Wolves once had the following moutinh on loan, now even better than gom

Want Wolverhampton Wanderers beat a drop?

On Sunday, Vítor pereiraTim put a witty screen, but had nothing to show for their efforts, closely beat up 2-1 by the League League Liega, Liverpool, after Matheus CunhaStrike in the second half they set a very nervous ending at Anfield.

Wolves, therefore, lost five of their last six Premier league Matches, victory over Midlands rivals Aston Villa earlier this month, holding them outside the relegation zone, two points pure from Ipswich and Leicester.

Not too long ago, old gold secured return The end of the seventh place, too Reach to Europa League Quarterfinals, but lately since those days of glory, they had a young Portuguese midfielder in their composition, now acting in Champions League.

Wolves’ best midfielder Premier League

When the Wolves were at its best, they qualified for Europe and regularly knocking big boys in the Premier League, their duo in the middle was at the center of their success.

Rúben Neves joined For the £ 15.8 million reported in 2017 EFL Championship Recording fee, making 253 performances In the old gold before leaving for al-Hilal, Saudi Pro league champions who pay £ 47 million reported.

Even more extraordinary than he saw Neves in the championship was Vid João Moutinho in the wolf shirt.

This is because it is not often a The player who won Three trophies are received by the league, the title of Ligue 1 with Monaco, Europe League and Euros, and will later become Portuguese The second most holy player of all time, Joins the newly produced club.

Still, Moutinho would go to make 212 performances For wolves, s John Percy from the Telegraph Describing him as a ‘key figure’ in the success of Nuno Espírito Santo while he enjoyed, while then the club captain Conor coadia He stated “it’s special, and we’re very happy to have him here.”

Meanwhile, Tim Spiers from athletics He believed that Moutinho was ‘underestimated’ in terms of his importance of the team, ‘playing metronomically effective passes, setting pace and creating chances’, adding ‘Wolves fans adored him from day one’.

Former Welsh International Dave Edwards, who made 307 performances For wolves, described Portuguese star as “the best player [to] Play for wolves in my life. “

So, although Neves and Moutinho contributes to the Black Earth, the second Portuguese central midfielder is now acting at the highest level, but one supporters of the wolves may have forgotten ever played for them.

Wolves’ forgotten Portuguese midfielder Maestro Maestro

If you don’t remember Vitinh’s spell in Wolves, you are unlikely to be the only one.

He arrived on a seasonal loan from Porto -au September 2020, making 22 appearances For the club, scoring one goal, this is an absolute rocket in the FA Cup against North North Side Chorley National League.

The wolves had Option to buy £ 17mwhich they did not take over at the end of the season, the decision Steve Madeley from athletics Described as a huge ‘missed opportunity’.

This is because, after returning to Porto, one season, Paris Saint-Germain paid for his release clause Out of € 40 million (£ 33 million) a year later, and now the 25-year-old has earned Rave criticism for his appearances with Les Rouge-es-be.

After the victory of the PSG Champions League over Brest last year, manager Luis Enrique said that Vitinha “embodies the perfect midfielder,” describing him as “unique”, adding “he is vital for us in his torque.”

Meanwhile, after May’s Coupe de France Final Win over Lyon, Enrique also stated “Vitinha is undoubtedly our player of the season … All our players here are good, but Vitinha is exceptional,” with Zach Lowy from Psg Talk Adding that his climb “was nothing spectacular.”

Nacho Estrela Domínguez-Mopell of Fichajes He notes that he quickly became one of the ‘cornerstone’ of this PSG team. Tim Spiers and Peter Rutzler of Athletics He described him as “the lead role .. Midfield Maestro,” noting that “he considered himself someone who could be as good as Moutinho after being physically developing.”

Although he did not stay long enough to live in that moutinho comparison, let’s look at how Vitinha compared to Wolves’ The most commonly used central midfielder João Gomes So far this season.

As the table outlines, in a comparable number of minutes, Vitinha massively surpassed Gomeje, especially when it comes to statistics in possession, with a Brazilian, fair to him, because he collected more than twice as many complaints and more double numbers and. The same number of interceptions.

All this shows that, unquestionably, Vitinha would currently improve Wolves’ team and that they were not mistaken not to take the opportunity to buy when they had the opportunity, even if he remained in Molineux, he may not have fulfilled his current potential.
