The Incoming Transfers Everywhere Thread: Summer 2023

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

I've said it before but if he is going to walk then the sooner he does it the better. Either he wants to be here or he doesn't.

Hopefully, it's just a tactic to get Fosun to stop dicking him (and the rest of us) around.

 

[YoungWolf]

here it is anyway.

20 days until the season starts and the only new additions are Doherty and 3rd choice keeper.
JL doesn’t need to tell us it’s the not a great situation we can all see it.
Sounds like he’d have no problems with been given the boot for undermining.

 

[YoungWolf]

Awful sound quality

 

[Alan]

Shockingly unprofessional production.

 

[Alan]

Ballague is clearly trying to lead him into a critical soundbite.

"Isn't it awful that any incomings won't be able to learn from you during a preseason?"

Fuck off. Julen doesn't seem to have taken the bait so far.

 

[BGreenWolf]

There's no doubts that the situation's not even close to what Lopetegui was originally sold, but we already went through all of this earlier on in the summer. Extremely unprofessional to keep feeding his pet journo tidbits about how terrible it all is for him by this point.

 

[AndyWolves]

Bookies were right about JL being the favourite to be first to go

 

[Wolvensam]

He won’t be going anywhere. It’s just pure click bait and JL hasn’t said anything untoward so far.

2/1 favourite.

Balague is trying his best to bait Julen in to saying something controversial here, but he's not taking it at the moment. Clearly he's not happy, but he's pretty much going around in circles.

Balague: "I know you will have been very angry, very upset"

Lop: Sits with a blank face

Rinse, repeat.

I highly, highly doubt this will go down well with Shi & Co, though. I guess the ball is in their court now.

 

[YoungWolf]

It feels like not only did they move the goalposts in May, they have also not committed to the 'plan' they then agreed on..

Yeah. As I said, just all feels a bit click bait-y to me - and once again, Wolves social media goes into meltdown (not that it takes much). It’s all just becoming a bit infuriating at this point.

 

[Alan]

Ayyyy they fixed Julen's mic finally

 

[Sniffer]

Anything of interest yet? I gave up after 2 minutes.

 

[Jinky]

Nah. Repeating himself a lot.

He hasn't said anything we don't already know.

 

[Wolftone]

No. Boring, like his football.

That's what he seems to be saying to me..... so 'Plan B' has now also been taken away...

 

[Wilf Wolf]

With the dithering over Scott, weak links to Retegui when he’d already agreed to go Genoa, signing Doherty on a three year deal, you can see how from outside it looks like they’re not too bothered if Lop walks. I still think he’ll be here and have three or four decent additions within a fortnight but a few doubts are creeping in.

 

[Wolvensam]

He isn’t saying anything we hadn’t heard back in May: wasn’t aware of this situation when he joined at Christmas, isn’t a financial advisor, not an ideal scenario but he’s ploughing on.
