Wolves great Bull: Absolute pleasure to watch Raul Jimenez

Wolves great Steve Bull admits he's a big fan of Raul Jimenez.

Bull wrote for the Express & Star: "It has been an absolute pleasure to watch Raul Jimenez work his magic for Wolves over these past few weeks.

"He is brimming with confidence, and having been there myself, there is no better feeling – you feel on top of the world.

"Every time Jimenez steps out on to the pitch, he looks like he is going to score!

"You are not going to end up scoring with every single shot in a game, but he has been scoring crucial goals at the right time.

"The mental resolve he displayed on Thursday to get the winner against Slovan Bratislava – minutes after accidentally kicking Renan Bajric in the head – was so impressive.

"Nuno said it last week – Jimenez's contribution goes beyond his goals.

"He holds the ball up well, he runs the channels, and he carries on going right until the final whistle."
