"Sensational" - Wolves striker given glowing endorsement after winter move

He has managed two assists in eight appearances, and no goals, but the head coach is delighted with his contribution.

"Loved it," Edwards said when asked for his thoughts on Armstrong's start at Wolves.

"He is a striker, he's a number nine, and he would obviously want a goal or two, but what he has given to the team has been outstanding.

"Whether he's played as a number nine, whether he's played as a 10, whether he's played as a wide forward, I think his work rate has been sensational.

"His all-round game, his link-up has been top class. His hold-up is great, his work rate, he's put in excellent performances.

"I thought the fans singing his name was a really nice touch. It's great that he's made a good impact with them so soon on.

"Hopefully they can see, if they hadn't already, they can see why we brought him here and why we really, really like him.

"I think he's made a great start to his life here."

The 29-year-old has shown a lot of energy in his performances, with a willingness to run the channels, track back and the intelligence to find dangerous pockets of space to link-up play.

Edwards believes Armstrong will finally find the back of the net if he continues playing with the same enthusiasm and the head coach offered a glowing endorsement on the character of the 'proper bloke'.

"He's quite quiet and unassuming, but when he speaks he's heard and he'll have an impact," Edwards said.

"He's a proper bloke, he gets the game, he's no nonsense when he speaks. The truth is there.

"He's really selfless and on the pitch no-one will ever be able to question his work rate or commitment when he needs to be right back there defending, he's doing it.

"If he's going up against the centre-back, he's giving his all and holding it up and linking it.

"He's done everything so far apart from putting the ball on the back of the net, that will come if he continues to play the way he is."
