manager Henrik Pedersen expressed confidence that his team's style of play will improve following an extended international break. Despite sitting second in League One with 14 points from seven matches, the club faced criticism after failing to score in four out of five home fixtures across all competitions.

With their next league match scheduled for October 10, the manager stated that additional training pitch time will allow the squad to refine pressing tactics and overall team connectivity.
