Didn't we get decent money for some right dross when Nuno came in and we had a clear out?
Edwards, Dicko, Bod etc went for good money if I remember right, it's when we started to mix it with the big boys that he found himself out of his depth.
 
Looking forward to anyone trying to defend that. “But we’re 9th?”
 
Leicester still have Chelsea and Southampton to play. You'd expect them to get 3 points out of those now they're out of Europe.

No one is going to defend that or the dross that's been served up over the last few months It's where you apportion the blame and what to do about it It's too simplistic to heap all the shit on lage

Sorry about the numbers of replies Fingers were trembling after watching the game
 
Justified, might sound odd but I went for a shower as was trying to reset my brain/weekend and not spiral off into negatively. Its mostly worked.
 
So now we have a manager who has almost zero knowledge of transfers relying on Jeff Shi and Scott F Sellars to oversee a complete rebuild with minimal investment. We a ‘Cardiff in waiting’ for sure.
 
Barcelona are reportedly still pushing to sign Ruben Neves. It's said that due to Mendes' good relations with Wolves and Barça, a deal could be done.

There are also a number of Barcelona players interested in joining Wolves. Abde Ezzalzouli, Nico Gonzalez, Alejandro Balde, Riqui Puig and Óscar Mingueza could all be on the table.

Dunno if this site is bollocks or not. I'd rather Ruben went there than a Premier league club.
On the obligatory youtube clips, Nicole Gonzalez looks a good young prospect. What do the guys who watch a lot of Spanish football think?
 
I'm going against the grain a little here, but I'm not sure such a severe rebuild is required. (as in the talk of getting rid of around 8-10 players)

The players clearly don't want to play for Lage anymore, a new manager would change that - you'd hope.

So whilst Hwang, Boly and Saiss aren't good enough and need replacing, i think we may well see an upturn in form of players like Raul, Jonny and RAN if we had a manager they liked and respected and that used them in the "right" way.

Depends what the club wants doesn't it?

Back to conservative football that the players thrive under or do they push through a turbulent change and revitalise the squad to go in a different direction.

Option A is undoubtedly easier and cheaper.

Absolutely we don't need a full on rebuild, that's highly dangerous imo. Unfortunately we appear to be about to jettison most of the spine of our team. I'm hoping the rumours are way out.

I can't see much else happening tbh, either way. Marcal is off, Ruddy is off, Saiss is off, Boly is done, Neves is off, Moutinho is possibly off (I hope we keep him if Neves is going), We're apparently willing to listen to reasonable offers for Raul, Podence is actively looking to go, and possibly Jonny too, as well as Trincao being sent back to Barca. That's a significant number, and there remain question marks against a significant number of others - Hoever, Coady for example. One issue with a smaller squad, means the rebuild is more significant when needed. This is a risk of not evolving over the past 3 years.

When has a massive rebuild where you replace most of your starters all in one go ever worked?

Even if there are a few examples there won't be many and I definitely don't think Wolves have got good enough people in recruitment to make a success of it.
