Wolves have essentially become the breeding ground for Portugal's future stars, thanks to their connections with superagent Jorge Mendes. Even the manager of Wolves, Nuno Espirito Santo, is one of Mendes' clients. All it takes is for the Wolves board to point their finger at a Portuguese target and, if they belong to Mendes, he'll orchestrate a deal to get them there.

This is why the likes of Rui Patricio and Joao Moutinho have signed up to play at the Molineux Stadium next season. In any other circumstances, it's unlikely that these types of players would even consider an offer from a club like Wolves, but the happenings behind the scenes have changed all that.

Simply because of the team Wolves have now, and with the quality of their manager at the helm, I can see them breaking into the top ten this season. They could fall flat on their faces, however, and slip down the ladder to 14th or 15th place, but that's about as low as they'd go, I imagine.
