Seems to have gone very quiet regarding Fabio. Plenty of rumours surrounding Podence, Guedes, RAN, Neto, Hodge, Cundle, H Bueno, but nothing on Silva. Very strange.

Silva has so far cost Wolves circa £50m, including wages.
Shi extended his contract until 2026, so he can sit and collect another £8million as it stands.
This was a signing the CEO saw as his personal "project".

Depends on which reports you believe.
Some say he's on £80k a week, others say £42k a week. The truth is, unless we see his wage slip or bank balance, we just don't know.

I was thinking much the same thing Wandering.

Where have you read that Rugeley, that Fabio was Jeff's personal project?!

He said it in an interview once I think bullysboy, said something like it was his call to sign Fabio. Luckily he leaves those sorts of decisions to someone else now.

Bully, when Silva first went out on loan, the E&S reported Silva saying that our CEO was very close to him, phoning him on a regular basis to see how he was feeling.
Now, you will have to look back to find that article, but it is definitely there!

Yes, Goatmark, we have moved on, thank goodness. Hobbs and O'Neil doing a fine job on the footballing front.

As you'll read on the Banter page I think the decision to sign Fabio was FAR more likely to be driven by Nuno and his best mate Mendes (who made a small fortune on it)!
Calling a young lad who's living in a different country to their home to ensure their well being is not something to berate someone for is it?!
I seriously doubt Jeff had even heard of Fabio until Nuno and Méndes suggested it?! As I've always said Jeff's biggest flaw was putting too much trust in Mendes!

I know I am one of a small minority, but Fabio is still a Wolves asset. We have just one striker recently signed, who by the way has not found the net in pre season. So unless we are to sign a back up then Fabio can still be useful. The alternative is spend money we haven't got and gamb!e all over again.

"It does not have to be to do with the cost of the player. It is about what you see in them and what you see a little bit ahead of them."
Nunos own words Rugeley the season we signed Fabio. Now I know that this is tricky for you cause it doesn't fit your 'Everythings Jeffs fault' rhetoric but this is a lad that was at Porto (Nunos old club) and was represented by Méndes. But I'm sure your right I'm sure it was all Jeffs suggestion! Priceless ??

Relax, Bully, relax. The footballing side of the Club is now in good hands.

Not sure I've seen the words asset and Fabio in the same sentence before Ray!Couldn't even hack it with Ranges remember and was criticised from all quarters for his diving and cheating antics.

Although Larsen hasn’t scored in pre season he has set up three goals and looked good. Holds the ball up well and is strong and works hard.
