The big talking point among the

fans is how we add to our small squad. Wolves have done well using fewer than 20 players regularly last season, but we must strengthen. This season will be different to

last because we have more experience at this level.

I won’t be happy unless Wolves qualify for Europe again, even if it’s crazy to think how far we’ve come in such a short space of time. Our most underrated player is

Jonny. The consistent wing- back very rarely puts a foot wrong.

Look out for Max Kilman, a young ball- playing defender who spent the majority of his youth playing in non- league and even for England’s futsal team. Hopes are high. The player I’d happily drive to

another club is the forward Leo Bonatini, who just hasn’t cut it over the past couple of years.

The one change I’d make would

be redevelopi­ng Molineux. The club have been teasing that parts of our stadium will be revamped for years. Save the date for the first Black Country derby for eight years. We need to make amends for a 5- 1 home defeat in February 2012.

Our key player will be Raul Jimenez. The Mexican striker has shown he can perform consistent­ly and score goals across two seasons in the Premier League, and Wolves will rely on him again. The fans’ opinion of the gaffer

is that he is fantastic. Nuno has shown the world what he is capable of. He can be stubborn, but never fails to amaze us with the club’s continued success. We’ll finish in the top seven.
