The January 2025 Transfer Thread

Last time we were in this mess part of how we survived was guys like Neves who still cared about the club dragging us to safety. That Midweek game against Palace where he scored a penalty, you could see how much it meant to him. Coady might not be perfect, he wasn't even when he was at his best for us, but one thing you can guarantee is that he loves the club and will give everything to keep us up.

He'd suit the formation as well, stick him in the middle where he doesn't have to defend large spaces with 2 of Agba, Toti or Djiga next to him and he should be fine.

He's only 31 as well so should have a few more years in him. Dawson is done. I wouldn't want him in the Championship now.

Yeah I agree and would be good to have him around the squad in pre season if we stayed up.

Oh absolutely. I should have included a disclaimer that I’ve formed an opinion from 30 minutes extensive research while necking a coffee this morning. I did have a laugh at his YouTube highlights though. About 20 clips in a row of people passing the ball in to him.

We might have found an absolute gem & he may be unbelievable, but a relatively unknown 28 year old with a few caps for Zimbabwe, you’ll have to forgive my cynicism.

My personal opinion is we’ve missed out on all our key targets (surprise surprise) and are now getting a few bodies in through the door to appease Vitor & the fans.

It feels like the Eggy signing.

I haven’t called you racist now have I.

Just like me getting too excited about Nelson’s smile or Emmanuel’s style, perfectly well-intentioned comments can still carry needless stereotypes or otherwise fit macro patterns that are harmful.

No you hinted, and thats enough to really piss me off

I just kicked someone out my bar and told him never to come back.
It was someone i considered a friend, it has cost me a fair few quid as he was a good customer, and he has also caused the bar a lot of shit on Social media so bad the only way I stopped it was threatening him with the Police, He is on a 2 year suspended sentence.

All this because I objected to his racist comments, and this guy has Black Son in Laws.

I think Coady in the middle with Agbadoo, and Dijga either side would be perfect, With Toti and Bueno has back ups
 
If the Dawson-Coady swap should become a reality, it's a win-win in so many ways.

It's clear Dawson doesn't have much of a role here any more but this would allow him to leave with his head held high, knowing what a great job he did for us last year in particular and to leave with the thanks of the fans while it's still fresh in our memories rather than becoming a forgotten bit-part player and having his important contribution minimised by nothing other than time moving on..

I'm not beginning to hope yet, because it's the hope that gets you down. In my time supporting Wolves I've only seen one captain as good as Coady and that was Mike Bailey. Coady is still young enough to have a contribution to make.

THis would be a massive step forward, amongst other things, in giving the younger players a role model. Please make it happen.
 
Come back Coads. If he signs I've got 10 Coady cards that are going straight to PSA tomorrow,.
 
A Dawson/Coady swap feels like it should be one the easiest deals in history to do if there's any truth to it.

We might even manage to sort it out without Uncle Jorge holding our hand

Quite important that we get him out I think actually given that he’s completely given up

Things derailed/unravelled very quickly with Mario. He was playing poorly, his attitude wasn't great during games and I think stripping him of the captaincy was essentially bomb squading him. There was absolutely no return from that.

I must be a bit weird, because rather than the excitement that you lot have I'm just sat here wondering what the fuck. Is it just a short term move to have him in the middle of Agbadou and Djigger? Or just to cheer the dressing room up a bit? Can't we just buy good footballers?

I simultaneously can feel my heart exploding at the idea of this, but also like you, my head is thinking "what the fucking fuck, really!?"
 
2.5mill for Lemina seems crap to me, but alternatively, I guess we are lucky to get anything
 
I know GON is already toast, but he shares a small portion of blame for Mario's fall from grace imo. The flaws were always there though if you look at his history. Shame he soiled his time here
