I'm gona put it out there but is Kretji that good? I ain't seen that much of him to say he's top quality.

Krejci hasn't been used in his best position while at Wolves, so it's difficult to know his high potential. But, based on his versatility and more consistent play, he was one of our better players last year.
I think his World Cup play showcased his abilities more. That's one reason Wolves are holding out for more transfer fees. He will be a great asset to the club that gets him.

I think the fact he is captain for his country says a lot. Like NJWolf says, we've no way of seeing the best of him, or what he's capable of.

I agree with NJWolf.

Is he one who refuses to play in the Championship? Can't blame him once he's been on the world stage. ??♂️
He must have a queue outside his door!

It's reported that Wolves have too many centre halves and need to sell before they secure a new cb from Peixote's old team. We're looking for a new midfielder, but again need to sell before we buy. There could be a simple answer, and one that gives us more flexibility.
Show intent, and prove to Krejci that we are going for promotions, and play him in midfield as he does for his country. Then, when the accident that we know is going to happen - Mosquera being sent off - we have the ready-made answer on the pitch.

I agree he's a strong player. Even in a woeful defence (last season), his reading of the game and positioning were excellent. Not sure what you mean about the midfield stuff, though, Penko, as he very clearly started as a CB for the entire WC.
He was on the left-hand side of a back three. He said himself when he signed that he's a CB that can play in midfield and not the other way round. Either way, if we are serious about building a squad, we should be doing so around him and Andre. ?

I'd read that he was originally a central midfielder - I stand corrected, BullysBoy, but I still believe we should build around Krejci, Trippier, H Beuno, R Gomes, Andre, Fer Lopez, Raul, Mane - lacking a goalkeeper, forward and a quick centre half.
Mosquera, if he cuts out his nonsense and plays to the whistle instead of feigning injury, has the makings of a good, solid player, but 10 bookings and the inevitable red card once or twice a season makes him the accident waiting to happen.
The players that don't want to be at Wolves should take a long, hard look at themselves in the mirror. They simply didn't perform, and all the moaning in the world isn't going to get another team to fork out and provide a lifeline elsewhere. Performance related contracts are rife in business, why not in sport.

No worries, Penko, mate, I think you are right (in that he was originally a cm), but he seems to be best as a CB these days. ?

Penko and BB, agree with your views on Krejci, and Penko, def agree re your idea of the core of the side.
Sa (or new if he can't be persuaded/get his head in gear).
Trippier
Yerson
Krejci/new
Bueno/Wolfe
Andre
new/Krejci
Mane
Lopez
Gomes/Armstrong
Raul
But a very thin bench?
