Good Morning All
Hope that you are all well and enjoying the Euro's.
So as we all know, we are entering 'silly season', where we get linked with all and sundry. Here are a couple of my thoughts, I don't mean to be argumentative, just my thoughts.
Departures.
Patricio - Great keeper. But, I do feel he has a tendency to get beaten at his near post, 33 yrs old earning 100k a week, I would sell with right offer, but if he stays, i'm fine with that as well.
Neves - I think Neves has gone a little stale at Wolves. But I do think he has gone stale due to the tactics played by Nuno. I personally think that he wants to move on. But what a player he has been for us, who would have thought when M and M were running the club that we would ever see a player like Neves in a Gold shirt. If and when he does go, thank you Ruben. Its been a blast.
Moutinho - I have mixed feelings about this one. On one hand, 100k a week for a plyer approaching 35! But. Make no bones about it. Mout is the BEST PLAYER I HAVE EVER SEEN IN A WOLVES SHIRT. By a country mile. And, with Neves going, I wonder if an older head might be needed in and around that midfield if we are bringing new players in. Oh, and while i'm on. Surely he must already be a candidate to be the next manager of our club.
Traore - For me, this is the one we keep. Get the contract sorted. He is a game changer and his pace scares EVERY defender in the Prem to death. We ALL get frustrated with him. I know that. but if we are going to a more attacking free flowing style then he could be a major player for us.
Arrivals.
Of course this is just pure speculation. But of all the names being bandied about, these are the players that I would be happy to see come in -
Sa
Tarkowski
Paulinha
Kang Li
Guedes
Vinicius
Of course this is just my wish list. But if we lost ALL the players that I mention above, then I think these would be suitable replacements.
Anyway, just my thoughts. As always, I look forward to seeing any replies.
Devoted.

Like it mate. Can't argue with that.
Let's see what happens. As you said silly season. 😀.

No arguments from me devoted, whatever happens the guys that leave have been tremendous for us and we owe them our position now and the great memories. It's sad when things break up as they have but as I said before it was all getting abit stale and we certainly going to get some fresh air. Good luck to all that leave and thank you. To Bruno and anyone joining us good luck too and we'll be right behind you.

Hi devoted not much I can add as I think the same as you greyleg and Abbey.
I trust in fosun shi and now the new manager Lage.
All I see is fosun doing the best they can to make us a top club in the country.
I believe fosun know what they are doing and are smart.
I get fans frustrations but all we can do is wait and see.
Every wolves fan I am the same a wolves a fan and always on your side.
We find out tonight who we play in the round of 16.
A nice goal by england I thought it took a 19 year kid to have the confidence to break ranks and take his man on which ultimately led to our goal.

Only one thing for me, we CANNOT let Neves leave.
Absolutely correct last season's tactics messed him up.
We have to build a team around him, we shouldn't be thinking about letting him or Traore go.

I watching Slovakia v spain.
Wow I have never seen an own goal like that before.
Lol I'm sure we won't be buying the slovakian goalie.
I was kinda thinking/ hoping it would remain goal less and the spanish manager brings on Traore with 15/ 20 minutes to go.
