He's a serial winner and likely a huge voice in the changing room. Think Edgar Davids but with end product and (a lot) less hair.
Davids had loads of end product too, but it was often a tackle or a block.
Perisic's skill is at a totally different level. he doesn't hesitate and can put a cross through at will no matter who is defending.
He got absolutely roasted in the first half. The wolves lad went by him as if he wasn't there. That's what concerned me. Maybe I need to see it again because a roasting like that may not be down to just pace but that's how I remember it.

Good skills once again but he clearly doesn't have the legs/engine for the intensity to go up and down the pitch at will.
I fear for Sess, he either steps up soon, or we need better (and braver).
The useful kind of pointing, when it's 100% the best choice and not the thoughtless kind of pointing.Perisic is such a class player. Always aware of what is around him (and others). There was a long ball coming to Lenglet. Peresic pointed and shouted to him to head it back to Lloris. Lenglet headed it to Peresic instead, whereby Peresic demonstrably headed it to Lloris, and gave Lenglet a telling, showing him there was no one around him.
He always seem to pick the right time to slow down, and when to play fast. If everyone on the team had his game knowledge, we'd win every game.
Excellent as usual. Was surprised that he twice failed to trap a long pass and let it bounce past his foot. Maybe it was the floodlights. It must be WAAAAAAAAAAY harder to see the ball from pitch level, compared to what us fans see.
