Plenty of Wolverhampton Wanderers fans criticised midfielder Joao Moutinho following his side’s 2-1 defeat to Burnley on Monday night.
The 34-year-old featured alongside Ruben Neves in Nuno Espirito Santo’s starting line-up but his team failed to move into the top 10 of the Premier League table.

As per Fotmob, Moutinho only made one key pass, only completed one tackle and won just one aerial duel as Wolves lost at Turf Moor.
Wolves now have a difficult pair of fixtures on the horizon, with a home game against Tottenham Hotspur up next, followed by a trip to Old Trafford to play Manchester United.

With all this in mind, supporters were disappointed with Moutinho, with one fan believing that he has turned into Arsenal’s Granit Xhaka.
Fans blast Moutinho
I agree entirely, hate to say it but moutinho legs looks gone and if we can get £50 million for neves I’d snap your hand off, dendonker is so undervalued when he doesn’t play we have no runners from middle
