You need time to build a team and that is what we are doing

Welcome to the site Rince ? I get your point but I'm just not sure it's that simple. I mean it's all well and good building a team but when you spend £35m and give one of the biggest contracts in the club to a striker that ain't even good enough to play for it then I'm not sure how that's going to help us 'build'? Or when we spend a (at the time record amount) of £18m on a player who we then watch wind down a contract and leave on a free (Adama) then again how's that building?
I like you premise but like Timber says it relys on the idea that we are getting closer season on season to the promise land (European football) when in actual fact as we all know we were closest to that in our first two seasons in the Prem. I am actually more concerned that we've let things get fairly desperate. After seeing our first two games I'm going to say something I've NEVER said on here and agree with some other posters. If we don't get at least a striker over the line then I think we will be pulled into the relegation battle and I've never said that since Fosun arrived! As I keep saying only three teams scored less than us last year and ALL three are now playing in the Championship!

The trouble is when buying potential, it is not always reached. There has been some errors yes but Adama have is some good times and showed what he can do. Silva is unproven as yet but is showing some of his potential now he is getting game time. (Still over priced I agree) but all seem to forget the successes, Sa, Kilman, Neves, Moutinho, Jiminez, Patricia, and I am sure there are more. Our players are not being linked with big teams for nothing. I am not privy to any of football finances but I anm sure we are doing OK compared to others. It is frustrating when all others around are buying (Forest just competed their 13th signing) but are they all that fit the team. I honestly do not mind the slow and steady. As for the first two seasons under Nuno I think we were so well organised that other teams underrated us and we over performed. I am happy with a few seasons of mid table to consolidate our status

With the exception of Kilman all the other players you mention
Had experience a few of which had vast experience.I just don't see how you can overperform if you can play at that impressive level that's the level you can play at. You can certainly underperformed as we have done on many occasions

Simply, "the proof is in the pudding" . We have ended up slowly dropping down the league at the end of each season. We had our chance to build on being in Europe (with players wanting to play for us because we were in top seven) and then we sold Jota which for me seemed to bring an end to the Wolves project which was followed by the Wolves going concern, a buy, sell, money making concern.

You can not build a squad when you have players either refusing to play for the club or not signing a new contract and waiting to see if a bigger club come in for them. Cutrone-Traore-White-Nunes for example. We need to get rid or do not sign players who are not committed to the club and the fans, just my opinion.

Hi Rince and all, welcome Rinse.
My phone packed up so couldn't watch the match.
Talking to my brother who went to the match he said we had nothing up front and also he said the water breaks didn't help the flow of the game.
I was thinking you older generation the red hot heatwave summer in the 70's (remember my parents telling me about it),I bet there wasn't water breaks in that time.
The modern pampered footballers at times does irritate me a bit.
For me our ideal striker would have the qualities of bully go out there give 100% never give up keep the confidence and will in your abilities.

It's clear to me as obvious we need a goalscorer.
Since Jota sold we haven't had anyone close to the number of goals he scored other than jiminez.
Imo we are on the right track we just need definitely 1 goalscorer and another midfielder.
Centre back I think we are OK and imo money should be spent on attacking players critically.

Hopefully jiminez is back for the trip to Tottenham.

We tend do well at their place.

We had a team and a Manager, they didn’t want either, we didn’t need rebuilding we needed a couple of signings and faith in Nuno, his players who are still here know what happened and their best days at Wolves are history, hardly surprising Bruno can’t get a tune out of ‘em.

Phil where I was in 76 we didn't have water unless we queued at a stand pump, and, the was no draught ales at all in our pub. But yes a decent all out striker is needed. Raul works hard for the team.

14 Aug 2022 14:05:04
Phil if I recall the 76/77 season was our centenary and we were promoted as Div 2 champions after one season, but the season started later in those days, third week of August if I recall, I think the worst of the heatwave was probably over by then.

Cheers Arddunby and Abbey ?

There was a question I asked my brother and it was how was the crowd did they boo or was they behind the team.
My brother said it was the latter of which gives confidence going forward.
We or you bullysboy touched on this if the crowd turns then it will be some concern.
From the brief highlights I saw on MOTD Whang Neto podence and MGW all had spurned guilt edged chances.
I saw a good header from Fulham and the penalty nothing else.

I believe we are so close but say again its imperative we resolve our goals for column.

Bux- and as ever you aren't being constructive or forming an actual point?! Last time you had this exact same rant I pointed out to you that before his injury Neto was third across Europe for u21's with goal involvements but still you spout this absolute guff that he has no end product?! Its fine to have a moan on here, in fact I fully accept that I've spent the last 24 hours doing it but it would be a real treat if you tried to make an actual point about something?! Cause instead you sound somewhere between a fake fan on the wind up or a teenager having a melt down?! What does Jimenez and jonnu finished even mean?! Cause what it sounds like is that your completely writing off two players who have done more than enough to earn a bit of patience? Again it would be fine if you constructed it into a point like 'Jimenez isn't ever going to be the striker he was' but just saying he's 'finished' sounds like a bad line from Eastenders! Please for the sake of all of us make an ACTUAL point or suggestion of what you think the club needs to do?! I've seen plenty of rants from you but I'm yet to see you make a single coherent or constructive point?! ?

To be honest phil I think the heat affected everyone and cheering was subdued at times, that said the wasn't a lot to get behind. Guedes and traore both got loud receptions from what I could make out. Neto attempt would most likely have been offside, the lino flagged I belive but there was no need for VAR to look of course. Your bros right the drink breaks did break it up abit. As I said after the game I was abit disappointed but I remain optimistic. On another day we could have bee 2 up and cruising and a few infiltrators, for they can't be serious wolves fans, wouldn't have a lot to say.
