#8 Rui Patricio (Wolves)
We have seen a massive change at Wolves over the past year, thanks to the influence of super agent Jorge Mendes. They have been able to sign some top class talent, usually with some connection to Portugal. This saw them run away with the Championship title last season, before making an excellent start in the Premier League this time around.
This summer they pulled off yet another impressive coup in the transfer market, bringing Patricio to the club from Sporting Lisbon. He left the Portuguese giants in controversial circumstances this summer, but that doesn’t seem to have affected his form at Molineux. He has played in every one of Wolves’ matches so far this season, keeping four clean sheets, and adapting brilliantly to English football. Wolves have plans to go right to the top, and Patricio will be a big part in that.
