No doubt Mendes was the catalyst to begin with, he got us players we wouldn't have had a chance of getting without his influence. However, the Mendes well dried up in 2020 and resultedly he put us in the mess that resulted in the likes of Silva and Guedes. That almost cost us dearly last season.In spite of Shi......... and thanks to Mendes.
I think we have a better balance now, and this "turning of the tide" is in large part thanks to Matt Hobbs. I still think we can use the Mendes link to benefit us when the right player becomes available, but the over dependence on his clientele is definitely what drove us into last summer's mess. We aren't (hopefully) forcing it any more.
