But which players shone? And who had a 'mare? We've rated everyone who made five league appearances or more.

JORDAN GRAHAM, 9

What an impact he made. Just 11 games, but he was man of the match in the majority of them.

Provided no fewer than eight assists and whipped in countless on-the-money crosses, both from set pieces and open play.

Comfortable with both feet and his opposition full-backs had no idea which way he was going to turn.

Wolves' win percentage was 45 per cent with him in the team – and just 25 per cent without. In fact they managed just four wins after he suffered his season-ending injury in January.

Grounded and eloquent off the field, with the attitude to come back stronger.

CARL IKEME, 8

A traumatic start to the season after he was unceremoniously dropped – twice. But since Christmas he's been back to his very best. A true pro.

EMILIANO MARTINEZ, 7

A shaky start after he was thrown into three games in a week on arrival. Once he settled he produced a good standard for 11 games, pre-injury.

DOMINIC IORFA, 7

Attacking instincts were often reined in. Inconsistent, by his own admission, but rarely did a winger get the better of him. A star in the making.

DANNY BATTH, 7

Like so many of Wolves' defenders he started badly and improved. Took a while to get up to speed post-injury. But he shone in final two months.

ETHAN EBANKS-LANDELL, 6

Benefited from injuries to play 18 games in a row before injury curse struck him too. Showed promise to earn his place in next season's squad.

KORTNEY HAUSE, 7

A steep learning curve early on, then injury halted his progress. Produced his best form alongside Danny Batth. Like Iorfa, he can go to the very top.

MIKE WILLIAMSON, 8

A short-lived revelation. Wolves kept three clean sheets in his five games – the same number they'd kept in 16 before that. Need him fit next season.

MATT DOHERTY, 9

Out of the team until December 20. But since then? Wow. An outstanding run at left-back. Made the position his own, providing goals and assists too.

SCOTT GOLBOURNE, 6

Doherty's form dug Wolves out of a hole after they failed to replace Golbourne. Not at his best this season but still a surprise to see him sold.

JACK PRICE, 8

Can't recall a bad performance. Whenever he played well, so did Wolves. Jettisoned when Jackett wanted different attributes. Must find a place for him.

Jack Price of Wolverhampton Wanderers

KEVIN McDONALD, 6

A tumultuous campaign. Contract issues dragged on far too long. Then his form tailed off and he was dropped. A playmaker worth perservering with.

GEORGE SAVILLE, 8

A loan spell at Millwall reinvigorated him. Returned to the team after 15 months out to score five in 19. Tidy, precise and with an eye for goal.

CONOR COADY, 7

Not the blockbuster season he hinted at in those opening weeks. Still finding his role in the team. Far better defensively than offensively.

DAVID EDWARDS, 7

Will be disappointed with his five-goal return. An important presence in the squad. And no one works harder. Played key role over Christmas.

RAJIV VAN LA PARRA, 4

Given chances to impress at the start but didn't take them. Brighton loan freshened him up but bad attitude was his final undoing.

JAMES HENRY, 8

His best season in a Wolves shirt. Very consistent. Seven goals and plenty of assists. Endlessly positive and creative. Potential in the No 10 role, too.

NATHAN BYRNE, 5

Played 24 times, though it felt like fewer. Didn't happen for him. Needed long run in the team but Henry's form didn't allow for it. His time will come.

JED WALLACE, 5

Hampered by early injury, then played out of position. Produced the goods at Millwall and three performances on his return hinted at a bright future.

JEREMY HELAN, 6

A solid eight-game loan spell. Left-back is surely his position but we didn't see him there. Probably didn't do enough to earn a return.

SHEYI OJO, 6

His current Liverpool form will be a shock to most Wolves fans. A spark off the bench and produced key moments but never delivered when he started.

BENIK AFOBE, 7

Ten goals in a struggling side is no mean feat, especially as he wasn't at his free-flowing best. Body language appalling at the end though.

NOUHA DICKO, 5

We should be careful not to put too much pressure on his shoulders, but my, how Wolves missed him. Only six appearances before his injury.

MICHAEL ZYRO, 6

Was in dreamland after three goals in three games, before calf injury caught up with him. Ironically he, Mason and Henry were combining nicely at MK Dons before that horrific tackle put him out for a year.

BRIGHT ENOBAKHARE, 6

Slapped on the wrist after going AWOL for 12 days. Showed glimpses of his potential. Dived too often. His huge talent needs to be harnessed.

BJORN SIGURDARSON, 5

Ah, Siggy. The will for him to succeed was so great. An unlikely comeback, but it didn't have a happy ending. No goals in 28 hours tells its own story.

ADAM LE FONDRE, 5

His goal record speaks for itself but Wolves didn't get the best out of him. If Afobe had stayed it may have been different. Right player, wrong time.

JOE MASON, 7

His lack of starts was baffling, but Jackett is adamant Mason needs strength alongside him. Three well-taken goals. Busy, productive and bright.
