With Wolverhampton Wanderers’ social media team Tweeting out previously that on-loan Benfica striker Raul Jimenez had been directly involved in 56% of our goals so far in eight Premier League matches, fans were obviously impressed with his contributions with the season still so early.

Sitting in seventh place in the Premier League table as real football takes a pause for international action, the Mexican international only has two goals of his own to his name so that shows his work rate at the top of the pitch and his involvement and in response to the Tweet, the reaction from fans was pretty obvious and to be expected really.
SIGN HIM!

Superb, he does a bit of everything. Work rate is phenomenal, he’ll be a big scoop if we can get him on a permanent deal.

Had it not been for great saves by the likes of McCarthy, De Gea & Hennessey, he’d have a lot more. Slotted in effortlessly, pleasure to watch.

Great start, will be even better when he has Traore getting to the byline and feeding him headers from the start!

Probably the best centre forward I have seen in my time supporting wolves (post 2004)

Praise for his performance levels will come as no surprise to anyone who has seen him play and that lends itself to calls for his permanent signature, but I guess it says everything that a number chose to comment on his overall work ethic as although the goals aren’t flowing, he’s more than doing his job.
