Summer 2021 transfer window

[Jinky]

He’s not, but I won’t try to persuade you otherwise mate!

 

[Wilf Wolf]

I am just going to take a wild guess and see if at any time this comes to pass.

Neves , Traore ,Moutinho,Mir , Cutrone all to go=110m

Paulinho Guedes to come in. -Team to be

Sa
Semedo Coady Boly RAN
Trincao Paulinho Dendonker Neto
Jimenez Guedes

Ruddy
MGW
Fabio
Saiss
Podence
Kilman
Hoever
Mosquera

You could then add two or three to the squad.

If we raise £110m and still start with Coady and Boly at CH forget the pitchforks, someone needs shooting!

 

[Derby Wolf]

Don’t get the criticism of Vinicius on here. He was hardly given a chance at Spurs and still managed 1 goal in every 2 games he played and he chipped in with a bunch of assists (IIRC). Had a good hit rate at Benfica before that.

At 26, he’s a good age - he walks in our side ahead of Fabio and I reckon he’d link well with Raul in a 442. For the right fee, I’d be happy with him.

Im neither here or there on the prospect but 3 of those goals were against Marine which pads out his record a bit tbh.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Vinicius' goals came against:

Ludogorets x 2 (lost every single game in the Europa League group)
Antwerp (absolutely humped by Rangers, conceding 9 in the two legs)
Marine x 3 (FFS)
Wolfsberger x 3 (the 5th best team in Austria)
Aston Villa (fine, I'll give you that)

As we aren't in Europe and can't count on drawing eighth tier teams in the FA Cup then I think I'll pass if we're using his Spurs record as a qualification. He didn't look a great deal better than Willian José, honestly. Exact same traffic cone movement and hiding from the ball.

 

[Tredman]

I’m going to put you down as a ‘maybe’.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

In fairness Cutrone and Fabio failed to score against 7th tier (?) Chorley.

Braithwaite or Vinicius?

 

[Templeton Peck]

Braithwaite or Vinicius?

McLoughlin or Paskin?

 

[NicholasG1973]

Braithwaite or Vinicius?

Corica or Ferguson?

 

[Throbber3]

Frankowski or Taylor?
This game could go on all night. We are Wolves after all. We do have a somewhat iffy transfer history pre Fosun.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Braithwaite or Vinicius?

Neither ta very much

 

[jdrodrigues]

Nuno manager Porto 2016-2017
Sa Porto player 2016-2018

So he was but over that period with Porto he only played 15 league games and 16 for the B team, so more than likely he was in the B team when Nuno had his season there

Fair nuff, I didn't remember him being there at the same time. But being in the B team makes sense.

 

[Jinky]

The Athletic have suggested we made an approach to loan Dean Henderson earlier in the summer but it was "firmly rejected".

That is quite interesting. Maybe Sa wasn't as cut and dry as we have been led to believe in terms of being our first choice target?

Just in case Ruddy said no...

@Gazzetta_IT have us in negotiations with Rafael Leão from AC Milan.

 

[AndyWolves]

We're going full Kevin Keegan

Are they reliable? I think a lot of people would be happy with Leao (despite his goal scoring record being far worse than someone like Vinicius) because he is younger and played in a competitive league.

He can play wide, as a second striker or through the middle, so I can see the appeal.

 

[Tony Towner]

You can guess his nationality and agent, so very easy to make up, but equally plausible. We are lacking a central forward

 

[David Webb]

Frankowski or Taylor?

That's putting it mildly!

 

[WolfMan]

Just watched Leao's YouTube highlights (insert usual caveat about not being able to judge a player on YT here) Jesus wept....looks amazing!
