Another member of Wolves' Portuguese contingent, Joao Moutinho reportedly turned down offers from AC Milan and Chelsea to join the Midlands club last summer. It was one of the many shocks of the transfer window, but, boy, what a signing he has been.

Some were apprehensive about Moutinho, given his age, but he is still very fit and has enough stamina to last the entirety of a match with relative ease. He has appeared in 32 matches so far this season, assisting seven goals and scoring one for himself in the process.

Moutinho is also an asset from set-pieces, adding a new dimension to Wolves' play and rendering them a lot more efficient from corner balls and free-kicks.
