Newcastle boss Eddie Howe hailed the impact of Bruno Guimaraes for victory over Wolves.
Striker Chris Wood notched the only goal of the game from the penalty spot in the 72nd minute at St James' Park.
Although the latest win was just Guimaraes' first start since arriving in Tyneside, the boss is confident in his ability - despite his lack of playing time.
"I think they'll love him and they already love him to be honest," Howe said ahead of the win.
"He's got that technical flair, but also behind it he's got a real steel and resilience.
"He's a winner. I see that every day in training, he's got a great attitude so I think he is the complete package."
The boss added: "He did very well today in a very difficult game. He showed real intelligence in possession and in terms of his positioning and his desire to get on the ball is so strong.
"There's no fear in Bruno, he wants to be on the ball in every moment and that's in part why we love him so much."
