Southampton vs Wolves Ratings: Wolves Player Ratings + Fans’ Reaction
Southampton inflicted a stinging 3-1 defeat on Nuno Espirito Santo’s high-flying Wolverhampton Wanderers side thanks to a wonderful brace from young English winger Nathan Redmond who has appeared to be in the form of his life since the turn of the new year.
Despite getting a goal back through unlikely source Willy Boly, Wolves weren’t able to conjure up any of their usual magic in midfield as both Ruben Neves and Joao Moutinho struggled to get a real grip on the match. The games ended in the Saints favour and they did look like the better side throughout the course of the tie.
Here are the Wolves Player Ratings:
Rui Patricio 6
The Portuguese shot-stopper was solely responsible for ensuring that the score-line stayed at just 3-1.
Romain Saiss 3
Had a terrible outing against Englishman Nathan Redmond who seemed to be running rings around the Moroccan.
Conor Coady 5
The skipper struggled to get with the pace of the game as a dynamic Saints attack managed to rip him apart.
Willy Boly 6
Scored Wolves’ only goal of the night but certainly did contribute towards’ the pathetic defensive display
Matt Doherty 6
Made a nuisance of himself on the right flank and was a lot better on the ball that his opposite number.

Leander Dendoncker 6
Possibly the best Wolves player on the pitch, Dendoncker supported the right-sided wing-back very well.
Ruben Neves 4
Was a complete spectator right from the opening knockings of the game and didn’t seem at his usual best.
Joao Moutinho 6
Used his vast experience well in a tough game and did superbly well to set up Willy Boly for their lone goal of the night.
Jonny Otto 4
Yam Valery has really come to the fore at the St.Mary’s and he nullified the threat of Jonny Otto on the night.
Raul Jimenez 6
Put in a fairly solid shift as he so often does but just didn’t do enough in terms of attacking plays.
Diogo Jota 6
Missed a pretty decent chance in the 2nd period but was taken care of well by the Saints back-line.
Substitutes
Adama Traore 5
Began the game with a lot of intent but didn’t really have a massive impact.
Morgan Gibbs-White 5
Didn’t do much in terms of going forward after coming on and lacked any conviction.
