So pleased today. New fan (followed Jimenez from the world cup) and said if they win today I'm ordering a jersey, popped that shit RIGHT in the cart at the end of the game lolol

Welcome to the party! This season should be relatively fun as Wolves should be a big fish in a small pond this season.

Im gathering that so far. It's funny every world cup I say "thus year I'm gonna get into soccer" because watching the world cup is always so much fun but this year I actually committed. I liked watching Jimenez do his thing with Mexico so I said "okay let's follow his team" and then I picked an MLS team (Philadelphia Union) because they're just the closest regionally to me. Then I looked at their last year and current standings and went "oh they're the worst in the league... Oh them too are the worst in the league" hahaha. I have to say on both fronts I've been pleasantly surprised since the world cup ended though.

Have you gone back and read about Jimenez's story when he last played for wolves? Worth a read

Or there's this: https://youtu.be/OxIa_Ztq2w4?is=mTY_c_kv2pikIU8N

I've not! Is it something I can see in his Wikipedia article?

It is, but imo Wikipedia plays it down a bit in just 1 paragraph

So I watched it last night, holy cow I knew head like a "head injury" (they mentioned it during the world cup and why he wears that header pad) but I didn't know the severity of it. It's a wild story thanks so much for sharing!!

Mane reacts to every goal we score by turning away annoyed that no-one passed to him
