COMMENTARY
There was plenty of interest in how Ruben Neves would get on in the Premier League with Wolves this season and it is fair to say that he has not failed to live up to expectation. The Portuguese international has gone from strength to strength among the top flight and his performance against Watford on Saturday afternoon had the travelling supporters over the moon. He was heralded for his efforts in the opening goal for Nuno Espirito Santo and his men and you can see why, showing tremendous amounts of desire and determination to get and keep the ball before laying it off to Diogo Jota, who then delivered the cross for Raul Jimenez to stick it in the back of the net. The scary thing is that at 22-years-old, the 10-cap ace has plenty more to offer in his development and Wolves have got their hands on one of the brightest young midfielders the Premier League has to offer. Will he stay at Molineux over the summer? That is a totally difference conversation but for now, the Wolves fans are loving what he is bringing to their side.
This is Futbol has gathered a selection of the raving Molineux faithful’s tweets:
absolutely brilliant work from neves, great cross from Jota too

The work by Jonny and Neves to keep the ball in the build to the goal was outstanding.

Watford will point to an handball in the build up but I think they’re guilty of one too. Neves did brilliantly to get the ball wide whilst half on the deck, great ball in by Jota. #wwfc
