"I'm ready to play at this level" - Wolves striker proves his Premier League quality

Jorgen Strand Larsen believes he has proved he belongs at Premier League level after another match-winning display for Wolves.

The summer signing has scored the deciding goal in each of Wolves' last three games, following the vital victory over Ipswich on Saturday that saw Vitor Pereira's side notch a third consecutive win.

Larsen's tally now stands at 11 top flight goals in his debut season in England and the Norwegian is determined to get more in the final weeks of the campaign.

"There's seven games to go and every game is an opportunity to score one more goal, that's what I'm thinking," Larsen said.

"This league is not easy and we were playing against a team below us when you have to wait for the right chance to come.

"Looking back at my career I've done better in my second season, but it doesn't have to be like that.

"I feel I'm ready to play at this level with team-mates around me that help me a lot.

"As a striker I've been up and down this season but I feel like I am where I should be now.

"The goals have been really important, it's nine important points for us in the last three games.

"It's massive for us and I'm glad to be scoring."

Pereira intentionally pointed out Marshall Munetsi's role in Larsen's resurgence in recent weeks and the forward is grateful for the help his new team-mate is giving him.

"Marshall has done an amazing job since he came here," Larsen added.

"He's put down so many kilometres, he's running and fighting for every ball.

"Not everything can be perfect, me and him are quite the same and you can't hold every ball up when playing against really big and strong defenders.

"He's working a lot around me and that gives me the energy to finish off the chances.

"It's nice to have around."
