I still haven't forgiven the team for Saturdays performance against Chelsea i'd rather see our youth team out there.

Good evening my wolves friends,
I've been on here a few years now,and had some fantastic banter with you all,as you know I've heard rumours,of which I've passed on to you all,in good faith,
I've come across more news,and don't know if anyone else can throw any light on it,.
Apparently there's been another bust up in the camp,and a few players,not sure which,have told lage,they don't want to play for him,
Plus fosun have told lage to sell,neves,podence,Neto,
To finance next season's transfers
Have a good evening everyone ?

Or give some of the old lads who have retired a run out Rated.
Bully would have been our top scorer this season even at his age.

Hi Grey mate yes i've seen those rumours mate, Nathan Judah tweeted "don't let rumours get in the way of the truth." make of that what you will.

I get that yourself Grey (and others) are just passing on what they've heard but for me (without any proof other than social chat) it just shows the power of fake news! Look, its not that I don't believe there could have been a bust up (I'm sure they happen all the time at clubs) but I think that peeps MASSIVELY misunderestimate how much clubs control the info that's leaked. I suppose what I mean is that the more I read on forums/social media that there's been a bust up then the LESS I believe it! When that stuff ACTUALLY happens clubs have a tendancy to close ranks and get tight lipped, so I just don't see it. I can believe he's been told to sell and that fans have (naturally) then connected the dots to Neves, Neto and Podence as they are the players of highest value!
Let's be honest we will do VERY well to keep Neves this summer and I think we all need to start accepting that. He's been pure class this season and that doesn't go unnoticed I'm afraid! As for Podence and Neto if (and its a big if) they are sold this season then I really will lose all faith in Fosuns transfer policy! After both of their injury interrupted seasons to sell them this summer would mean letting them go for half there potiential value! If both or even just one has a top season next year then they will be worth double what we can get combined for um this summer (especially Neto)!
The way that I see it is that towards the end of a very respectable season our form has just dropped off the map! The natural reaction for peeps is to try and find an answer and as we know with social media these days if you can't find an answer then you just invent one and call it the truth! Again that's not aimed at any posters as I know they are just passing on info they have read/heard. Let me ask you this though, before this wkends performance had anyone heard even a murmer of discontent or feigned injuries in the squad?! The answers no!
What I don't get is why our fans are SO surprised by the drop off, we've done it EVERY year in the Prem. It's not about a bust up its about sqaud depth and we don't have any! So when it gets to this stage of the season and most have played 30+ games (cups included) the injuries pile up and the fatigue sets in we inevitably pay the price with lackluster performances! What I'm saying is that like most conspiracies this one has come about cause peeps don't want to accept the obvious answer and that is that we will KEEP seeing this every season (regardless of the manager) until we have a full bench/squad of players that are actually capable of holding down a starting place! COYW ?

Smashing post bullysboy ?
The rumours I like to believe are the positive ones.
Lage saying there is a transfer plan in place to get us in contention to do the jump into the top 6.
We all wait with baited breath for the summer transfer window.

Spot on BB it's only what a lot of us have already said. The squad isn't big enough. We got lucky in January when we were down to the bare bones. Just now it's caught up and we're paying for it. Brighton was a massive shocker though. Picking them up after that should not be difficult, they are playing for pride and respect now and hopefully places in the squad next season. Very much playing for their futures, I hope!

Spot on BB.

True the squad is threadbare and we are using u23's to plug gaps on the bench when necessary. let's not forget these are kids that don't at the moment play in u23 division 1. Hopefully that will change for next season. I get the dissapointment I was hoping we had started to progress this season but given the resources and politics Bruno has done a fair to reasonable job so far IMO but I don't want to see this drop in form carry on into next season, that's my biggest concern.

Spot on BB mate as Jas posted most likely Johnny was just rested, Jiminez was on bench due to his wife being heavily pregnant and could go into labour any moment which she did shortly after the match I believe.
As I added to Jas's post Podence can play through his injury with injections but he is unwilling to as he simply doesn't want to risk making the injury worse which is what happened last time.
I don't believe there has been any bust up tbh.
