Wolves boss Mick McCarthy is convinced George Elokobi will make a big impact in the Premiership this season.
"It's testimony to how well he's done to get back from that terrible injury when he did all the ligaments in his knee. He was terrific," said McCarthy of Elokobi's performance against Manchester City.
Elokobi is not alone in coming to into the top flight from the lower divisions.
"There's been a few players like George who have taken everything in their stride," said McCarthy.
"We've not seen Michael Kightly in this league yet but the way he took to the Championship was pretty impressive.
"Stephen Ward would be in that category as well. When Ward went out on Saturday I said it was a bit different to Bohemians against Drogheda which he was playing in not so long ago."
