Saw a game a few weeks ago that summed Traore up perfectly. Was the match against Villa that Wolves won 3-2.
Wolves first goal was from a corner, a corner that Traore run by going in a great run.
2nd goal, Traore chips a little ball into back post, Wolves player puts it back across the face of goal before it’s bundled in at the far post.
3rd goal, Traore goes on another great run, gets taken down just outside box, Wolves score from the free kick in 95th minute to win the game.
Traore played a significant part in every goal but obvs wouldn’t get so much as an assist for his stats (assuming he doesn’t get one for winning the free kick that resulted in the 3rd goal).
In tropical Traore fashion he also went on a run from inside his own half beating 3/4 players before blasting it straight at the keeper.
