    Sorry just seen this! I will be elated once it’s over the line.

    We’ve needed a different type of striker for years now having had Paulinho, Dost, Slimani etc and Gyokeres is a very exciting new direction. I saw rumours of 20 million euros with a 30% sell on

    It's a big fee for Sporting, a lot of pressure on him. I think he'll do well though, should be the physical striker you need to bring out the best in the attacking midfielders/wingers you have.

    Wolves have been linked with Iván Jaime recently but it seems like he's close to joining Porto now which is a shame, would've loved him here.

    Rúben Vinagre going to Hull. What a weird career he's having. Showed so much promise when he was at Wolves but it seems like he's pretty much just pissed it all away.

    What a way to start off the season.

    Conceição is such a clown

    This was his 24th sent off since he came to Porto. Madness

    Also Pepe getting what he deserves.

    Yeah that was funny!

    Expecting more of the same this season. Gyokeres should make a huge difference upfront for us, but with all the money we’ve brought in there’s still plenty of strengthening of the squad required. Morten Hjulmand is a big money signing for us so hope he can do the business in the middle of the park.

    Quaresma seems to have finally screwed his head on and looks more like the player we thought he could be

    I didn't see that coming lol He did an average season at Lecce I think, he's never been in the "spotlight" last year.

    That’s Interesting, thanks for that. With him only being 24 he’s still got room to grow and our league isn’t quite the same standard as serie a so it will hopefully give him a good chance to develop

    João Moutinho definitely going back to Porto now, been rumoured for months. It'll be a good signing for them for a year or two, he's still quality.

    Nico González, Alan Varela, Grujic & Moutinho is an excellent 4 to choose from in CM.

    Yeah that midfield is tremendous. Going to be a tight battle between Porto and Benfica this year.

    Nice to get off to a win at the weekend. The amount of goals across the league was outrageous :laugh: Hopefully Hjulmand can sure up our defensive play, Zanoli at Napoli has been priced at 10 million apparently and I think we should pay it

    And just realised that their next League game is against Sporting! That could be a little tasty...

    Are Porto tickets often hard to come by out of interest? Me & the Mrs are thinking of spending a long weekend there and I’d love to organise it when they play so I can catch a game.
