Happened recently, so yes, that's a concern. That being said, they just spent a ton on a striker, so while they do often play 3-5-2, not sure those two can play together.

I read a story saying he changed to Mendes for a Valencia move

What does that matter? The argument was that, given more minutes he will score more goals. That same logic can be applied to many strikers such as those I mentioned who were more effective than DCL, including Tosun.

In any case Calvert Lewin isn’t 21. He’ll be 23 this season. That’s not old but it isn’t young for a Footballer either. He’s had two full seasons with 40+ appearances. He’ll inevitably get better as he matures, but I don’t think he is capable of doubling his output.

You seemingly do, that’s fine.

Apologies just turned 22. Surely it makes all the difference, as players who are 22 tend to improve, whereas older players don't.

I think the lads excellent, dominated the defences of Arsenal, United and Chelsea.

In general they are though. Until the window is closed or players are bought or sold it is absolutely pointless getting upset. As we have seen for years, business gets done late in the window and more often than not (especially recently) we do well and end up better off.

As a an optimist, people who ignore all this and chose to cry before the event are just asking for it.

There are different levels I think. People throwing their toys out of the pram are obviously a bit daft, but I think the idea that it’s ‘obvious’ we’ll ‘sign boss players’ is equally daft.

Sorry if it makes me a bed wetter, but I am mildly concerned about where we are right now. It can change very quickly and I’m not suggesting it won’t, but the truth is it looks very feasible that we’ll be without 2 regulars (and in my opinion key players) from last season. If that’s the case then we need to replace them, and get maybe 3 other new players in the next 2 weeks. Of course that can be done, but it’s not exactly ideal to be trying to wrap up 5 deals in 2 weeks and go into the season with half your first choice team never having met each other before.

How many players does that fella manage? Crazy the amount seemingly on his books.

Go away Wolves

Lille's Ligue 1 forward Rafael Leao is now a Jorge Mendes client and this opens the door for Wolverhampton Wanderers to bring him to the Premier League.

We can forget him.

Shusshhhh Bed Wetter!

Half the Wolves team, that's for sure.

He's clearly not excellent at scoring, shooting, or passing. He could be yet, of course. Still young. He still gets his head on everything and is disruptive as anyone pressing into the other team's end...but Leao excels at everything he does not. He's 19 and is just a better CF in almost every other area.

The Jorge v Mino Derby.

The Jorge v Mino Derby.

8-0 to Jorge.

 

[TheBigIguana]

8-0 to Jorge.

At least.

I think Rom binned off Mino too.

 

[stretford blue]

Half the Wolves team, that's for sure.

Seems to have a fair share our chairman seems close to Joorabchian but nothing happening there and riaola is brands agent so there must be some contact there .
Time will tell i suppose

Fair enough but, I am so certain that Marcel and Marco are not going to go into the new season without a replacement for Zouma, Gueye and the obvious 1 or 2 attacking players we have been linked with all summer. Add to that Gomes, Delph and Lossl and I am not in the least bit concerned.
