So now we don't have to tempt fate and we are promoted. Who/what do we need for next years season? I think cb am and st as a minimum.



I love this bit no. not only are we up. but now we get the ' my mates dad saw wes browns car on the Compton road today' comments. it's great. read this morning that Harry wants to keep Doyle.

No need to panic. Let's see how the team does at the start of the season - they deserve it, and there is momentum with them, which helps.

Dicko is still young and he may well be a decent Championship striker next season. I don't think Clarke or Liam are Championship standard so I can see another striker arriving. And it probably won't be a star name - not Kenny's style.

Injury cover in defence - esp lb and rb - is always going to be a worry. We've been lucky this season in that we've always had at least 4 of our 5 first-choice defenders available. Elokobi and Foley are options (if we don't sell them) and Ethan is around but we will probably want someone faster/stronger.



Nothing wrong with Liam McAlinden it's Clarke I worry for he's crap



I agree with the fact that KJ doesn't sign big names, but then they turn into star players, eg Jacobs

WILKO



Why say Clark is crap, give him time k.j. nows what he is doing and if h says he is a good player then that's good enough for me

No, nothing wrong with Liam. But is he the striker to challenge for promotion to the Premier? I don't think so, from what I have seen. Nor Clarke, but I would love to be wrong on both of these.

Our midfield and defence and goalie(s) are good enough for the Championship, I reckon.



I see a certain similarity between Liam and Sam Vokes. Perhaps we need to be a little more patient with Liam. Sam has finally come good.



16 Apr 2014 19:47:56
Yes Sam has done well. Hard for him at Wolves, though. Always behind Fletcher, SEB, Doyle in the pecking order. I seewhat you mean about Liam M.



Noway would I let mcalindon go player for future, and rest assured wolves now this as well, will become good player for wolves

Well done to Kenny and the players, great stuff after the last 3 seasons.



13 Apr 2014 08:20:40
Now promotion is seald let's get the title.who would everyone like us to sign for nxt season .i would like alex pritchard.up the wol



Should sign these and maybe others:

Pritchard, spurs - 1 Mil
Jed Wallace, Portsmouth - free
Harry Mcguire, Sheffield UTD - 600k

Sell:
Sako - 3-4 Mil
Anthony Forde - 200k
Doyle - 1-2 Mil
Cassidy - 500k
Boukari - 700k-1 Mil or release him
Tongo doumbia - 2 Mil
Ward - 1 Mil
Johnson - 1 Mil



Nice scouting on fm, get realistic when teams interested in paying millions for Maguire. Wallace playing in LG 2 really a player we need, no.
And why sell sako, yes his contract expires but why sell players that got us back up to the championship.
SDFS



Having seen his tweet on the E&S website might a certain J Lescott be looking for a new club next season. Not a youngster anymore but alongside Danny B would be an asset in a competitive Championship. Even taking account of the excellent season Stearman has had JLs experience could be vital.



Someone's been playing too much on football manager! Why sell sako? Prem teams are looking at maguire

WILKO



Not his biggest fan but keep Sako lose the rest on your list. Sako need loving for him to perform, he knows wolves fans love him. Big George will be gone, needs to play. Love his enthusiasm good in the dressing room, but not good enough on the pitch. Stears will get a new contract, Edwards won't if I am reading between the lines correctly what is being said by King Kenny.



I saw the tweet also, think it was MM inviting him back, telling him he didn't need the money. Would be most welcome but sadly not going to happen, 15 clubs in premiership will be after him.



Doyle, Ward and Johnson for £1M each -you must be joking!



Agree with most of that though most likely not to get Hartley McGuire jed Wallace yes good young player.

Ins:

Jed Wallace - Portsmouth
Scott Hogan - Rochdale
Alex Pritchard - Spurs
Joeleon lescott - man city

Outs:

Anthony Forde (blow up bed)
Razak Boukari
Tongi doumbia
Roger Johnson
Stephen ward
Kevin Doyle

The "outs" are just lists of players we've loaned out so they will probably be loaned again unless a club offers us something decent.

There's also Siggy, who is unlikely to turn out for us next season after a couple of poor seasons no matter how much we want to see him do well.

I expect Elokobi and Foley will leave too. They haven't found their form for a couple of seasons. Maybe also Davis.

Like others have said, I'd keep Sako. He adds something different to the team and whilst he's inconsistent (e.g. taking penalties!), he scores or assists each time he plays.

As for "ins" it's a tough call. I'd personally like to see the team we have now given a chance at the next level. We will win some and lose some, and by January it will be more obvious what has to be done. Some have experience there already and others have come through the ranks. Maybe one or two players will leave anyway (Edwards?). The only questionable player in our first choice lineup I think is Clarke, who I don't see as being Championship standard. But stranger things have happened.



In the one game I saw him Boukari
looked very pacey and useful wide on the left and might be worth another look before we let him go assuming he is over the bad injury he had. This might might be an important position given Sakos habit of drifting in and out of games.



I agree if rather see boukari be given a chance and also sell Sako if boukari is any good because I doubt very highly he's more inconsistent than sako
