It’s a cut throat business with millions at stake. Trust no one.Mendes will help us, Hobbs doesn’t seem to trust him

Live and learn. God willing we will be back on the front foot too next seasonIt’s a cut throat business with millions at stake. Trust no one.
Yes maybe.....but I don't think there was ever an issue in us selling Nunes to city...was just arguing over the fee...so we can't be sure it was Jorge really.....there had been signs of Nunes commitment and character before...I say it could be an issue because I’m pretty sure it was Mendes who was behind all of the Nunes going on strike stuff last summer.
I don’t see Mendes telling the rat to go on strike he’s always had a reputation of being very good to deal with. Plus we said we would let him go it was just a case of getting the right fee it wasn’t like we were standing in his way.I say it could be an issue because I’m pretty sure it was Mendes who was behind all of the Nunes going on strike stuff last summer.
Have you heard something to suggest this, or is it an unsupported view?I say it could be an issue because I’m pretty sure it was Mendes who was behind all of the Nunes going on strike stuff last summer.
When a lot of our business depends on potential departures, that may not be possible. If we sell Neto relatively early on in the window (constant whispers that Mendes is shopping him about), then GON might have a bit of a "warchest" to upgrade the front three with.It would make a change if some early business happens, so that GON gets not just his first preseason with us, but one with most of the squad he'll have available for the coming campaign.
For all the dislike of Mendes you see from some, he is reputed to be very professional and good to deal with. Its hard to imagine him telling a client to strike. Word would get out within the game and seriously damage his standing.It was implied that nunes lost his head. I doubt mendes advised him to strike.
Its a Wind up !
He’s helped us as much as he’s ripped us off. Just a shame we purchased a few duds in Fabio & Guedes more recently. If we can shift them this summer happy days. Just hadn’t worked out for them. Time for us and them to move on. Both suited to Iberian football really.For all the dislike of Mendes you see from some, he is reputed to be very professional and good to deal with.

That incident, to me, was Nunes trying to push the club, perhaps hoping to force Wolves to accept whatever City offered.
You can't doubt any of the players ability wise mendes has got us..... character yes...guedes n trincao, but not ability..... some were too young in Fabio and Vitihiha....He’s helped us as much as he’s ripped us off.

It was encouraged by Man City too especially the Portuguese playersFrom what I heard it wasn’t Jorge who pushed him or gave him the idea to strike.
He did that all on his own accord……..
The deal was going to happen, everyone on the side of wolves, city and Jorge knew it, a certain toothy git wanted it to happen faster!

Not surprised to hear that, but the deal was always going to happen when the talks officially opened up and wasn’t at risk of not going through at any stage from what I was told
Yes it was agreed but we just didn’t accept the first bid which is when nunes flung his toys out of the pram.Not surprised to hear that, but the deal was always going to happen when the talks officially opened up and wasn’t at risk of not going through at any stage from what I was told

Mendes wouldn’t have been behind it at all
The fact he really has delivered so little at city and we have seen more consistent performances from Doyle who we got in the deal for less than £5m speaks volumes about him……..
Nunes had his moments where you saw his class and ability, but for the fee, they were too few and far between for me. I am shocked we got as much as we did and the “deals” for bueno and Doyle too for him.
That last para reads rather like some folks views, last season and early this one, about Cunha. He came good and l strongly suspect that Nunes will too.The fact he really has delivered so little at city and we have seen more consistent performances from Doyle who we got in the deal for less than £5m speaks volumes about him……..

Do you think bellegarde will come good?
Some players take longer than others but you may well be right. We will see....Nunes had a wholes season to get used to the prem, granted in a poor squad for most of the season.
Cunha came mid season, big difference in timings for me.
Nunes is now surrounded by much better players, better systems and structures and he still looks like the prem isn’t the league for him. He has more time on the ball at city and more options to pass to and he still isn’t delivering. He also isn’t coming off the bench and getting the minutes either.
I think he is one of those immensely talented people who just aren’t cut out for the prem but will be a league leader in Portugal, Spain or Italy.
Do you think bellegarde will come good?
Bellegarde will come good when he plays in midfield not wing or forwardDo you think bellegarde will come good?

Today then hopefully!Bellegarde will come good when he plays in midfield not wing or forward
They have been working on something a new dynamic will help us. Pressing monsters like 4222 Gary’s own tacticToday then hopefully!
This season’s Alex Scott?
From my ITK, this is one Hobbs is very excited about and I would expect that we make moves for him in the summer.
He looks okay to be fair from what Iv seen but wouldn’t pay over £10m when Che Adams and Welbeck are available on free dealsThis season’s Alex Scott?
On that note, does anyone know how he has got on this se?
YepFrom what I heard it wasn’t Jorge who pushed him or gave him the idea to strike.

This is the same Mendes that Nuno in his own words said he told him to trash his own hotel room to get the move he wanted.It was implied that nunes lost his head. I doubt mendes advised him to strike.
Neto to city or Liverpool hmm as long as they can have a bidding war
Jonas wind looks like a goal poacher. No variation of goals on his highlights and no footage of him showing any pace.
Yep perfect for a cunha or hwang to play off etcHe's not very fast which is probably why..
He's however a very good targetman and has been talked about as one of the best hold up players in the Bundesliga. It doesn't really matter how he received the ball, he almost always does well with it.
