Romain Saiss deal expected to go through. more to come.



22 Aug 2016 23:29:30
Is this according to the E&S or are you up a tree? If you're up a tree, is there any sign of Jordan Rhodes? Apparently Mr Blobby from Norwich has entered the race for Rhodes so we need to act fast.



23 Aug 2016 07:19:19
Where did that wackier go from who was up the tree at compton.



22 Aug 2016 21:48:14
Not a rumour at all guys but a player I've just seen mentioned on another site would do really well down here. Might seem unrealistic but he hasn't played for a year.
Jay Rodriguez. was nearly on Jamie Vardy's level a couple of years ago. Pacy, can play all 4 forward positions and is looking to re-build his career.
Worth a punt?



22 Aug 2016 22:16:04
Sandwell supposedly after him too.



22 Aug 2016 22:18:22
Too many prem clubs including teams with European football such as West Ham after him, plus Southampton don't want to sell so as much as he'd be a great signing I'm afraid we have no chance whilst in the Championship.



22 Aug 2016 20:06:37
Oniange: 6 foot 3
Bodvarsson: 6 foot 3
Borthwick Jackson: 6 foot 3
Romain Saiss: 6 foot 3

Should have a pretty good basketball team by the end of the week!



22 Aug 2016 22:35:42
Remember watching wolves play Arsenal at home the first time we went up - they looked massive compared to us - the whole team 6ft plus - towered over Rae and Cameron. if I remember right, they daint lose all season.



23 Aug 2016 10:51:00
Add Jack Price and they might look like that silhouette of the Jackson 5 in the early 70s.



22 Aug 2016 17:23:47
I sum times have to laff on ere, certain people am moaning cus we ent spent any money then all of a sudden, we mek 2 LOAN signings and jeff shis a legend haha.



22 Aug 2016 20:11:08
I'm still waiting for the big money signings. Loanies are all good but as you know they can be recalled at any point.



22 Aug 2016 20:12:22
Give Huddersfield 200 tickets at the mol and give free tickets to wolves fans.
Mickey Mouse club hello
Up there with Bolton.



22 Aug 2016 21:36:42
They are bloody tossers.

Scared of us, so trying to buy their own crowd.
Bah Humbug.



22 Aug 2016 22:22:23
WWFC - For season long loans such as ours only if they have a recall clause in the loan contract (Cameron Borthwick Jackson does but I've not seen it mentioned on the others so we're probably safe on Texeira, Costa or John) .



23 Aug 2016 10:52:42
For this quality of player we're better renting than buying. If we get promoted we can buy. Suits Wolves, with higher turnover than most in this division.



23 Aug 2016 18:26:56
Think about this,

The team that took B/ Ham apart on Saturday, (that's what happened) were made up of last years team and 1 newbie, Bodvarsson.

Off went Evans and on came Edwards (last year)
Saville came on (last year)
Then Prince had a cameo run out
Get them fired up and I think we have enough Loanies to be able to miss one or two should there be recalls.



22 Aug 2016 17:06:56
I'm still waiting for the 2 Sunderland players haha.



23 Aug 2016 10:53:49
And Balotelli, Luisao, Talisca, Bjarnesson, . even Nugent, Martin, Rhodes.



22 Aug 2016 16:13:59
Oh I like it, like it, like it! 2 new loans.
Luisao isn't going to get his last big payday at Benfica whereas we seem to want him. He probably wouldn't play all the time but surely he would have a massive impact on our young defenders.
Well Mr Jeff you have done what you promised and might there be more to come? I'm thinking you have made smart moves so far without breaking the bank but do you still have a wedge of cash in your back pocket?
Could we have a big enough squad to compete in the cup competitions this year? Pinch me somebody!



22 Aug 2016 18:03:58
If we could land Luisao then with the Prince, Danny boy and Williamson we have a real core of leaders to complement the youth and pace. Huddersfield won't be easy they play a high pressing game and they will be looking to pressure our young defenders. Our recent record there is pretty awful apart from the magic show in Feb 2015. Still fancy us though.



22 Aug 2016 21:39:42
Just been talking to Jordan Graham at the U23's.
He's 2 Months away from playing, Nice Brucie bonus around November time.



23 Aug 2016 10:55:39
Thanks StuWolf, with Wallace, Henry and the new signings we have a few options, especially with Graham and Zyro eventually returning. Is Nathan Byrne still around?



22 Aug 2016 15:07:52
Rhodes and big John's mate from Iceland we will be a major force. I've said b4 get sako back but come to my senses sako is the past new team spirit new style no big egos in our team just lads that want to play come on me babbies!!



22 Aug 2016 15:27:57
well said.



22 Aug 2016 15:29:14
If we got both Rhodes and Thor we'd be totally sorted.



22 Aug 2016 15:29:46
Liking your work Mr. Shi.



22 Aug 2016 14:37:14
Dicko playing 2rd game tonite. mite be back for satderday I hope to make bench.



22 Aug 2016 16:59:23
Wickes have benches on offer at mi, save ya energy mate.



22 Aug 2016 13:48:18
If he is so good how come Boro are selling so soon after signing him?



22 Aug 2016 13:56:02
Fell out with their gaffer so they say? Their loss will most definitely be our gain if we get him.



22 Aug 2016 13:24:12
Ola John signed as well. Happy days.



22 Aug 2016 13:23:45
Jackson as signed from man u guys.



22 Aug 2016 13:30:18
Ola John and Cameron Borthwick-Jackson sign on loan.



22 Aug 2016 13:28:50
Although I feel dirty saying it I'd have Afobe back, out of that list. Right age and knows where the net is in the champ.



22 Aug 2016 15:25:07
Cant agree he showed a poor attitude towards the end, and let's not over estimate he had a good 12 months but think Rhodes is a better option.



22 Aug 2016 17:40:30
I know what is being said regarding Afobe and attitude however reports said there had been bust ups on the training ground with KJ regarding positional play etc. We know how good he is and he is the right age so I would gladly eat some humble pie and have him back. I just cannot see Bournmouth releasing him or selling him to us after the exchange of words between the clubs.



22 Aug 2016 13:09:59
With Wolves seemingly on the look out for a new striker, who would you pick out of these rumoured forwards

Rhodes (£12m)
Martin (£6m)
Afobe (£10m)
A Kone (£3m-£5m)
Sylla (£5m)
Balotelli (Loan)
Assombalonga (£12m)

Mason And Bod are doing the business right now and with Dicko coming back, and Ennis showing promise, do we need a striker?



22 Aug 2016 13:25:03
Rhodes allday.



22 Aug 2016 13:37:09
Yes imo. Rhodes for me.



22 Aug 2016 12:04:10
Middlesborough have told Jorden Rhodes he is free to leave the club and put him up for sale. i think he would be great for us and proven in the championship.

22 Aug 2016 12:39:13
To sit on the bench? Don't think so.



22 Aug 2016 13:32:41
We need decent Bench players though. teams who generally do well in the league have depth in numbers. if someone gets injured or suspended we need adaquate reinforcements if he sits on the bench or not. it's not about 11 players it's about the whole squad.



22 Aug 2016 11:31:56
Just been talk on sky sports transfer centre that we are looking into getting Jordan Rhodes.



22 Aug 2016 11:38:37
I saw that too great scoring record in champ.



22 Aug 2016 11:48:19
Hope there's truth in it. Be great in this league. 👍 Come on Big Jeff open the cheque book! 👍.



22 Aug 2016 13:03:20
Do You think we are going to play five in attack? get real we not going to be paying that kind of money for a bench warmer.



22 Aug 2016 13:34:21
Bench warmer? Look at his goal ratio compared to maccormack and Martin? Far superior, he starts every game for me.



22 Aug 2016 15:55:56
Go get em tiger.

Bench warmer my Chuff.
He's a rubbish hot Goal Scorer, get him signed.



22 Aug 2016 11:24:52
If your a player and a bit lacking in confidence and finding it hard to get motivated. and you've got jackett trying to give a kick up the arse its not going to wotk is it. players probs fell asleep listening to him!



22 Aug 2016 10:04:33
Don't think we need much more to mount a serious challenge for promotion with the likes of dicko, graham and zero to come back maybe a couple defenders and a goalkeeper don't think much of lonergan but Walter getting a extra 20% out of players from last year.



22 Aug 2016 10:11:36
It's a good start but don't get carried away, we def need a quality centre half, quality mid and at least one quality striker. U can't count Dicko, Zyro or Graham as they may not be the same comin back from serious injuries. Remember window shuts end of the month then that's it till Jan.



22 Aug 2016 10:33:20
True, but Mason looks like a new player so does Coady. Maybe Jackett couldn't get the best out of these guys.



22 Aug 2016 10:53:15
Euroman your right JACKETT hadn't a clue on tactics team selection subs and motivation! But those days are behind us now! 👍 My monies on JACKETT going sheff Utd or a team in that league. But to be honest I don't give a monkeys about him as long as he has nothin to do with Wolves.



22 Aug 2016 11:20:09
Think coady could improve even more and be one of the best midfielders in league looks to have bit of Alex Rae bout him he didn't look anything like that last year.



{Ed001's Note - when he was at Huddersfield he was excellent. I was surprised he struggled so badly last season for you. He is a decent lad, hard worker in training, so he deserves to succeed.}
