Wolves tested him almost immediately because professional teams always did that to new substitutes.
Demien received his first pass near the right side of midfield with a Wolves player closing from behind while another blocked the forward option, and the crowd's noise sharpened because this was the test everyone expected—Premier League pressure with physical contact with no time to breathe.
「TRAIT ACTIVATED」
Press Resistant
His first touch stayed close so the ball didn't bounce away from his body, and he shifted his weight between the ball and the defender while letting the pressure arrive before rolling away from the challenge as the second Wolves player tried to trap him.
He played a clean pass into Casemiro before immediately moving into a new angle where he could receive again.
Not flashy though elite in its simplicity.
"Good first involvement from Walter," the commentator noted. "Calm under pressure which is exactly what United needed in that area."
