12 Days of Nuno

[Sedgley Wolf]

I'm helping my nephew do a festive creative writing exercise for school and, as a big Wolves fan, he's decided to use it to pay homage to his hero, Nuno.

Inspired by Deutsch's series, I've hit on the idea of doing a Wolves version of the 12 Days of Christmas, for Nuno's reign so far.

Time's running out so I thought I'd ask the forum for ideas/improvements on the current list. So far, we have;


12 goals for Neves

11 Euro group goals

10 Euro Wins

9 Portuguese (Patricio, Neves, Moutinho, Jota, Vinagre, Cavaleiro, Costa, Neto, Miranda)

8 is Ruben Neves

7th placed finish

6 coaches hugging

FIVE GOLDEN WINS (Villa 2-0 (h), Cardiff 1-0 (a), Spurs 3-1 (a), United 2-1 (h - cup QF), Man City 2-0 (a)

4 Euro Champions (Rui, Neves, Moutinho, Jota)

3 French Men (Boly, Saiss and Deslandes)

2 Goals at City


And...




A Coady in a Back Three



Thanks in advance!

2 Goals at City?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

3 French Men (clutching at straws here but have we had another French speaker other than Boly and Saiss under Nuno? Shame, might have to be two)

Mine and your good loanee friend, Monsieur Deslandes!

Even played in the league once (Forest away)

 

[machin05]

11 goals in Europe (well, group stage)

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

4 Euro Champions (Rui, Neves, Moutinho and Jota were all in the squad when Portugal won the Nations League)

 

[Sedgley Wolf]

Some great shouts! I'll add them to the list.

And how could I forget Deslandes?! #landofsylvain

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

6 goals for Raul (this year's league tally to date)

 

[Stan Hullis]

Potentially something better out there but...

"8 is Ruben Neves"

 

[Rui_CostCo]

And some Yen for Nuno from Jeff Shi

 

[White Wolf]

If we hadn't lost to Spurs it would be 12 games unbeaten! 12 games in Europe? IIRC Dendoncker also cost 12m.

6 coaches hugging?

When Nuno and the bench all celebrate a goal.

I think there's 6 of them any way.

12th Man at Molineux

(shit I know)

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

12th Man at Molineux

(shit I know)

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

And some Yen for Nuno from Jeff Shi

Yuan, surely?

 

[Tredman]

8 players left (from our championship winning team, Ruddy, doc, Coady, Bennett, Boly, neves, Jota and MGW)

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

How dare you leave out Oskar Buur!

 

[Tredman]

Did he play in the league...?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

SCORED in the league.

 

[Tredman]

Ah, Hull? Memorable. Up until a week ago I’d have said not part of the first team picture, but that’s ruined that.

6 - Victories in Qualifying rounds for EL.

Not sure how to word that though
