Marshall Munetsi. Zimbabwe Midfielder reported by John Percy.

Wandering Star

1.) 03 Feb 2025 10:25:48
Hard to tell from highlight reels but he looks like a big unit who loves a tackle and a block and is good in the air. Maybe offers more physicality to our midfield and a willingness to get from box to box. I guess only time will tell but if nothing else he doesn't look as if he's one to shy away from a challenge


2.) 03 Feb 2025 10:57:22
Just what we need PaghamWolf! VP did say he wanted to make us more a physical team. Started to show against Villa. Let’s see more! UTW ?


3.) 03 Feb 2025 11:49:52
Nasser Djiga deal nearing completion too.


4.) 03 Feb 2025 12:09:13
Watching the highlights reel for Djiga, he looks big, strong in the tackle and has pace. Seems to be a no nonsense type of player.


5.) 03 Feb 2025 12:16:01
Djiga medical booked for later, he's flying to the UK apparently according to Liam Keen. 12 million Euros, and 18m agreed for Munetsi in principle.

If Wolves make no further signings, I think VP walks away.

Wandering Star

1.) 31 Jan 2025 21:24:47
Agree wandering, but he seems abit stubborn in his style, it may not be suiting some either.


2.) 01 Feb 2025 06:43:27
In didn't take Pereira too long to learn, like others before, he had been sold a pup.
Wandering, you sense he will be gone soon, along with many players and football staff.
Why Fosun have allowed Shi to damage the Club so badly, is one of life's great mysteries.


3.) 01 Feb 2025 07:43:09
The funniest thing is that some Arsenal fans are saying they're the worst run club in the world because of their transfer window!


4.) 01 Feb 2025 07:54:25
Most probably financial Rugeley, Fosun most prob have a contract that won't tie them to big compo deal and VP only wants the prem manager on his CV, we're a stepping stone. Who knows how or why this mess as been allowed to come about. Maybe there is or should be big survival payments, but he won't be getting that if we lose again tonight. Lord knows what's going on. I said before I hope I'm wrong, I hope Fosun surprise us with two or three solid signings come Monday, just can't see it.


5.) 01 Feb 2025 08:02:37
can you blame him like lop others told pack of lies has were us fans


6.) 01 Feb 2025 11:15:36
Rugeley he wasn't so much sold a pup just a big heap of waste product from one like all managers after Nuno. A recurring theme common denominator Jeff Shi.


 

 

22 Jan 2025 17:23:28
Liam Keen has apologised.

Wandering Star

1.) 23 Jan 2025 11:08:34
I have very much enjoyed Liam Keens reporting (together with Nathan Judah) this past few years. He is clearly a Wolves fan and like many of us is likely to be concerned about Wolves current survival battle. Many of us may be quick to judge the performance and behaviour of the players. I would urge that we take care here and that we do not antagonise players either in the street, stadium and in the media. Let's not be a final straw that would tempt a player to talk to another club.


 

 

17 Jan 2025 22:37:30
Wolves in talks with Manu Silva from Vitoria SC. £12m plus 10% sell on clause.

Wandering Star

1.) 18 Jan 2025 09:01:39
Watched videos and I can see him being used as a left-sided centre back. Two-footed, good range of passing, good in the air, strong tackle and mobile. Exactly the type of centre back our coach wants.


2.) 18 Jan 2025 10:36:51
Agree 100% Wolfthistle. Good in the air, strong in the tackle, good eye for a pass and his first instinct is to get the ball forward rather than back. He'd be a terrific signing if we can get it over the line.


3.) 18 Jan 2025 13:54:28
?here’s hoping!


4.) 18 Jan 2025 16:39:50
I'm excited about this one.


5.) 19 Jan 2025 08:47:24
Munu 11 yellow card in the 60 games he has played for Victoria. Combative then! ?


 

 

11 Dec 2024 15:37:16
So, if rumours are to believed. Potter, Moyes, Concencieo, Kovac and Allegri have all been contacted and all have said they would not consider working for Wolves under the current set up.

Surely Guo must be asking questions of Shi too.

Wandering Star

1.) 11 Dec 2024 15:59:27
Wandering Star no manager who is any ware decent are not going to work under Fuson with there policy of sell to buy that's why GON still has job. Now because of there transfer policy there now saying we will spend money in jan transfer window because relegation is on the cards.It should never have come to this if the club was run properly stop the up and coming and buyplayers we need with experience.


2.) 11 Dec 2024 16:00:07
I have come to the conclusion Wandering, that Shi is just a "paper" CEO with no real authority.
We need to hear directly from Guangchang about his plans.


3.) 11 Dec 2024 16:14:21
Doesn't Guo have to question himself?


4.) 11 Dec 2024 18:53:27
What questions is he going to ask exactly?!
Guo: 'Jeff did you do exactly what you were told to do, regarding winding down the costs at that minor part of our large investment portfolio (Wolves)?'
Jeff: 'Yes boss, yes I did' ?
Conversation over! Sorry but this regular insinuation that Jeff has somehow gone rogue is almost funny (I mean look at the guy, I doubt he even knows what 'rogue' is)?! Jeff's done exactly what Fosun want him to do because that's his job and I'm afraid that's all there is to it! ?


5.) 11 Dec 2024 19:39:26
But why would Guo allow Shi to run the club so far into the ground that no one wants to work there. How is that going to help them sell the club?


6.) 11 Dec 2024 20:24:35
To be honest Wandering I've come to realise (a while back) that they just don't really care! If they were serious about growing the club they would have spent money on the stadium/infrastructure which they haven't done at all!
At this stage I think they are quite happy for us to bob along until they want to sell and as long as we are in the Prem at the point then they will make a good return! What difference does it make to them if we spend a couple of seasons in the Champ provided it doesn't cost um much?! You don't get into the position Gou is in if your a stupid man, as such do you really think he just leave Jeff to his own devices?! I'm pretty sure Gou is sending Jeff mails every couple of months with the odd instruction beyond that as long as we aren't asking for money I suspect he really doesn't give a hoot to be honest! Sad but also the only thing which truly explains Fosuns completely laxical approach! ?


7.) 11 Dec 2024 20:40:17
Well hopefully someone like Jeff Bezos will decide to buy us and invest.


8.) 11 Dec 2024 21:11:36
I don't think Guangchang has become what he is with Fosun running around and not giving a hoot. Fosun is not a factory in east Germany 1970. He is clearly a person who wants to see results. If this means he will sell out or invest is impossible to know. They clearly will do something. Will anyone be interested? Wolves is a brand and premier league only have room for 20 teams in this formula 1 for football. It's a very exclusive club for rich owners. So don't talk yourself down as a club. You are one of twenty in the whole world.


9.) 12 Dec 2024 00:14:38
I get your point Skrekken but Gou hasn't had time to give a hoot. In reality we are a very small part in a company which turns over large amounts more than our club is even worth! And your right it's not just a factory in East Germany, it's a mutli national conglomerate with MUCH bigger plates to spin!
And in the last few years Fosun have had to REALLY spin those plates due to very real liquity issues, not to mention having to deal with their credit rating being downgraded to BB- (as a result of said liquity issues). In short Gou has had MUCH bigger problems than weather or not Gary can get the job done at Ipswich! I believe things have improved for Fosun but in the grand scheme of things I can't help but feel Jeff's mail address has probs been auto set by Gou to 'Do not disturb' at least for the last two years (they were downgraded in Sept 22). So OK your right to say he may not be choosing to not give a hoot, I suspect that's just how it's played out. Sadly either way the results are the same for us, both financially and literally (on the pitch)!
Also just for the record Sek fella, I agree we shouldn't talk the club down but I'm not. I'm talking about the owenrs and frankly right now nothing I say could get the opinion much lower of them than it currently is on the terraces! ??


10.) 12 Dec 2024 08:18:02
That was a very good response Bullyboys. Thank you.


11.) 12 Dec 2024 09:29:53
Your very welcome buddy, I just wish I new how to spell liquidity properly (thank goodness for auto correct this time)! ? Let's hope whatever happens things get better soon eh ?


12.) 12 Dec 2024 09:49:39
Well Wandering if its true that these managers have turned us down and not just fake news that’s doing the rounds let’s hope Gary doesn’t decide he’s had enough and quits because we really would be up rubbish creek without a paddle!
Cast your mind back a few years when they tried to replace Mick and no one wanted it.


13.) 12 Dec 2024 10:32:47
Spot on, as usual, Bully's.Given that O'Neil is seemingly staying for the time being, it seems to me that aswell as a couple of good quality centre halves we should be putting a quality defensive coach at the top of our Xmas shopping list to help out our Gaz.It can't have escaped anyone's notice that going forward we are actually pretty good and that's without our best forward player from recent seasons, ie Neto. On the other hand we are absolutely abysmal defensively and can't defend set pieces for love nor money. Over to you Jeff/Matt.


14.) 12 Dec 2024 17:29:33
Well' if has been seen on one or two sites recently that Rod Edwards is the answer to the molinuex dilemma, then I'd say the club is cooked and we would be better off sticking with ofail' I mean Oniel.
Fosun need to bite the bullet, spend some money and give a decent manager the ammunition to keep us up.
Then they can look to sell up and recoup what ever they put into the club.
As laudable as being self sustaining is, it's obviously not working for us at the minute, and I'd put that down to making the squad threadbare to a point that we can't compete on the pitch.Not winning matches and flirting with relegation isn't really inspiring for potential new supporters or investors.


15.) 12 Dec 2024 18:44:57
Question if the board sacked O’Neil (fingers crossed) who would be caretaker manager

Also I wonder if big Sam would want to take over for a short term maybe end of season is a wolves fan and was born local just a thought?


16.) 12 Dec 2024 20:01:23
No thanks to big Sam! People still talk like he's the master of relegation despite his last two jobs finishing in relegation! I don't care if he's local the mans a relic of a begone era!


17.) 12 Dec 2024 20:12:49
Local man certainly but never seen anything saying he’s a Wolves fan infact I think he turned us down in the past. Tell you what, why not get Terry Connor back!?


18.) 13 Dec 2024 11:24:37
Big Sam is indeed a Wolves fan and that is the main reason why he would never manage us. He has stated that he could never take the job as he didn't want to be the fan who realised his dream of managing his club without bringing success.

Ed,

Can you confirm what the Home Grown ruke is in relation the 25 man squad.

Internet searches say that out of a 25 man squad, 8 have to be Home Grown leaving a maximum of 17 overseas players, but at the moment Wolves have named a 24 man squad with 6 Home Grown and 18 overseas.

Wandering Star

{Ed001's Note - that applies to over 21s only and the requirement doesn't have to be met just yet. If there are 18 overseas players over the age of 21, then one will have to be left out when the final squad is confirmed. The cut off date for them to qualify as under 21 is 1st Jan 2003.}


 

 

02 Feb 2025 10:25:07
My Spurs supporting Cousin is wandering why they've signed Danso as he ain't getting in ahead of Romero, Van Der Ven or Dragusin.

He's told me that fellow Spurs fans don't really want him as he'll be surplus to requirements in the summer.

Wandering Star

1.) 02 Feb 2025 11:06:17
My son is a Spurs supporter Wandering, something clearly going wrong in the breeding process sadly! As he says it's most unusual for Levy to show such desperation to go and pay top whack and give a guy a five and a half year contract to sit on the bench when all the defence are back fit. I hope the unscrupulous deceitful miserable git that Danso is has an awful time in Northwest London when he could have played for a decent proper football club in the nearest place to heaven he could hope for!


2.) 02 Feb 2025 11:26:14
If he supports Spurs then he should know precisely why to be honest?! Cause even I know that whilst being fantastic players (sadly) Romero and Van der Ven struggle to complete a full season of games between um! Both players spend more time in the physios room than they do the pitch!


3.) 02 Feb 2025 11:29:38
I hope danso plays on the 12 th of April. The crowd can give him hell
Plus a couple of rough tackles wouldn't go amiss


4.) 02 Feb 2025 11:48:20
Not sure why he's wondering, Wandering because the other three are hardly top notchers.


5.) 02 Feb 2025 12:06:44
Van Der Ven struggles every season but Romero, before this season wasn't really injured for long periods. When fit, Romero and MVDV are the 1st choice pairing so I can understand the loan deal for the remainder of this season, but to commit to a further 5 years?


6.) 02 Feb 2025 12:16:37
Shouldn't you be disowning your son, Ken? Not brought up properly either methinks.??


7.) 02 Feb 2025 13:41:25
Old Wulf. That would be a bit harsh mate. That one supports Spurs and the other one Man Utd. If I disown the pair of them I'll have no one to leave all my debts to and that would be a shame wouldn't it!


8.) 02 Feb 2025 14:11:56
Actually Wandering as any Spurs fan will tell you Romero is just as bad! In his two and a half season at Spurs he's had 11 injuries! Also why in his first season he only managed 27 games. Besides all of which as far as Danso is concerned he only needs one of um to be injured and history suggests that they will be. As for the length of the contract I suspect like most clubs are doing it's probs more about spreading the liability for ffp? Eitherway it makes no difference to us now, onto the next target.


9.) 02 Feb 2025 15:31:29
So 27 games out of 38? Followed by 33 out of 38? Yes, I agree, a complete crock.


10.) 02 Feb 2025 17:00:17
Haha, luckily this one is easy, so as of today he could of played in 100 games at Spurs, he has in fact played in 72. So it's pretty easy to work out that's he's been injured for almost a third of his time at Spurs (28%) is that a good injury record is it? My word what an odd thing to want to debate! ?


11.) 02 Feb 2025 19:00:27
You must have missed my comment when I put "before THIS season". But hey ho, whatever mays you happy.


12.) 02 Feb 2025 19:53:56
What like in 2022 when he was out for 81 days with a hamstring injury, guessing that wasn't before this season either then? ?


13.) 02 Feb 2025 21:23:18
My bad, I was only using the last 3 seasons.


14.) 02 Feb 2025 21:26:57
But the facts still remains that Danso does not replace Vice Captain Romero or Van Der Ven when they are available.


15.) 03 Feb 2025 11:39:25
Oh I don't disagree buddy and (just to calrify:) please don't think I'm having a go at you. It's more that half my friends are Spurs fans and they've done the classic Spurs fans thing of going 'well we don't have a enough players and must sign some' then the moment they do they all go 'not that one sign someone better'! ?

As far as Danso goes my REAL frustration is that it feels like he never really wanted to come, the latest deal was (supposedly) a loan with no fee agreed?! I mean why even bother? For me, at that point the club should have read the room and told him to jog on! Hey ho, onwards and upwards let's just hope we are all happy by the end of today fella?


 

 

01 Feb 2025 19:56:01
I've not always been his biggest fan but Toti was immense tonight. Him, Agbadou and possibly Danso will be formidable.

The whole team played well tonight.

Let's hope some players are lined up and ready to go on Monday. Bed them in against Blackburn then get the Liverpool game out if the way and watch us climb the table.

Wandering Star

1.) 01 Feb 2025 21:01:08
As Thomo said on wolves extra the whole evening was an event, everyone played well, we showed an intensity in closing down and cutting out, a clean sheet 3 points and it was Derby day. A packed mol cheering again. Everybody will be lifted by it and come Monday we'll all have a different mindset.


2.) 01 Feb 2025 21:56:39
I agree Wandering, have to say I give the club a lot of stick re:signings (or lack of:) but actually think Agbadou already looks like fantastic business exactly the sort of player we need! I also see the E and S are now saying Danso is penciled in for a medical with a loan agreed. If true what a great wkend all round for the club! COYW ?


3.) 01 Feb 2025 22:30:34
Oh and a new contract for Cunha announced, if Carling made wkends and all that! ???


4.) 01 Feb 2025 20:27:52
Couldn't agree more Wandering. Maybe Toti was playing with an injury for a while? Because tonight he was excellent alongside Agbadou. If Danso is announced tomorrow I think the three of them could potentially be a solid back line; which we haven't had for quite sometime.


5.) 02 Feb 2025 00:55:21
He's going to spurs.he's a waste of time


 

 

31 Jan 2025 16:53:06
So no Gomes tomorrow due to suspension.

VP obviously doesn't rate Doyle so who plays in the centre of the park alongside Andre?

I'd go 442:
GK: Sa
RB: DOCERTY
LB: Toti
CB: Dawson
CB: Agbadou
RW: Semedo
LW: Gomes
CM: Andre
CM: AIT
ST: Cunha
ST: Guedes

Under no circumstances do Hwang or Bellegarde start.

Wandering Star

1.) 31 Jan 2025 17:12:18
If bellegarde starts, I won't be watching I'm afraid


2.) 31 Jan 2025 17:20:40
AIT for me needs to be dropped, he is luxury that is not performing and is no Center mid in shape or form, Doyle needs to start in middle


3.) 31 Jan 2025 23:04:55
So with 3 of that back 4, we might as well start with 8 men wandering. leaves me wondering what you're wondering wandering?. got to agree with hwang n bellegarde though.


4.) 01 Feb 2025 10:38:57
Vitor says even without Larsen he will still play the same system. Give us a clue to what that system is Vitor? Is it playing out from the back with players who can't pass a ball 5 yards, or allowing crosses in to the box with no one who can head a ball? Or hitting teams on the break at walking pace. Sorry Vitor your lack of experience in the Premier is letting you and us down.


 

 

30 Jan 2025 22:17:55
So we knew at the end of the last window that we needed 1 CB.

We then lost Mosquera for the rest of the season and realised we actually needed 2 CBs.

We sack GON and tell the world we need extra players as our squad is too small.

We sign 1 CB, sell 2 midfielders and have an injured striker. We pretend to be in negotiations with a number of players just to fill the fans with false hope and end up with a smaller squad than we had at the start of the year.

Enough is enough.

Wandering Star

1.) 30 Jan 2025 23:43:48
Haha, oh Wandering I couldn't agree more buddy! But in the nicest of ways fella this is precisely what we have been trying to tell you all season! As I've always said, the club KEEPS setting up manager after manager to fail whilst spinning the story to fans that this is a manager problem?! Sorry but this is a 'club' problem and it has been for about four seasons now!
Even if by some miracle we spend our way out of relegation AGAIN this window, what have we REALLY learnt?! Because come the summer we will sell Cunha to make up the difference and be right back where we started this season! At some point something HAS to change, otherwise it's a simple case of when not if we will be back in the Champ and facing very REAL financial problems! I do (honestly:) try to be positive but I genuiley feel like us fans have been living in a groundhog day since the moment Nuno left! ?


2.) 31 Jan 2025 04:24:02
Well said BullysBoy we just go through the process and rinse and repeat. But it's a cycle where the ultimate destination is a downward spiral. Sensible management would have made such a big difference but hey it's getting close to being too late for that!


3.) 31 Jan 2025 08:49:09
Bully I have to say that the evidence of how this club is managed supports your view. This last minute play acting about a mediocre signing which does not come off is just a seasonal repeat. They have half a year to, prepare signings of quality but have failed to do so in the last 5-6 windows. The family silver is now looking sparse, any more fire sales of quality players will render the position beyond hopeless. Right now it looks bleak, with dependence of outcome on what others do.no way to plan or manage.


4.) 31 Jan 2025 12:32:04
I agree we are being set up to fail.
The bids maybe genuine but the reality is who is actually going to come.
I'd love us to sign a few ex Benfica players like Ferro (CB International), Rafa Silva etc.
I agree Dan's is a smoke screen. What about Vinicius at Fulham to replace Larsen? He's not playing ATM.
Why not try cheekily for Felix on loan?

All these guys played in Lage's teams.

We really screwed Nuno and Bruno and Julen. I know people doubt Bruno Lage but his team beat Juventus the other night .
Pipe dreams one and all.

If we stay up, he'll stay unless someone offers the money the club want for him.

Villa did it with Jack Grealish a few years ago.

It's the club protecting their asset.

I thought Agbadou, Doc and Toti were excellent as a defensive unit on Saturday.

Toti was always looking to move forward and start the attacks.

Agbadou provided stability at the back if we lost the ball in midfield and Doc did a bit of both.

But Djiga looks like he's an upgrade on Doc and personally, I think he, Toti and Agbadou will strike fear into strikers just by the sheer size of them as well as their defensive qualities.

Although we've brought players in, we cannot pass judgement until they've played. Hopefully Saturday will be an ideal time to bed them in.

I mentioned after the game that although I think Toti is likely to make a mistake, alongside Agbadou, he looked like a man transformed. We all know that Toti likes to venture forward and earlier this season, if he misplaced a pass or was tackled, we'd be in trouble. But with Agbadou now in place to cover we look so much stronger at the back and even better going forward.
