The defender picked up an impressive 8/10 for his performance against the Cherries (as per Express and Star), with his link-up play with Adama Traore acting as a key feature.
Doherty, who is valued at £13.5 million (Transfermarkt), has already made 18 league and cup appearances for the Old Gold this term, bagging two goals and an assist over those outings (per Transfermarkt).
With supporters delighted over his latest game for Espirito Santo, he was inundated with positive messages from the Molineux faithful.

What do we think?
Wolves’ impressive wing-back has a sturdy 6.7/10 average rating for the season so far (as per Whoscored), which was added to with a classy performance on Saturday.
He is reliable and ever-present in the Old Gold side, and that only looks set to continue over the remainder of the season and beyond.
