Easy to say after the fact though in fairness. Like i said in a previous post no one would have ever envisaged Raul fracturing his skull. Fabio was never bought as a proven ready to go striker.It's not a personal attack on Fabio. I like the kid and I want him to be a star at Wolves.
He may be the best player in the world at 22, but it's not reasonable to ask us to wait four years to have an opinion on him or his signing!
It's a (mild) criticism of Nuno/the club.
If you're spending that much on a striker and it's your only striker signing then we don't really have the luxury of putting him in a cocoon for three or four years. We're Wolves, not an elite club.
If you don't think he's ready then, by all means sign him, but get someone else who can step in or share the load in the event that your only striker and star player has to miss some games
I do see your point though as 35 mil for a kid raised eyebrows, but i see why they spent it. I think brexit and the new rules had a lot to do with getting him quick rather than bartering and taking time to get him. You have to trust the scouting staff on this purchase.
