VIEW FROM THE STANDS

The big talking point among the fans is Europe! Let’s just hope we can get past the qualifying stages! Look out for Max Kilman. Morgan Gibbs-white and Ruben Vinagre are integrated into the first team but it’ll be an interesting year for Kilman, who is a bit older, at 22, and an England international at futsal. Just under a year ago he was playing non-league football, but he made his Premier League debut at the end of 2018-19. He could be given some more first-team minutes this season.

The player I’d happily drive to another club is Leo Bonatini, unfortunately, as I never like to out a player. He was a fantastic goalscorer for us but hasn’t found that form since promotion, and he isn’t good enough for us any more. The one change I’d make to the club would be the ground capacity – I know it’s in the works but so many fans won’t see European football at Molineux this season. I hope we can increase it in the next few years and stay in the Europa League – or even better! The opposition player I secretly admire is Bernardo Silva. I’ve got a soft spot for him – maybe I hope his Portuguese roots will bring him to Wolverhampton one day... The fans’ view of the gaffer is that some class him as one of the best Wolves managers of the modern era. His style of football is the best I’ve ever seen at Molineux. If he left, he should be replaced by Jose Mourinho. He has the links with Jorge Mendes, and – love him or hate him – he’s a serial winner. We’ll finish in the top half.
