For the second month running, Mario Lemina has been voted the Monster Player of the Month for his efforts in December.
During a month where Wolves won four games, the midfielder shone and continued his recent form in front of goal when he struck in victories over Chelsea and Brentford.
The 30-year-old played his part in the win over Burnley and his incisive pass created the opening for Pablo Sarabia to assist Matheus Cunha for the equaliser against Nottingham Forest.
In the Christmas Eve win over Chelsea, he was already running the show, leading the way for interceptions and getting Wolves back in control, before he nodded in the opening goal in front of the South Bank.
One year of Super Mario 🫶

He was equally impressive at Brentford, where he once again opened the scoring, heading in Sarabia’s cross, setting Wolves on their way to a big three points on the road.
Lemina missed the final game of the month against Everton due to the sad passing of his father, but his team mates dedicated the victory to him, such is the impression he’s had at Molineux.
He claimed the monthly award from the supporters ahead of Hee Chan Hwang in second and Cunha in third.
