Wolves success in FA Cup and league should not surprise

-

DO not be surprised that Wolves have reached the FA Cup’s quarter-finals and are seventh in the Premier League. Just look at the quality in their squad. Joao Moutinho, who started in midfield against Bristol City yesterday, has 113 caps for Portugal. Raul Jimenez has appeared 70 times for Mexico. Full back Jonny, who they signed from Atletico Madrid, is a Spain internatio­nal. Their Portuguese goalkeeper, Rui Patricio, was rested for their fifth-round clash and he has 77 caps. Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo has talented players at his disposal and we should not be underestim­ating this team or their experience. They are now just one win from an FA Cup semi-final at Wembley because of it.
