The players celebrating Raul Jiminez's fine strike at the 61st minute
The Wolves were very impressive from start to finish, however their fire power at the front needs some more clinical finishing. They could have easily made it 3 - 0 with close calls from Willy Boly, a sitter missed from Leo Bonatini when he was given a free shot at goal as well as Raul Jiminez missing another almost certain goal with the goalkeeper out of position.
That said, Jiminez secured the 3 points when it mattered and with a sublime strike out of reach of the very impressive Joe Hart who is England's reseve goalkeeper. Kudos go to the Man of the Match Matt Doherty who was relentless and tireless in an ever dominant midfield who outplayed Burnley in every aspect in this department.
Rui Patricio kept a second successive clean sheet, this testament to Wolves fine defensive back 3 of Boly, Conner Coady and Ryan Bennett who look to be set for an England call up very soon. This makes it 3 wins on the trot, 1 from the Carabao Cup (Sheff Wed away 2-0), and 2 in the Premier League (away at West Ham and Home to Burnley)
Now, they need to seal the deals when it matters.
Next week they play Man United. I'm looking at a major upset for the Reds with the Wolves again gunning for max points based on their flowing skilful play in all departments.
Prediction : Man U 0 Wolves 2
