Lankshear to Middlesborough 10mill with add ons could hit 20mill. No way are Wolve going to pay that. If im right Wolves signings over 20mill. Since Fuson took over Jiminez, Cuhna, Krejci, now im struggling if anyone knows others. I would like to know even in the PL Wolves didn't spend big not on players 20mill or over.

Guedes, Semado, Fabio.

To be honest, our sales worry me more than our purchases. So, West Ham have now made over £150m off just two players. Meanwhile, we couldn't even break the £40m mark for our best player. Anyone shouting about giving Fosun a chance needs to give their heads a wobble, cause it's just a different s*** doing the same s***. ?

Fosun are an absolute joke. They accept what are clearly below value offers for our best players because everyone knows that we no longer have a good negotiator at the club. No doubt we'll go out and overpay for another waste of space player over the coming weeks.

Tolu was over 20, wasn't he?

BB and Good, you can have RAN, Neves, MGW and Gomes for less than the price of Summerville, a modest Prem player, and Fernandes, who - albeit to my v biased eyes - isn't a patch on any one of Gomes, MGW or Neves!
I don't understand it, but you have to ask why, for example, this summer Spurs or Man United didn't call Wolves.
As many have said, Wolves sell players - ok, sometimes poorly/far too quickly as in the case of RAN - into a market.
Although everyone knows that Wolves are a distressed seller, (and whilst that won't help get the best price), that surely should merely have increased the number of sharks circling?
In this case, if anyone had wanted to pay more for Gomes in a summer when a number of CMs were sold for massive fees, they had plenty of time to call Wolves.
However, if you are looking for the real problem, it is not the appalling transfer market record, although that is indeed appalling in virtually every aspect of it, but the massively out of control cost base. (if it isn't, as many vehemently claim, Fosun milking the company, what is it?)
As I have said many times before, if Wolves had not mind-blowingly underperformed Brentford, then over the last few years it wouldn't have had £150m more money to play with - like West Ham after their sales - and been able to keep Neves, Gomes, RAN and MGW, but hundreds of millions allowing them to keep those 4 plus Jota, Cunha, Neto, Collins, etc etc.
Of course, if Wolves, for whatever reason, and it surely was to cover the massive losses they started incurring once Jeff took control, hadn't started buying and selling players appallingly (and fallen out with Nuno or, for that matter, Lopetegui), then not only wouldn't they have needed to sell players, but those players wouldn't have wanted to leave a team* that may well have been playing European football most years!
* Without the unnecessary sales Wolves could line up: Sa, Semedo, Collins, Krejci, RAN, Neves, Gomes, MGW, Neto, JSL, Cunha, with subs such as Nunes, Emmanuel, Andre, etc, and tragically that doesn't even include Jota.
