So Barcelona want traore I called this a week or two ago but people still like hitting click bait got to look around for stories not just visit trash sites and believe that traore even wanted to go spurs in first place so all that were fooled remember were you read it and make sure not to fall for lazy reporters and we should have a couple more players in by transfer deadline day loads bounded around but nothing concrete I've read yet but it will not be dembele from Barcelona that's for sure lol

A week ago you said Barcelona would sign him in the summer. You didn't mention the loan move.

I called that the winner of the lottery's name would start with A. Letter of the alphabet.

@ Debbie the lottery thing was from the Brian Connelly show many years ago he had a character called Septic Peg which was a mic taker of Mystic Meg.


5.) 28 Jan 2022 11:13:13
I remember that character! and MM being on the lottery draw live. The good old 90's.

So clear out at PSG to try fit Messi in to plans could be up to 10 players from some reports so hopefully we have some one from our club sniffing out some bargains or a good agent who has clients that need moving on from there.

{Ed002's Note - There is nobody leaving who wasn’t already for sale. Wolves have shown no interest in any of them.}


1.) 09 Aug 2021 20:08:15
Ty ed002 I didn't realise they were already on the transfer list and was wishing more than anything else just hopeful to get a few threw the door and thought all psg want is wages cut so although we may not be interested in the ones that were put on the list psg will be willing to listen to offers for other players that are not on the transfer list but time will tell.

{Ed002's Note - No, they have a lengthy list of players and are working with clubs and agents to move them on. Nothing has changed.}

So looks like the end of mir really sad he didn't get to show us what he could do IMO he should of been recalled from loan and played instead of the young (silva) not his fault but mir knew what he was doing and how to score goals and silva just isn't he really needs to go out on loan to championship and he will learn quickly but that's just IMO anyone have any idea what price we could get from athletico madrid?

Giants amongst giants

{Ed002's Note - Around €14M. It won't be clear until the TMS is updated.}


1.) 08 Aug 2021 19:19:01
I don't think we could have recalled him.
Jose scored a good few goals in La Liga but only one in the EPL. Maybe Mir would do the same. Horses for courses.


2.) 08 Aug 2021 20:16:03
Really?
Comparing Mir to Silva is like comparing a 12 year old wonder kid to silva.
6 years difference. Silva did well last year when you consider injuries, loss of raul and change of system. He was unlucky with some misses.
Mir never really wanted to play for us. He came to us whilst playing in the championship and believed he was a cut above already. He was a good youth player and under estimated English football. He played for us against swansea for half an hour and did nothing. couldn't hold the ball up. Forest fans don't rate him.
However he has scored goals last season. Playing counter attack football. I think 15m is perfect business. that's a 13.5m profit and he will sit on the bench somewhere in spain. Both parties are happy.
Fabio silva stats 4 goals 3 assists.
Thats 7 goals he contributed to. Nearly a quarter of all the goals wolves scored last season.
Wolves missed Raul. Raul would have scored 14+ goals last season like he did the previous campaigns.
Add 14 goals we would have finished 7th or 8th.


3.) 08 Aug 2021 23:52:33
Mir failed to impress whilst here and was subsequently loaned out to Forest where he again was poor, then to Las Palmas where again he was poor. It is only in the last season that he has proved himself but he is not part of Lages plans and a £13m profit is good business.


4.) 09 Aug 2021 11:40:24
Raf mir forrest (11 goals) huesca (22 goals) not to shabby improved every year if you check and 22 goals scored for a team that went down I think you will find he scored more goals than Sheffield utds whole team did and both went down and I bet there ain't to many 24 years old in the bottom half of leagues that scored 22 goals 13 million profit I'm not moaning at its good business Its just a shame we didn't give him a chance to show us how much he come on but happy we made a good profit time to spend that money and buy 1 or our usual way loan to buy spread it out over 5 years been good to us so far.


5.) 09 Aug 2021 15:41:54
I think you'll find that Rafa Mir played 11 games for Forest and scored ZERO goals. You've mis read Wikipedia. Nice try though.


6.) 09 Aug 2021 17:29:06
Either way he scored 22 goals last season for a side that went down did better than our team of strikers managed and yes misread it but starting games at forrest (6) hardly time to get your game on is it all I'm saying he performed absolutely amazing last season and shame he didn't get the opportunity to play for us how many seasons we going to wait for silva to get them goals our change in style would of been right up mir Street.


7.) 09 Aug 2021 18:51:03
Giants, again you've got your facts wrong. Rafa Mir has indeed scored 22 goals whilst on loan at Huesca but 16 of them were scored last season (13 in the league, 3 cup) . The other 6 were scored the season before when Huesca were in La Liga2. So 13 goals in 38 games is not quite as impressive as 22 goals.

Personally, I think he should be given a chance at Molineux but the player himself wants to go so best of luck to him.


8.) 09 Aug 2021 20:17:52
Even when I check before posting I get it wrong sod it from now on sod the checking of goals scored for teams I'll stick to just IMO lol and your correct JAS M 22 goals definitely sounds better than the 13 oh well I stick to my guns and say it was worth exploring bringing him back from his loan and giving him a go but hey ho 13 million profit for a player that had 2 appearances for us is not a bad deal and means we can reinvest it and get a player.

Well this season gets better from having the privilege to see some of the best football at wolves for a long time to a laughingstock we going down this season no other way at looking at it the squad would struggle in the championship never mind be competitive in the Premier league I've got nothing against fosun or Gary O'Neil, but sorry he ain't good enough unfortunately fosun have let the club down 3 days before season starts so unfortunately I will not be buying a shirt or ticket this season my 12 year old asked me for a shirt I said leave it this season.

I don't want him going through all the mick taking and bullying IMO JL had no choice to go the ambition of the club 12 months ago was big all of a sudden the spine of team sold under him and not a penny to buy some players and you can say FFP that's just a smoke screen damn Chelsea spent what in a season arsenal spent 95 million on 1 player and all that fosun just didn't do the due diligence Chelsea decided to use rules and bend them with 7 and 8 year contracts to get round them rules anyone that thinks wolves will do well this season with all them players gone needs to hook me up with what ever medication they take.

Giants amongst giants

1.) 09 Aug 2023 09:56:04
I'll gladly give you my list of medications giants. I do agree we are a laughing stock at the moment, but it a hasty call to say we're going down and that this squad would struggle in the championship.

Our squad contains international quality and experience and I'd suggest can be a test for anyone, certainly the forests Everton Bournemouth Luton etc so I'm confident we can avoid relegation.

Chelsea are now being investigated over expenditure and finance going back a couple of years or more, city are still being investigated, Everton are to find their fate next month. Next year it'll be forest and the vile. Maybe we'll be grateful in the end?.

We're a fickle lot though, we're hurting at the moment but should we get a couple of wins out of the first 4 we'll be back, wearing the shirts, maybe prouder than before. Fosuns treatment as been awful, JLs walking away from a contract cowardly in a way, a betrayal, the timing dreadful, again in a way because at least we had someone covering pre- season but now we are in the lurch. I'll never turn my back on my team. Get your tickets support the lads, get your sons shirt and we'll all be stronger for it eventually. COYW


2.) 09 Aug 2023 09:59:02
Not just JL who has left we also have no other coaches/training staff. Ridiculous situation to be in just before the season starts.


3.) 09 Aug 2023 10:38:01
Giant, what a load of tosh, our squad is more than capable of competing in the Premier league. What is this spine you talk about being sold? apart from Neves, every other player going was a bit part last season, Mouts, Raul, Collins played very little, Giles, Coady, Sanderson were not even part of squad and playing elsewhere.
This season, we have Silva, Sasa, back in squad, plus we kept Kilman and Nunes.
Yes a lot are disappointed LOP has gone, but we have to move on and back whoever they bring in, the season is up on us, I think this has been coming for a few weeks now and plans have been in place to have a smooth change of guard if the manager left.

I liked LOP, but since the end of last season something has been brewing, and he chose to wait till now to leave, it says a lot about him, he has form for it also, he was paid well and spent a good bit of money in winter, but he he wanted more and more and spat his dummy, regardless of what folk think about FOSUN, at the end of the day they own the club and we have to get used to that, managers come and go as do players, but us fans will always be here, in good and bad times.


4.) 09 Aug 2023 11:31:13
Sydney you beat me too it, yes, questions can be asked about the lack of communication over financial matters, but at the end of the day we don't have a bad squad of players and I believe we will be competitive this season.

As you say JL has form for this, but again should we question the wisdom of who's making these appointments? The club did back him in the winter and ffp can affect any club from time to time, but for him to walk less than a week before the season kicks off is imo, inexcusable. Unless his kiss and tell stories to the media annoyed the owners to the extent that they wanted him gone, of course.


5.) 09 Aug 2023 12:04:11
Abbeywolf, Villa Dan West Ham will be fine because the sales of Grealish and Rice are total profit and will be positive on the amortisation. It’s the profit and loss over the 3 year period and this allows them to be able to keep spending. If we sold Kilman it would be smart business as it’s almost 100% profit whereas we cannot afford to sell Guedes because it’s almost 100% loss.
He will either have to stay and play or go on loan.
Everton will have points deducted and Newcastle will need to be very careful but if we can stay out of danger this year we will be healthier next year when others around us are in trouble.


6.) 09 Aug 2023 12:41:05
Sydney only time will tell i just think getting rid of 7 players i belive traiore mountiho nerves jimenez Collins and few others and we get a keeper and a left back LMFAO this is fosun fault why chase a manger for 2 years we finally get him but do nothing to keep him and sell the players or allow them to go on frees i'm just disappointed at this farce 2 weeks ago this was all known and in 2 weeks the best we can find is garry O'Neil nothing against him but if it was known JL was going to walk would it not make sense for a new manager to come in and do the pre season rather than wait until start of season and get a new manager when squad has been working on what JL wanted to do now a new manager with his own ideas but no time to work with squad will concern the players never mind us fans that 10 year plan has just gone out the window


 

 

24 Jan 2023 19:34:36
OK so players we should be looking at IMO Joel PIROE of Swansea ( he looks a very good player) Bretton Diaz Blackburn (talk is Spain he will go)) those are 2 that I think would score us goals and would not break the bank other than those 2 we would need around £50 million for a proven goal scorer bear in mind every club is after goal scorers so prices are hyped up at the moment also I can't remember many January signing that have taken the league by storm

Giants amongst giants

1.) 24 Jan 2023 20:57:55
Both untested at top level and would be complete gambles. Having seen Brereton Diaz many times my view is that he's nowhere near good enough anyway. Not seen Pirou play.


2.) 25 Jan 2023 08:33:35
no matter what striker comes in we will struggle to score goals wolves just don't create enough chances for a striker to score in my opinion the formation is the problem and having no legs in the middle of the park to link and join play but fortunately it looks like jl has also noticed this with the signing of lemina allowing others to push forward and also gomes ( if he comes ) having our best footballer in neves playing basically as a center half at times to me is a waste fingers crossed jl frees him up and we can njoy the more creative side of his game for the remainder of his time here


3.) 25 Jan 2023 09:07:12
Wolves goal scoring is not good as we all know and has to improve if they stay up. I can't see Wolves signing a striker in this window so let's hope the new signings will improve the team and more goals. I think February and March results will dictate whether Wolves will stay up. Fingers crossed it will be positive and the signings prove successful.


 

 

21 Jan 2022 13:01:01
Hold on a damn minute traore is a wolves player and will be until 2023 that's what his contract says traore will not move to spurs he will move to Barcelona in the summer Barcelona boss has already said traore has unfinished business at Barcelona and is one of there targets but because of the difficulties Barcelona have on moving players on 250k a week but he will be a Barcelona player in the summer if I'm wrong you can shoot me when the saga is all over

Giants amongst giants

1.) 21 Jan 2022 15:23:58
Money talks at the end of the day gag,if spurs offer enough then he'll be gone.


2.) 21 Jan 2022 16:20:10
Common sense tells me Wolves should sit down with Traore and sort his contract out to suit both sides. If tied to a longer deal he can still be sold in the summer if a good offer comes along plus a longer contract gives Wolves more bargaining power. No point in selling for 20m and paying the same for Trincao who never has anything like the same impact, far too lightweight.


3.) 21 Jan 2022 17:04:21
By some accounts he's signed for spurs this afternoon. Yet to be made official but it's going to happen regardless


4.) 21 Jan 2022 18:24:07
Giant amongst giants. Sorry mate you've been a good supporter but as you have said its your time to go! I've got the old trusty Flintlock out of the cabinet, just need to give it a good clean find some gunpowder and some decent lead shot. Wouldn't want to use any cheap stuff on you old chap! You'll be missed ( probably by me I'm a poor shot) bye then!


5.) 21 Jan 2022 19:05:43
They've tried Ray and Traore wouldn't accept, her thinks he's better than he is and tbh he is just coming across as only caring for the money.


6.) 21 Jan 2022 22:08:19
Afraid this is Wolves now, any chance of making a quick profit and they would sell any of their assets. Traore was one player who could produce that little bit of magic that could turn a game with his pace and strendth. Never mind they will have a few quid in the bank. May'be sign a couple more for the future to loan out.


7.) 21 Jan 2022 23:55:37
Which part of he wouldn't sign a new contract don't you understand?
Choice is sell him now or in Summer any eam from outside England could agree a pre contract with him and we'd get nothing.
Good job some fans aren't running the club we'd be back in the Bhatti days.


8.) 22 Jan 2022 09:01:36
Point is he would have signed a new contract, he just thought he was worth more. Don't we all!


 

 

04 Jan 2022 20:05:17
I'm a little worried that we will not add anything due to the place we sit and with injured players coming back I don't see fosun doing anything half decent and let's face it most of transfers done in January you are held to ransom on price then player wants more etc don't get me wrong I'm not saying fosun would not dig deep if we were in trouble but this season we done a good job 1_0 losses to the 2 best sides in the league if not the world a decent 1_1 with chelski all with out neto and Johnny so them back are new signings in them selves so leaves us a little short defence IMO only time will tell onwards and upwards

Giants amongst giants

1.) 05 Jan 2022 10:34:10
Well I guess you spoke too soon, just signed Kawabe. Looks like an interesting attacking midfielder.


2.) 05 Jan 2022 11:44:27
Going back to Grasshoppers on loan though.


3.) 05 Jan 2022 14:08:03
You sure station? Way I read it was we've got him on 3 1/2 year deal. He's with us until end of Jan then he'll finish grasshoppers season (whenever that is)before returning to us.


4.) 05 Jan 2022 14:09:24
Yeah I seen that but that still ain't adding to the ranks just going back on loan usual business and I hope I'm wrong and we do bring in players but unless traore is sold at decent money we ain't adding any thing of quality fosun look for gems to sell on later at big profit and there ain't any out there for our price bracket and as I said you name me 10 player's who were sold in January and went on to be half decent and win trophies answers on a postcard LMFAO


5.) 05 Jan 2022 14:54:55
Yes Abbey, he'll be with us in January whilst there is a break in the Swiss league (the same reason Toti Gomes is coming back) and then he'll return to Grasshoppers for the remainder of the season. Therefore he won't be featuring for us this season, so isn't adding to our numbers immediately.


6.) 05 Jan 2022 15:29:56
Yea sorry statto, I thought you were suggesting he was just going on indefinite loan. He won't feature in the next 2-3 weeks will he.


 

 

03 Jan 2022 19:55:39
Omg what a win from start to finish could not be happier

Giants amongst giants

1.) 03 Jan 2022 19:58:18
Oxley Moor Ron will probably still moan lol.

Fantastic win played brilliant from start to end and what a save from SA right at the end too, SA easily premier league signing of the season.


2.) 03 Jan 2022 20:49:52
Great start to the year!


3.) 04 Jan 2022 09:09:54
Still no sign of Oxley. Probably still desparately looking for something to moan about.

We may have an absolute gem on our hands with Bruno and with the right backing in the summer, once FFP is out of the way, could see us break into the top 6.

I'm not sure but 15 million and Emerson royal is what I'm told but I've said a week or so ago that Barcelona is were he will end up they just trying to get rid of dembele but that could be difficult but news that neto and Johnny will be back for us soon really exciting times are coming

Both are typical fosun business young and hungry but not ready for the big time yet but we really don't need much some cover at the back everywhere else we are pretty much covered if all the injured players do in deed come back and hit the ground running soon as neto is ready we will see more goals I really think that will help Raul out so much its so easy for teams to just put 2 cb on him but neto back teams will have to come up with something different

I've heard it could be 5 games he misses but we are not alone there are many who didn't let there players go to red list areas surely common sense should prevail we should respond with he has a knock and needs time to get over it so he is currently injured every other Tom dick and Harry has In past and I'm pretty sure the players would go along with I'm carrying a knock unless of course they wanted to go we will never find that out tho.

Not so sure about him personally I don't think he is good enough back up to Raul starting to get a little jittery now some stories of spurs wanting Adam on loan with option to buy if this is the case I don't think we are that stupid enough to do that deal I personally see him going but will cost them 50 million plus (spurs think they dealing with Morgan) we ain't stupid you have 150 million from selling kane to city that's a done deal if spurs get replacements they know if they sold kane before replacing then teams will add 10 million to the price of player because they know spurs will need.

No surprise really more hope but will we ever see jimenez and cunha play together we look different class when cunha comes on so I don't understand why JL still sits him on the bench I think cunha will bring back the jimenez magic and is the key to us scoring goals and staying up sometimes you just have to say the best team won (official's really didn't help) but we can't lose faith the first game under JL that has been bad with no ideas but on to the next few games Rome wasn't built in a day will take a few weeks for the new guys to bed in get up to speed

It's all wrong and something needs changing rules are supposed to be straightforward but in football if you asked 10 referees to look at the weekends football and show them a clip of for example the souphamton goal ruled out we would never get 10 saying the same thing same as yellow cards what 1 referee gives as a yellow this week next week its not rules should be simple so that 10 people looking at a incident all say the same thing not leave it to interpretation its a big money business run by amuters VAR had been a joke and inconsistent take the FA cup I really hope Liverpool win the thing imagine the FA red faces a team who should not be in the cup goes and wins it

We payed 18 million for him had 4 years out of him and I think you all have it wrong he will end up at Barcelona no brainer were he first started I really don't think unless it's 40 million plus we are that stupid to sell him to a rival for penny's sod it I'd rather keep him for his 18 months contract then let him go for nothing
