Innocent until proven guilty. We don't even know the severity of the allegations yet...

A few weeks ago Arsenal fans were claiming Mosquera had sexually assaulted one of their players FFS!

My assaulter got the same benefit and guess what? Nothing ever happened to them.

These kinds of accusations are almost never made lightly. And even still the victims are doubted forever. People still don’t believe my story.

A) we don't know if he's guilty yet.

B) we don't know what it is he's accused of. "Sexual assault" is a wide spectrum.

If you think there’s anything you can say to move the needle for me, it’s going to have to be way better than that.

Compassion to the victim would be my go to response having been informed of someone being assaulted, but each to their own.

Thought this was a thread for news on ex Wolves players. Does it need derailing?

Could we not have this discussion on this thread, please.

Definitely plan on funding a holiday by betting against Benfica whenever they go 1-0 down.

They elect club presidents in Portugal, there's an election coming up at Benfica and the current incumbent Rui Costa is very unpopular. Lage is someone who Benfica fans have good memories of (even if they have been slightly tainted) so it's pretty much just Rui Costa trying to keep himself in the job.

Schmidt was a shit manager but he also fought with fans and with the board over transfers. Lage is a yes man who will be grateful for the opportunity, do what he's told and won't pick fights with a notoriously volatile fan base.

He's also cheap and they've just had to pay Schmidt €15M to get rid of him.

A really strange kid, but if he's happy then fair play to him

Bruno Lage's previous contract with Benfica was until 2024.

That’s what he gets for spelling his last name differently from mine!

Shout outs to Ellis Island for changing my family’s surname because they couldn’t be arsed to double check.

How many ex-Wolves players has that ever happened with before?
