For £15 million apparently. Money in to spend.

Yes, my mistake, euros. As we saw with DW's favourite last season being good in the Spanish league doesn't equal being good in the PL. This scenario is certainly best for everyone imo.Euros rather than Pounds though unfortunately, still, 10.5million profit on a player that played 2 games for us isn't bad going.
It's crazy how much we struggled up front last season whilst owning this player.
He'll wind up being another Gonclaves 'one that got away' type, I can feel it
From our angle do we cross our fingers and hope he replicates his good form from last season but in a Division above one he struggled in (in terms of his Forest time, he was a Leon Clarke/Willian Jose hybrid) or cash in at the point that his value is highest. Also chuck in from January he could sign a pre contract and bugger off for £0.He'll wind up being another Gonclaves 'one that got away' type, I can feel it
Fair point. From what I saw, he carried the ball surprisingly well, passed well and always seemed to be in the right place.Well it isn't nonsense, it's just a different opinion.
I can go on my eyes and see he was bang average to awful the times I've seen him or the stats which are equally as damning.
You obviously saw something different. What did he do well in your opinion?
Might have been talking about Frank Bruno. Ya know what I meanPretty sure Bernado Silva bigged Bruno up as one of his influences in his earlier years. I may be talking bollocks though..
Yes, this from the Athletic. It was Cancelo not Silva who called him a father figure.
"Lage’s amiable and driven personality saw him thrive at Benfica’s academy, working first at school level then up through the age groups, winning two national titles and two district championships along the way with players like Ruben Dias, Bernardo Silva, Joao Cancelo and two names very familiar to Wolves supporters; Helder Costa and Ivan Cavaleiro. He was a mentor to them all. Cancelo calls Lage one of his biggest influences and compares him to a father figure."
I think I read somewhere he coached him in the youth set up and had a big influence on him mate. Cancelo aswell apparently.
15m is cheap for a striker like thatFor £15 million apparently. Money in to spend.
Not when he's in the last 12 months of his deal and isn't willing to sign a new one. It's decent business.15m is cheap for a striker like that
yeah, we should have acted much earlierNot when he's in the last 12 months of his deal and isn't willing to sign a new one. It's decent business.
