Sasa loan to franfurt confirmed then.

Abbeywolf

1.) 07 Jan 2024 12:58:45
With sasa and fabio gone, we must be close to geting a striker in. I know they hardly played but it was two bodies on the bench, in a small squad.
With players away and gomez missing 3 we need cover if we pick up a couple of injuries we could find it difficult to win games


2.) 07 Jan 2024 13:42:42
There must be someone lined up, otherwise SK wouldn't have been let go out on loan. But who is the question?


3.) 07 Jan 2024 14:09:26
Danny Ings


4.) 07 Jan 2024 17:07:12
Prefer Danny to Che Adams


5.) 07 Jan 2024 18:08:47
I think your right Jas, I reckon Ings will arrive in the next week or so. I have to be honest I really don't see the point in signing Ings. He's never going to be up to being long term cover cause he's just always injured, that's not going to improve as he gets older?! Personally I'd love to see us get that Boulaye Día lad who we've been in for last window. Looks like a great player with the kind of physical attributes needed to lead the line. Also looks like a few clubs are tracking him so maybe he's got more attractive options now? We need to start building this squad up, for me Ings doesn't especially help with that (long term) but time will tell ?


6.) 08 Jan 2024 10:25:43
Imagine if Ings is injured early days, would leave us paying big wages for no product. I'd steer clear and rely on Hobbs to find another young and hungry.


7.) 09 Jan 2024 13:43:09
Danny Ings not leaving now


8.) 09 Jan 2024 14:34:47
Rejoyce! I really don't think he was the solution to the problem.


9.) 09 Jan 2024 19:57:56
Personally I'd rather have Danny Ings and hope he doesn't get injured rather than have no striker at all.


10.) 09 Jan 2024 21:59:35
On his wages, Jas? Aren't we currently doing rather well with no striker at all? Summer is the real time for squad strengthening.


11.) 09 Jan 2024 22:30:01
Ings.!
Adams.!
Is costa still available if that's the best we can do.fgs.we need some1 with a bit of mobility.theyr dedlegs who don't suit our style atall.


12.) 09 Jan 2024 23:53:24
Old Wulf, if we can get him I'm on loan then that's ideal. He is a proven scorer at this level. I'm regards to his wages, if we are only contributing 50% of Silva, Sasa and Guedes wages whilst they are on loan, then this gives us capacity to pay 50% of Ings wages.

At the moment, we have let Sasa and Fabio, Hwang on International duty and Neto only just back from injury. That leaves Bellegarde and Cunha as our most attacking options unless we promoted Fraser and Gonzalez.


13.) 10 Jan 2024 11:40:07
Thing is Jas your argument of Ings is better than no one would be valid if it was 31st Jan. But it's not, if it's Ings or no one this early on (having already let two strikers go) then we have bigger problems than our strikers! I'm sure we have other irons in the fire, looks like it's academic anyway as I think injuries will make Ings unavailable anyway ?


14.) 10 Jan 2024 12:47:27
Buxwolf, not heard from you for a while. I've missed your little messages of joy.


 

 

31 Aug 2023 09:35:30
So it's £53m +10% sell on for nunes, and we're paying £4.5m for Doyle with 50% sell on. All round great deals.

Abbeywolf

1.) 31 Aug 2023 09:40:29
Abbeywolf good piece of business for Wolves don't need a player who doesn't want to be there and record transfer fee.


2.) 31 Aug 2023 10:05:29
I'm glad he's going i'll drive him to the Etihad myself.


3.) 31 Aug 2023 10:09:15
Congratulations to Hobbs.the boy done good!
From day 1, it has been clear Nunes was with us under duress and it was just a way in to the Premiership.
So now a win for him and good result for Wolves!


4.) 31 Aug 2023 10:44:49
I see the misfortune of KDB picking up a lengthy injury has made man City do the deal.

Fate eh?


5.) 31 Aug 2023 11:15:09
Do you think mathieus (he prefers to be called that apparently) will keep him out when he's fit again Phil? because in all honesty I don't think he'll keep up with cities tempo, unless we see him improve dramatically. Anyway he's gone we've made abit and we've got an exciting prospect in Doyle, ah he will.


6.) 31 Aug 2023 11:38:13
Glad to see the favourable comments above on this deal. Frankly, a few other fans could only see negativity yesterday, and I'm surprised at some of them. Obviously the Doyle option at £4.5mil is a gift to us. His real value must be about the Alex Scott level. My guess is that City wanted to save face after they threatened to walk away! In reality we have achieved our asking price for ungrateful Nunes because of the huge under-pricing of Doyle. Pity that some of us can't see that. I have to say well done to Hobbs. This may prove to be a good window. I guess the rumours about rumours that the club is for sale will now disappear.


7.) 31 Aug 2023 13:27:00
Todd Boehly pulled the plug on Diarra and Bellegarde deals.


8.) 31 Aug 2023 13:39:40
I don't see that Abbey KDB is the real deal.
Regarding hobbs yes agree but never mentioned its the club that has employed hobbs with the mandate set.
So imo our club should get some recognition too.
As our club our owners have been under extreme attack on these pages of late and lesser extent the last year or so.

As have always stated its results and performances that will change fans mindsets.
So hoping once transfer window is shut the emphasis on these pages is back predominately on the football our team play.
We going to have understandable blips in form like the majority of teams in the league but also I believe understandable good/excellent runs of form.
Of which will give fans the focus back we are a club in progression.

Onwards and upwards as others on their posts have stated.
FOREVER WOLVES ARE WE.


9.) 31 Aug 2023 14:51:41
Hi E can you shed light on your statement as a bit cryptic for me.


10.) 31 Aug 2023 15:27:37
Sorry but I don't see how this is agood deal losing nunes to city and pep who rates him and will obviously get the best out of him which we never did .doyle is a good deal but only if he proves to be upto the prem.wud pep let him go if he thut he was.and the nunes fee isa joke when palmer is going for a similar amount.we just saw a glimpse pf nines potential this ssn and now hav let him go.


11.) 31 Aug 2023 15:30:51
Perhaps E has changed allegiances MRV.


12.) 31 Aug 2023 16:13:50
Buxwolf, Super-sulk Nunes had downed tools and gone on strike. He would have ruined dressing room morale if he stayed. We should celebrate him going. He was never that interested for us last season anyway.


13.) 31 Aug 2023 17:05:02
Strasbourg are owned by Chelsea MRV


 

 

02 Nov 2022 09:38:57
Reported in telegraph today that loptigue (spell sorry) as come back to us this week and that we are working to sort out acceptable terms. Maybe we'll have an early Christmas presence?

Abbeywolf

1.) 02 Nov 2022 13:57:51
Christmas presence. It’s Jacob Marley’s ghost. Hahaha.

And people perhaps need to calm down on the Sellars and Shi hatred. It was clear to anyone with even a iota of intelligence that this was going to happen and that Julen only turned us down because of his Father’s health. And by us waiting it showed him that we clearly want him.

I think he will be announced in the coming week or two and will take over whilst the World Cup is on. Just a shame a chunk of our team will probably be in Qatar so he won’t be able to see the likes of Neves until after.

I also hope Steve gets some pats on the back. 4 points from 3 games really isn’t bad when you’ve never managed a team at senior level. Guy did better than Terry or Mick did.


2.) 02 Nov 2022 14:19:21
I feel like I have more than an iotas intelligence and I don't really understand this just being about his fathers health! Cause it just doesn't add up I'm afraid, well not unless something has drastically changed for him. His dad is 91 so even if he's improved not to sound harsh then that will only be a temporary situation. Also I would point out that this decision was as based on said health mere weeks ago?!
Then you say about us showing him we clearly wanted him, well how does that fit with our farily public approach for Beale just days after?! Not just a different manager but a manager at the complete opposite end of the experience spectrum no less!
Don't get me wrong I like your version of this, where the club was always entirely in control. The problem is that the timeline/reporting of this story doesn't support that notion in anyway at all?!


3.) 02 Nov 2022 14:36:06
He never did better than Mick and he has a team full of internationals where Mick might have had two or three.


 

 

15 Aug 2022 14:38:26
So the suggestion is Bruno wants to give neves 100k a week to keep away from man u. Arsenal etc. Hoever is out of favour with PSV and Ched Adams a possible recruit. Ramos says he dosnt want prem football this summer, and nunes not yet dead in water.

I think the only thing we can read out of that is that Hoever is not really committed to the game.

Abbeywolf

1.) 15 Aug 2022 16:27:35
Hi Abbeywolf,
It feels that this is a big week.
Mendes AND the boss (Guangchang) are both in town.
If they can't tempt Nunes, then that is that with him. However, I am sure there are others being discussed, so I now expect some signings.
Think it is telling that Shi and Sellars appear to be sidelined.
So hopefully some good news on that front as well!


2.) 15 Aug 2022 17:25:13
If that's correct Rugeley, that's got to be good news, whichever way you look at it. It could mean that serious transfers are afoot, I doubt its personnel changes.
To sign what we need Guo Guangchang would probably have to commit some additional funding from Fosun. Keeping Neves, upping his salary plus MGW staying will have altered the landscape and they won't risk another goal drought season, surely. Currently the Wolves/Fosun loan slate is clean. Accepting what Abbey says about Ramos its probably to sort Nunes and a striker, a good one.
Or it might just be that he was gagging for a pint of Bank's and some orange chips.


3.) 15 Aug 2022 17:20:03
Hoever needs selling, I was hoping he’d have a breakthrough season at PSV looks as bad of a deal as the Cutrone one.

I am told nunes deal is all but done with the player TRAVELLING TO ENGLAND to discuss terms (which he hasn’t yet done for anyone else) deadline was today to find one of the big 6 to sign him before he’d explore wolves proposal (we will find out how true this is by next week)

Nothing new on the striker front at the moment.


4.) 15 Aug 2022 18:54:02
It would seem the final problem with nunes is the 45+m sporting want. Ramos maybe playing for big 6 interest and still arrive if none are forthcoming. Personally I feel ched Adams story carries more weight. Looks like we maybe on the verge of being proved wrong on transfers and fosuns ongoing commitment, only time will tell.


5.) 15 Aug 2022 19:08:56
Neil Maupay anyone?


6.) 15 Aug 2022 20:00:18
Maupay is off to forest for 15m. I would of given him a go for that money. We don’t seem to buy proven Prem players though.


7.) 15 Aug 2022 20:38:04
Yes.we only buy Portuguese players ad a rule


 

 

31 Aug 2021 10:11:15
Sky saying spurs still interested in adama but we've put £50m tag on him. It'll be interesting right up to 11 tonight.

Abbeywolf

1.) 31 Aug 2021 11:02:57
Jeff is rightly playing hardball with Daniel Levy. £50mil paid up-front, for Traore, take it or leave it. No try-before-you-buy stuff.


2.) 31 Aug 2021 11:05:45
I’ve also seen a report suggesting a late bid by Spurs for Neves. I hope this doesn’t come to fruition.

{Ed002's Note - Ruben Neves (DM/CM) Wolves would look to get as close to €50M as they can should circumstances dictate Neves is sold, but they certainly don't want to sell and have made clear that he has a long-term contract and there have been no approaches at this time. Mr Mourinho is a huge fan and has tried to take him to three different clubs in the past - and he would, I am sure be interested in taking him to Roma but their focus right now iselsewhere. He has always been seen as an option to replace Matic at Manchester United, but they have other priorities to deal with first and preferred options - although they are not working out well so Wolves might see an offer. His agent has been actively offering him around and has spoken with Juventus who are looking to offload players but none that I would expect Wolves to be interested in. The Spurs coach would like him as an upgrade to Sissoko and Ndombele but it is likely both would need to leave as they are looking at another addition in midfield as well. Arsenal have preferred options but his agent is keen to have him move on so they cannot be discounted - although failing to sell Xhaka will likely take them out of the picture.}


3.) 31 Aug 2021 12:49:53
Wolves won't sell Neves with 3 years left on his contract.

{Ed077's Note - we will know for sure in a few hours I guess

Interesting var decision against man u today.
Again the general consensus is that it should not have been given. Two minutes to review on screen before the 'clear and obvious' error ny the ref was overturned, which, if your of the mind, begs a couple of questions, 1. A decision against man u, a top 6 team (? Now).
Why? any possibility that VAR needs to be seen as being fair and unbiased, whilst not really upsetting the Applecart.
I don't know, it didn't seem to be a penalty to me and there was even a handball before the challenge that should have negated a pen anyway.
I'm afraid VAR has again shown its incompetent operation in effecting major
results. This really can't go on, it's damaging the game on the field and as a spectator sport. No wonder conspiracy theories abound.

Abbeywolf

1.) 27 Oct 2024 19:23:30
Sorry point two was, are they taking the opportunity to redress any claims of bias towards city against us last week and deflect critism?


2.) 28 Oct 2024 08:37:40
As I’ve said before, NO ONE (other than Wolves) can complain about VAR decisions. They all had their chance. Pull up your big boy pants and get on with it!


3.) 28 Oct 2024 09:45:28
Not moaning on behalf of united Bos, its the incessant mistakes the VAR adjudictors make and wondering how or more likely Why?


 

 

26 Oct 2024 17:07:38
Dunno what happened this afternoon, we seemed to show abit of everything. Silly mistakes, wonder saves, near misses, doom and gloom and then the determination not to give up and belief to get the point, a very good point to take at Brighton.
Not overly convincing but a step in the right direction. Never really expected that. COYW.

Abbeywolf

 

 

26 Oct 2024 07:01:21
Brighton. Away, is this a pivotal game in our current Premier history?.
I sense this game could be our make or break moment because being rock bottom, not having won a game for so long wer're travelling south with crushed confidence, feeling no matter what we do we'll get punished and the stigma of it all.
GON has a huge job (for the moment), to rally the team and make a genuine threat to a well organised confident seagulls. Although at least it seems they'll be missing welbeck.
If we can indeed take 3 points today, it'll be the springboard lose and the trap door opens a little wider.
I'm not my optimistic self, I want us to win, I prey well win, of course I do, but I just don't have that confidence that we can.
Come 5 ish tonight it'll be talk of moving upwards or sadly downwards, let's hope the black shirts are not an omen for a period of mourning.
No matter what it's COYW as normal, and a big thank you to all you travelling fans for vocally supporting the lads.
Geez I hope I'm happier tonight.

Abbeywolf

1.) 26 Oct 2024 09:47:51
I agree Abbey, I think the players know if they do not get a win tonight GON is gone and they are playing for their futures


2.) 26 Oct 2024 10:06:56
Hi Abbey,
I suspect next week's game against Palace will determine our PL prospects and certainly GON's future as Wolves manager. Like you and all the other contributers on here we all want to see our team do well. I hope I'm wrong, but I just can't see us getting anything today from a really good Brighton side. I believe we have a good team, but GON and his coaching staff simply aren't good enough. I hear pundits etc have said he's been let down by Fosun, but IMO they only say that because he's one of the few English managers. Look at what Nuno is doing at Forest. We've bought a keeper for £10Mill who looks poor compared to Sa, spent in excess of £12Mill on Lima and the lad from Nantes (CB) and we either aren't or can't play them. The wingers we've bought aren't getting a chance either. I despair with it all really.


3.) 26 Oct 2024 10:29:07
I don't think your alone with those thoughts Abbey. Come away from this with nothing and the gun will be cocked imo, get nothing from the next and I think they will pull the trigger, they'll have to.

Having said that Matt Hobbs must be sweating as well, as he comes across as a fan on Wolves current transfer policy, may even be the architect, which has surely along with VAR contributed to this mess.


4.) 26 Oct 2024 12:04:28
Given the situation we are in all games are currently must win games.


5.) 26 Oct 2024 12:19:53
It'll be interesting next week fan wise, I believe there's already to be a national fans protest against prices, if its all t*ts up Fosun will get it.
GON, despite his amicable personality as not come up with the goods. A new breath of fresh air and new ideas are needed to reignite the team. Who can/will provide that I don't know, but we can't go on in a stale repetitive way. As for the new guys the French cf is injured was when we bought him, Lima looks good, R Gomez and or Forbes could do with a start, let's get the ball away from the defence and apply pressure. They're young I know, but some youthful ambition may work.Lemina and j gomez are too busy defensively to show their true abilities.
Obviously I'm not a manager and tactics don't necessarily allow it but we have to try something surely?


 

 

20 Oct 2024 16:11:54
Yet again! The rules don't apply when it's wolves. On this occasion maybe VAR were suggesting the ref was wrong but they obviously didn't show the 'obvious' infringement on Sa, or the ref conveniently didn't recognise it. Gutted.
It was a well drilled performance with nerve wrecking stand offs but thankfully we had Sa back. RAN needs some passing training, 2 or 3 awful balls. Samedo looked composed, Dawson the man we needed. Santi anonymously proficient. Gomes and lemina showing the determination.
It hasn't been replayed but what happened to Guedes before the corners leading to City's 2nd? It looked like he'd been fouled to me.
To lose to that goal, to VAR again makes me despair, as our motion to get rid of it influenced anything?

Abbeywolf

1.) 20 Oct 2024 16:22:04
I think you can jostle with the goalie while waiting for the free kick and you can't be offside from a free kick, presumably until the ball is touched by an outfield player.
Not sure at what time you have to stop blocking the goalie.
Of course, maybe I'm wrong.

{Ed001's Note - you can be offside from a free.}


2.) 20 Oct 2024 16:26:19
Oh dear we was robbed again, get real not good enough, here comes the Championship.


3.) 20 Oct 2024 16:33:40
SO, it WAS VAR that overuled the ref and made him change his mind of 'off side' what part of the interference didn't occur? The pushing the forcing of Sa to change his footing and ultimately his focus and concentration? It was just a matter of his eye line they looked at. VAR seriously need to be independently challenged, it's (that's the officials) are not fit and competent to make considered verdicts. Cheated again.


4.) 20 Oct 2024 16:41:40
Exact same goal by Killman last season was ruled out, it's one rule fot city and one for everyone else.


5.) 20 Oct 2024 16:51:43
Sorry, I meant corner. Wasn't that a corner?


6.) 20 Oct 2024 17:59:30
Good performance for the boys, shame about the result but a lot closer than most thought. Hoping we stay with a five for a while till we get some points on the board. Looked a lot more solid and still carried a threat. Trying not to get wound up with the poor officials, just have to fight as much as we can.


7.) 20 Oct 2024 20:02:01
The issue with the late goal taking out the offside from the side angle you can see that Sa is focused on the cross. His body language and movement appear to show that he would likely have attempted to catch/punch the cross or at very least apply pressure to the attacking players. The block by silva prevents Sa from attacking and takes him off balance to react to the header once silva had moved out the way.

It appeared to be a game plan from city with kovatic applying similar tactics against Gomes on the free kick leading to Gomes yellow card. You are entitled to stand your ground however to have no intent on the ball and intentionally block a player is obstruction and I can see why he was frustrated.


 

 

13 Oct 2024 08:17:54
Sorry post sent prematurely, I wanted to go on and say that this would then surely give us some much needed confidence going forward. I hope we can find the resolve at the back to deal with Hartland etc. Maybe the big match return for Sa?

Abbeywolf

1.) 13 Oct 2024 08:59:51
1st post obviously didn't make it. I was just thinking the city game may come as a blessing in disguise. Everyone expecting us to lose, so as long as its not a cricket score, a loss by the odd goal or even better, showing a resilience at the back, it will give us confidence for the games to come. What's the thinking?


2.) 13 Oct 2024 10:13:38
Agree Abbeywolf, any sort of positive outcome would be the springboard we need for both players and fans.


3.) 13 Oct 2024 10:17:54
I can understand your thinking Abbey but I think we are running out of excuses regardless of the opposition. The current set up is not working and I mean that across all aspects of the club not just the first team squad. It all needs a good overhaul and the starting point, unfortunately, will be a change of manager.


4.) 13 Oct 2024 11:46:32
I admire your optimism Abbey and agree to a certain point with BB 11 loyalty regarding GON, however the losses and poor form are a continuation on from last season. Let's face it how many PL Managers would still be at the helm with 1 win in 18 PL games. That's nearly half a season. Apologies but I think we need to act sooner rather than later so whoever comes in can try and inject some enthusiasm, energy and more importantly some pattern to our play.


5.) 13 Oct 2024 12:07:45
Hey its not optimistic blacksford, it's a case of despair really, what else can we do but hope things will change. GON as surely got to accept his thinking was wrong and change things around with what he's got. The certain part is that we need a boost to morale from somewhere. Sa returning in a big match would only help in my book.


6.) 13 Oct 2024 13:39:28
I'm afraid in recent seasons we've performed well and got points from City, not to mention Villa, chelsea and Newcastle. I'm not optimistic at the moment.

The question remains tho bully's, who was responsible for those decisions and under what pressures? GON, Hobbs, Shi, Fosun?

As I said below, hopefully Fosun have a replacement lined up. Let GON have his swansong game on sat, hopefully get something out of the game and get a new gaffer and team in place during the international break. It has to be C. Longmynd.

If Shi is going to give GON another game, then despite all my wishes I'll be sorry if we win because we could be left with him towards Xmas and we can't part ways then.
If however we've got someone lined up, and I still think it could be the portugese guy cavierro (? Spelling), then let GON have his swansong. Fosun are typically quiet on the topic.

To explain what I was meaning there on both occasions we were lacking on the left far post, toti and RAN (I think) had left a clear space almost vectoring the shot, on the other, I agree guedes seemed to stop but the was no left back post cover. Who or why we get in these positions is another debate, but, and I havnt got figures to prove, we seem to have been beaten on that side an awful lot.

True raging, very true, but aren't both larsen and guedes forwards? and where was our left wing back defending? Also palace would have scored more if it wernt for their wastefulness. GON picks and instructs, his background staff drill and work on the set play. Two forward players not fulfilling their roles maybe, but we let ourselves down all over.
