Welcome to Wolves Matheus Cunha

[prawnking]

fuck him off for as much as we can get.

I reckon we might get up to £62.5m for him

Nah, there'll be a bidding war

 

[Haggstone]

Part of me thinks, maybe he will stay because who wouldn’t want to play in front of that midfield of ours, at least for a season? But in reality, it’s probably best we take the £62.5m and pop that with the money saved in wages here and elsewhere and build on what we have. As we have seen second half of the season, we ain’t that far off being a very decent side again. We have the nucleus of one anyway.

 

[From Distant Shores]

You're absolutely right. There will be a bidding war .... for Cunha's wages.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

When is the fans player of the season voting?

With recency bias, the shift against Cunha and the (slim) chance he doesn't immediately get back in the team.

I wonder if J. Gomes or Andre might sneak ahead of Cunha to get it?

Imagine the meltdown from Cunha!

 

[Kenny]

Everything crossed Doc wins it

 

[Del Woppio]

Anybody that doesn't vote for Cunha should have their season ticket revoked

 

[Tony Towner]

We all know recency bias on these things, but player of the season - not since February, can only be J Gomes or Cunha

Depends what you base your vote on, quality/output or whether it's your favourite.

 

[Deano]

I don't really mind if he plays Cunha or not. If he doesn't want to be here next season and he wants to go then I get it if the manager wants to use players that will be here, on the other hand we may have more chance of winning. I say may because id never have thought we'd get 3 wins in a draw during the 4 games of his absence (despite the poor opposition in some of those.)

Without the suspension he'd have obviously stayed in the team but now I think there's definitely a decision there and as I've said previously I'd like to see more of a couple of others in the run in too ahead of pre season and next seaaon.

Thing is, it’s likely he’s going.

If he doesn’t play him, then really he needs
To do the same with other players that won’t be here. The issue is though Cunha has a contract. If you don’t play semedo, etc as they’re out of contract, it doesn’t matter.
Don’t play Cunha then he’ll be disruptive and we won’t get 62.5m for him.

I’d play him, firstly because we are stronger with him in, and secondly we’ve been discussing there may not be a market for him, if that situation materialises and he stays, then refusing to play him because he ‘likely’ won’t be here is counter productive.

Non starter of an argument for me personally

I don't believe this for a moment. If you think he's worth that now, then not playing in half a dozen end of season dead rubbers isn't going to change your view.

There will be a market, whether he plays every game or none, just not necessarily the one he envisages

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I'd be more on board with not playing him if we had viable alternatives who might offer something next season and/or we don't know enough about at this stage.

As it is, it means Guedes or Hwang would get more minutes. You see my problem here.

(I don't feel right putting Hwang in the same bracket as that faceache fucking prick, I never want either to start or come on but there is a difference)

Depends on what he’s discussed with the club. But if you refuse to play him because he’s likely growing, you think he’ll sit there quietly and be like ‘fair enough guys, I understand your view, il wait for a bid of 62.5m and we will shake hands’?

You don’t play him, he is likely to kick up a fuss, and then potential suitors will come in lower. Yes, we have a release clause but if he actively says we’ll
You’ve dropped me, im not playing for you, the the release
Clause won’t necessarily be met.


This is all moot of course, as we aren’t dropping him for rest of season. BUT if we did, we could get less potentially is my point

What if there's essentially already a deal lined up with whoever it was seemed to turn his head in January? They might be glad of his lack of minutes and he might be happy to put his feet up reducing injury risk ahead of his big move move.

They’re all what ifs, aren’t they.

I’m just speculating if you have an unhappy player, you don’t go in at ‘asking price’ do you.

It’s just a daft conversation to say ‘yeah we’re not playing you’

It's not daft if he doesn't want to play.

Ok, so we’ve gone from us dropping him because he may be going, to now him not wanting to play?

Goalposts ripped up and moved
