Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho heaps praise on Wolverhampton Wanderers

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho heaps praise on Wolverhampton Wanderers ahead of the Premier League encounter between the two clubs on Saturday afternoon.

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has acknowledged that he has been left impressed by the progress of Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The West Midlands outfit stormed to the Championship title last season, and the newly-promoted outfit have recorded eight points from their opening five games of the new Premier League campaign.

Wolves are managed by Nuno Espirito Santo - who played under Mourinho at Porto - and the United boss has predicted that tomorrow's visitors to Old Trafford will have few problems in remaining in the top flight.

At a press conference, Mourinho told reporters: "Really good, last season dominant, and we all know that it's not easy to be dominant in Championship, even if you have the best team, and they were dominant since the beginning until the end.

"Then they had a strong market, great work, great adaptation to the Premier League, getting the points and the performances that makes them feel and everybody feel, I include myself, that they are going to have a very stable season, very far from the problems normally a team that comes from the Championship has."

United currently sit just one point and one place above Wolves in the league standings.
