Wolves are beginning to show why they can be a top ten side

It is notable how much Bournemouth stand out in the current Premier League landscape.

In a division where everybody except the top six is looking over their shoulder, many sides have opted for a reasonably joyless approach.

There isn’t too much sense of building, philosophy or attractive football in the lower reaches of the Premier League. Bournemouth buck the trend.

That is why the arrival of Wolves in the top flight was greeted as it was. The Old Gold are genuinely ambitious, free-spending, attractive and a mood of optimism is building around them.

Their fans are dreaming and loving their journey and there isn’t too much of that around at the moment if you’re not a top six club.

An opening day draw with ten man Everton and an early defeat against Leicester looked as if they might be harsh lessons to learn.

However, Wolves now look every inch a side that can finish in the top ten. They have taken points off both Manchester clubs so far this season and are a side that it is easy to see players wanting to play for.

They are making good on those optimistic pre-season predictions and showing they belong in the top flight.
