    he has the tools to step up

    can’t neglect the fact that yesterday was massive mentality

    harsh to write him off, he needs competition for sure but he’s quick and direct which is good for them prem and when I watch him turn the eye test tells me he’s an athlete, moves like a prem player for me, just needs to click.

    I agree with everything said, and I don't want him to leave. But at least here, he is guaranteed a start week in, week out. Will he get that at a foreign top club?

    What about Chotard at Montpellier?

    They’ve gone down, and will be a fire sale. He covers the back 4 but is lovely on the ball and carries it well. Him and Enzo could be pornographic to watch.

    Not had his best season but neither has anyone else

    was good last year and price depending could be ok addition in fairness. Good protecter his defensive numbers last year were solid

    Mayenda will cause havoc at any level.

    That pace, that power and he went from shooting like he had bananas for trotters to being clinical almost overnight.

    PL defenders will be ‘what the ****’. He’s going big time that lad, we need to enjoy the year or 2 we have.

    Oi, big man!

    He is a lovely player it was a crazy season for them that squad was top half outside Europe, don’t know the politics what went on to see them so spectacularly fail.

    Chotard fits the bill of us offering retention be a steal for under 20

    Always think Souza would be an utterly superb ball playing CB if he played there a while.

    bargain price, maybe premier league football can tempt him

    Modern football makes this view very unrealistic sadly otherwise I’d agree with you. But the gap is just way too big unfortunately

    We need at least 2 good players in every position. We already have some who can be a part of those 2 good players for every position. I’m not saying replace everyone.


    For example i think the starting XI will likely include Patto, Hume, Ballard, Cirkin, Neil, Enzo, Mundle and Mayenda

    Personally I don’t have any concerns about Trai and Cirks.

    They will get roasted a few times early doors but they will adapt, they will both make it.

    I’ll put my favourite ****ing hat on that right now.

    I’m on a rooftop in Gran Canaria right now and the bar guy says we should sign their right winger.

    Looked at the kid and he’s expected to go for 40mill plus.

    Aye pal, we ain’t there yet -<laugh>

    All fullbacks get roasted at some point in the PL - ours won't back down or go hiding and that's the important thing

    We can add 7+ quality additions while still retaining the core of the squad we have now. Look at the bench we had on Saturday, i'm not sure more than 3 will feature for us next season.

    100% mate. And let’s not forget even in the PL sides hate wing backs who bomb on with genuine intent and quality.

    We have 2, and 2 that are bought into the club.

    Gold mate.

    For me -

    Patti - be better in PL as more protection for keepers, great shot stopper.

    Both wing backs

    Big Dan

    Little Dan

    Even littler Enzo

    Big man

    Wilssoooooon

    All will play a lot of games.

    That Vanat’s stats look promising but I’d love to see us look at a more physical type of striker. I’d also like Mayenda to play most of the games for me as his potential is next level

    Worth every cent.

    Yes he could do more, but he is still massive.

    Most assists I believe? Beautiful ball between 2 for the big man Saturday.

    I hear all the time he doesn’t bring value, he ****ing does though, doesn’t he?

    £2million for what he’s given us is robbery on our part.

    Imagine if Mayenda shows the same development over pre-season as Jobe did last year? Terrifying potential

    Looks like Wolves will lose a few this summer which is good news for us. One of the sides that we’ll be battling for survival with IMO
