On the pitch things are not great, of course, and off of the pitch we’ve seen too much attention for my liking on Andrea Radrizzani.
Of course, he’s by no means done anything too serious when you compare it to some of our owners but he has attracted some unneeded spotlight after his comments about Wolves and their relationship with Jorge Mendes.
Whether or not he has a point and reason to really have a go remains to be seen, of course, but I, like many of you, think he should have kept things quiet and let it play out professionally, rather than go all guns blazing on social media.
Wolves owner Jeff Shi has bitten back, too, saying that the criticism has been laughable with many fans responding to Phil Hay’s post that has the Express and Star interview in it.
Let’s take a look at some of the reaction on Twitter.
Wolves chairman Jeff Shi tells @ExpressandStar that criticism of their relationship with Jorge Mendes is ‘laughable’ and claims Andrea Radrizzani’s outburst last week was down to ‘pressure’ at Leeds:https://t.co/4QWq2xuc1b

Intense pressure, Wolves chairman would probably buckle under the pressure here too, we`re a demanding fan base.

thats why no decent owner wants us, they prefer tinpot clubs with no pressure

And he`s spot on.

Derby and Villa have both also lodged complaints with the EFL re Wolves too from what I read so Radz is right but he is the only one who came out publicly which may have been his downfall

Aside from this Wolves business which is a distraction. When we have spent over £3M on players thiss season, Saiz and Forshaw, it’s worked. That has to be way forward. Mistake going for quantity over quality.

Burnley is the model Lufc should follow

It is laughable, if we were top under same circumstances do you think Andrea would have a problem with it? #lufc #mot

Radz not being completely transparent about what he knows and doesn`t know ?

And he is spot on. Whether or not what wolves did was shady, it doesn’t matter. We can’t compete with Millwall never mind Wolves.

He’s not wrong.
