Fans of Wolverhampton Wanderers have praised Patrick Cutrone following his display against Besiktas in the Europa League.
The 21-year-old Italian started a rare game for Nuno Espirito Santo’s side in the 4-0 victory over the Turkish club which saw the Old Gold finish second in Group K (via BBC).
Despite not getting himself on the scoresheet, although he did get an assist, many Wolves fans were delighted with their young Italian following the final whistle.
Cutrone spin and assist deserves a mention

Thought Cutrone was excellent tonight. Involved in most positive play in some way. Fantastic back up to have for Raul. Dendoncker, Moutinho, Neves, Jota and Burr also excellent. Neto too once he was put on the wing

Great work by Cutrone and Neto for that goal. I really think Cutrone could be a legend if we give him chance.

Will Patrick Cutrone ever get to realising his full potential while with the Old Gold?Yes, he will be given the minutes
No, I fear it won't work out well

So far this term, the 21-year-old striker has featured for Nuno Espirito Santo on 23 occasions, over that duration he has bagged three goals and four assists for the Old Gold (per Transfermarkt).
However, on only four of those occasions has the Italian completed the full 90 minutes (per Transfermarkt), leaving it arguable if the attacker is being given a fair crack at first-team minutes.
Nevertheless, following his assist and 7/10 rating for the Old Gold on Thursday night (per Express and Star), supporters were delighted with the former AC Milan man.
That Cutrone flick for the first goal last night… #wwfc

What do we think?
It is absolutely clear for all to see, there is a real player in Cutrone that just needs the game time and belief to realise his potential. If he can get ample of both then he will be some player at Nuno’s disposal.
