Oh God, yes please

 

[Langers]

Let's hope we can get that deal done - a very good young player who appears to have a decent attitude (going by what he's said in the media) who won't break the bank who plays in a position we need to strengthen being signed early in the window.

Ticks all the boxes for me.

Ah, I love the post-ITK tweet, pre-signing excitement. Followed by the delay, anxiety and name calling due to the ineviatable delay in official news; concluded with ultimate devastation or relief and a sense of entitlement depending on whether the signing happens or not.

 

[Wolvensam]

He seems to be a very grounded young lad: http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11674/8581455/pompey-sensation

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

And

"Moxey and Morgan no ambition" if he signs elsewhere, plus

"Moxey and Morgan overpaying for a division 2 nobody" if he joins us.

For me, he looks a cracking signing. Looks like we want to get some early business done. Hopefully it points toward a reasonably active summer.

 

[YoungWolf]

Good stuff, hopefully we get the deal done. A good attitude with good technical ability and a football brain. yes please.

 

[Nando]

We're in talks with Kuszczak over a new deal.

I'd imagine if he stays that Flatt will be off on loan again, McCarey is likely to be binned and Burgoyne will be No.1 for the u21's.

There's a cracking article on the OS regarding the young keepers at the club, it seems like we've got another good crop!

 

[SouthWestWolf]

Jed Wallace would be a cracking signing, looks like he can find the net and now it looks like we've finally got a natural penalty taker to replace Griffiths.

 

[Norman Deeley]

Twitter reports first sighting of Jed Wallace at the training ground...

 

[Lord Knows]

Good stuff, hopefully we get the deal done. A good attitude with good technical ability and a football brain. yes please.

Those are the usual requirements for me, I would hope Wolves sign good passers of the ball this summer.

 

[Premier Quality]

goals from midfield are badly needed, would be very happy with this one.

I couldn't see one, but if there is let me know and I'll merge.

Oh, it's here.

Yes, I'm fully prepared now for days of bellyaching about "why hasn't he signed yet? There must be a hitch" despite our medicals quite obviously taking a few days to complete, based on pretty much every player we have signed over the last two years, and it being the middle of May.

[SouthWestWolf]

When does the window officially open so that we can actually officially confirm?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

June 1st I think but you can sign players whenever you want, you just can't register them to play until the window opens.

 

[Wolfos]

We are allowed to announce a legally binding transfer agreement 365 days a year. We will just have to wait to register him as our player until a window opens, this coming one opening in mid-June or so. With both teams' seasons over, there are no real reasons why either side would wish to delay. Of course our medicals are pretty rigorous, so personally I can't see anything confirmed this week in any case.

I guess that thread is "who would we like" and this one is for confirmed (assumed) real bids... No problem with having a "this is actually happening" thread
