Summer 2022 Transfer Window

Wouldn't happen

hence my 4 goals scored at Anfield to compare the chances of it happening (although I could have also said 1 goal and the point would be the same).

Its not just us though, no doubt Villa fans are currently saying "get him in....whoever the Villa version of Jeff is"

For all the benefits we've had of the relationship with Mendes, it's probably stopping us from working like this tbf.

And yeah, I agree I have no idea what a Lage squad would meant to look like either. Minus a fit tall striker and another centre back, this seems to be it mind you! I think we have a good squad anyway capable of playing a more aggressive game now. Agree there's a mentality shift that needs to happen but often that comes with confidence in the coach and that he has your back I thinnk

I too think Mendes is an obstacle to that practice ever being fully realised. There's always going to be an element of getting players that it suits Mendes to move rather than those who are necessarily the best fit for what Wolves want/need, it doe at least appear that they've moved away from him and extended the net wider than his circle.

There's always a chance a different voice has a different effect on the players but I think it depends how deeply rooted their current mindset too. I know there are things in my job that some people might insist I did differently, perfectly valid alternative methods that I'd go along with if it was that important to them, but if push came to shove and it went wrong I'd soon be reverting to type with my tried and trusted ways. Likewise there have been times I've come across alternative methods that have swayed me completely and I now utilise as my standard approach.

That human element to it is the least predictable and hardest to master in my opinion. It's why I've little appetite for ever getting into any sort of management role in my own progression.

Could easily have more than a quarter of the league changing managers well before the World Cup break.

Parker and Tuchel gone. Lage, Rodgers and Gerrard all on very shaky ground at the moment. Brighton need to replace Potter if he goes to Chelsea.

Isn't it Solbakken's old Asst from his time with us?

Purslow is mentioned in the get him in posts on VileTalk.

Lange is in charge of the scouting and signings.

I'm suprised we haven't heard anything about slow traore arriving at compton yet

Likewise, i would have thought we'd have heard something about Costa by now

Costa was due into the Country last night. So probably not even due in to Compton until late this morning/this afternoon. Only things we will see of that is if that fan gets up his tree again until he gets a WP.

No clue on Traore though. Presume we will get a drop of images from the SM team at some point

 

[Del Woppio]

His shirt is available on the club shop website, so presume it's gone through

Its all sorted. No issues on that side of things.

Just when he arrives at the club or if he has already we have been a bit quiet about it. Maybe a ban on images from Compton in case fans spot Andy Carroll lurking in the background...

 

[Lupo]

I thought they released images of Traore in a Wolves shirt the other day?

 

[Lupo]

Could spot Carroll lurking around Compton from Tettenhall

We did the images we took in Metz when our team went over to him to sign him up and do the medical etc. Nothing from him in Wolverhampton yet (unless they snook that out of course and we have all been looking at Diego Costa)

Wrong thread I know - but I don't want to see Tuchal here .

Bad habit of falling out with lots of people .

 

[Kenny]

Costa not in the country. Delayed until the WP is sorted. Hoping by tonight (Little Liam says so)

 

[AndyWolves]

i'm convinced that the links to Carroll are a "dead cat on the table" from wolves so that we think Costa is a much better option than he is!

 

[Wolf Hunting]

If the Appeal tribunal take the full 48 hrs, doesn't that bring us to tomorrow morning?

Not an appeal just goes to a panel to look at the application as it just misses out on the automatic approve criteria. Time frame is up to 48 hours, so can be done before. Looks like the club expecting the panel to sit today.

The article linking him to us was very very flaky indeed and seemed to use Carroll to guarantee a few hits and views.

Don't think you have to worry. I mentioned him this morning tongue in cheek, he's absolutely miles ahead of the kind of manager we are attracting currently. He manages elite football clubs not midtable teams.
