Serious question: in a straight swap, who would swap Neves for João Gomes?
I wouldn't.
I'd like them both but that's not an option.

I think Neves would be great alongside Lemina.

Gomes is a different sort of player and I don't think Neves alongside Gomes would work as they are both deeper players who don't get forward as Lemina is capable of.

You're basically saying would I take £45m for Gomes, assuming Neves wanted to see his career out back at Wolves? The answer is a resounding yes.

 

[Wolftone]

Probably an unfair question by me. O'Neil has given players the chance to play and express themselves.

 

[The Bear]

Why Gomes?

Probably because he's a player playing a similar position who has a lot of potential.

 

[Wolftone]

I’m confused.

He’s gone, anyway.

Doors always open. But im not Fosun

 

[1986]

It was very transparent and he's admitted as such. He does what Mendes tells him.

That essentially means that he does not have a mind of his own , totally controlled by a rich agent .

Why do you think he came to a lower mid table Championship side? Controlled is strong, heavily trusting probably fair.

Because he was very young and could afford to gamble and get it wrong .
He's in his prime now , a time to kick on and continue his development . He'll learn nothing out there .
I'd love to see what role O Neil would have for him were he still here .

He's on £300kpw. That's where is begins and ends as a discussion really from his perspective. He's already said he's there for the money

As we stand today, i would keep gomez, loved ruben, but we've moved on.

They're not really similar in style, though.

Neves and Gomes would be fine, Gomes gets forward and out wide far more than Ruben did. Different skillets.

Different skillets.

Out of the frying pan and into the fire

Banging rendition of the Price Is Right theme tune, to boot. (Assume y’all’s version always featured that saxophone)

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

I really liked Price.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Great bloke and a decent player, we just outgrew him. Will always get bonus points for nailing that no-necked cunt Forestieri after he cheated to get Sako sent off.

It was glorious. I think I celebrated that more than a goal

 

[Alan]

Best non-DP dead ball specialist in MLS by some margin while he was here. And a great captain, too.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Non DP?
