Here is how the Wolverhampton Wanderers players were rated from their win against West Ham United.
Rui Patricio: 6
Had a rather quiet game in goal with no West Ham player coming close even to trouble him with a shot on target.
Ryan Bennett: 7
Made sure that no opponent could go past him on the night. Picked a yellow card in the process.
Conor Coady: 7
A calm and composed performance from the captain in the heart of the defence as he kept Arnautovic quiet throughout the night.
Romain Saiss: 8
Apart from dishing out an excellent defensive display, the Wolves ace also headed home from a set piece to break the deadlock in the second half. Was involved in a gritty, physical battle with Michail Antonio.
Matt Doherty: 6
Ran up the pitch with excellent pace but lacked the composure while backtracking.
Jonny: 7
Superb defensive display and was accurate with his passes in the danger area.
Leander Dendoncker: 6
A steady performance in the heart of the midfield. Gave the ball away cheaply on a few occasions though.
Ruben Neves: 7
His darting runs and witty footwork got the better of the West Ham defenders on several occasions. Picked up a yellow card for a late tackle on Arnautovic.
Joao Moutinho: 8
His inch-perfect deliveries from set-piece situations helped Saiss and Jimenez score the first two goals. Besides, he broke down the attacks in the middle of the pitch in a classy central midfielder role.
Diogo Jota: 7
Looked to torment the opposition whenever the ball was at his disposal. Delivered a good pass to set up Jimenez as he sealed the win for his side.
Raul Jimenez: 8
Played the role of the perfect number nine. Kept a cool head in case of both the goals to get past Diop and Ogbonna swiftly. Took his chances well and got the result for his side.
