Don't have a problem with Mendes. Sure he looks out for his clients but he is also respected by the major clubs and generally does not play them against eachother like Raiola for example.
We may be forced to give Balde a chance earlier than anticipated, but we don't have the overbooking at LB for this to be a hinderance.
He is not outstanding in the B but he is good. He has the technical aspects and speed to adapt to the first team where he will have better team mates and better pitches. I've read coaches say that his issue is switching off at times which is something most young players have, and especially at a lower level where you do not have the intensity or pressure to always keep focused.
