Liam Keen's Wolves player ratings v Arsenal as star man gets 8/10
Following the defeat to Arsenal, Liam Keen rates the Wolves players on their performance.


Jose Sa - 5
Although he made some good saves, Sa was poor with the ball at his feet and should have done better for the second goal.
Matt Doherty - 5
The defender made some good attacking runs that were not found and in defence he was caught out on a few occasions.
Santi Bueno - 7
A composed display from Bueno, who was comfortable in possession and good in his positioning.
Max Kilman - 7
The skipper was organised in the heart of defence and contained Arsenal’s forwards very well.
Toti Gomes - 7
Against a tricky winger in Saka, Toti kept him fairly quiet. The athletic defender was quick, strong and in control.
Hugo Bueno - 6
A solid enough display from the defender, but he could have been more ruthless when going forward. He played quite safe.
Boubacar Traore - 7
The midfielder is full of energy and did really well at winning the ball back, even if his quality is sometimes lacking in possession.
Tommy Doyle - 8
A brilliant display from a very astute midfielder. He was excellent on the ball and controlled large parts of the game at Molineux.
Joao Gomes - 7
Playing slightly further forward, Gomes ran himself into the ground and battled against very good opponents.
Hwang Hee-chan - 6
Hwang made some good runs and tried to get involved, but is still lacking fitness and needs time to get back up to speed. He will be very useful for Wolves’ run-in this season.
Tawanda Chirewa - 7
On his first start for Wolves, the 20-year-old should be proud. A neat and tidy performance in possession, while he also worked hard off the ball. A player with quality and a good future in the game.
Mario Lemina (for Hwang, 51),7, Rayan Ait-Nouri (for Doherty, 75), 6, Pablo Sarabia (for Chirewa, 75), 6.
Subs not used: Bentley, Ojinnaka, Okoduwa, Barnett, Holman, Fraser.
