According to Record, until now, this is the Sporting 21/22 shopping list:
-> Agitator for the attack (able to play in the corridor and in the front);
-> Left defense (to replace Nuno Mendes);
interesting...
Offer them mendy and 30 millThey're a selling club, just as Benfica, Porto, Dortmund, Atalanta, Valencia etc are these days. They're used to losing players and were probably scouting replacements for Mendes as soon as they realised what a talent he was and prior to anyone else being linked. It's no surprise to see this mentality replicated across club media and the fanbase.
All jokes aside.....not a prayer they would take Mendy,he doesnt fit their profile or their wage structure.Offer them mendy and 30 mill

Yeah, not a hope they'll pay the €100k a week or whatever he's on. Mendy might not want to play in Portugal at his age either so it's a non-starter.All jokes aside.....not a prayer they would take Mendy,he doesnt fit their profile or their wage structure.
Are you watching the right player? Except for being left backs they are totally different.Looks a lot like Mendy when we first signed him, except younger and more slight.
I see a lot of similarities in the way they like to dribble, pass inside, even the way they tackleAre you watching the right player? Except for being left backs they are totally different.

Correct. I was fooled by the Jo and Samaras highlights reelsI see this as well. Might just be me but he does not look all that from videos which every player looks good from Youtube videos haha
Not sure if thats just me though
able to play in the corridor
The only highlights Samaras ever had were in the hairdressers.Correct. I was fooled by the Jo and Samaras highlights reels
At 18 his speed, athletisn and power seems overwhelming. In a way he is more a mix btw Mendy and Alphonzo Davies. But yes, the similarities to Mendy are quite clear.I see this as well. Might just be me but he does not look all that from videos which every player looks good from Youtube videos haha

Defenders' highlight reels are usually far less impressive. Zabba and Vinnie didn't have particularly convincing youtube videos when we signed them. Mangala on the other hand looked a beast on YT.I see this as well. Might just be me but he does not look all that from videos which every player looks good from Youtube videos haha

LOL.The only highlights Samaras ever had were in the hairdressers.
