Welcome to Wolves Rui Patricio

[Derby Wolf]

He won't make many saves like that for Wolves. The ball wouldn't have got past Willy Boly.

 

[Jack Regan]

Just seen the save and it's a good one, the sort of save you'd expect a guy with 70 international caps to make.

 

[YoungWolf]

Why do you have to go and remind me of that Derby game. Doherty and Borthwick-Jackson as inverted full backs, AGGH

Teixeira in central midfield.

Glory days.

Edwards really annoyed me with that actually. Played him in a role that clearly didn’t suit him (not in our shit team anyway), and made him the fall guy when he took him off

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I messaged Kenny walking up to the ground (early kick off so no pub), saying "must be trying Tex at #10 then".

Nope.

 

[The Bear]

Hopefully we can look back in a few years and say "Do you remember when we had Douglas and Doherty as our wing-backs? And Bennett at CB!"

 

[YoungWolf]

Could be saying that in a couple of months to be fair!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

As I've posted on Twitter, this was our defending for Derby's second goal.

All of our back four are in that picture.

How we are set up defies explanation.

 

[darlowolf64]

6 Derby players in shot, EVERY ONE of our players in shot and Bent still has the freedom of the penalty area

It was a good save by Rui, but he could have held it...

OT, but Seaman's was better than both...

Can’t disagree with Seamans being the better of the bunch however Banks’ save against Brazil was better

Rui's Instagram message translated by Google

Dear Sportinguists

After many noises and events that Sporting Clube de Portugal and Eu, we were recently targeted, I went back to the silence... not for lack of feeling, nor for lack of valid arguments, but for respect to Sporting Clube de Portugal and its supporters.

At this moment, there is already room for me to say, in brief lines, what I feel and why my reserved attitude.

I have supported and experienced many less positive situations in order to represent my club, always giving my best and being sovereign, my desire to honour the jersey I wore since I was 12 years old, as well as transmit these values ​​to all my colleagues, while one of the captains and one of the players with more years of home of this team, who always proud of me and will continue to be proud of his genuine strength and determination!

But I am also a human being...of flesh and blood, just like all of you, and so I had to make a decision.

The reasons that led me to leave are now known by all of you...

They are public knowledge... the causes described in my termination.

I have never failed to respect anyone and I will never do it, because my silence to this day was exclusively out of respect for everyone!

At the time of my termination, my continuity had become untenable because it compromised my professional productivity before my Club, and for that reason, I would never be able to exercise my professional activity in Sporting.

This was my home for 18 years, yes my house!

I spent more time at Sporting than at my parents' house...

In addition to my parents... Yes, it was Sporting that formed me and transformed me into what I am today, not only as a Sportinguista, but also as a professional and a human being. It was without doubt a house that created me at all these levels!

It would be impossible for me to turn back or harm this great Family.

So I respect and I will always respect all the opinions on the part of the fans, thanking all the support that they have given me throughout all these years and I will continue to follow closely and with the heart this my Great Club.

After all these years, this was not the way I thought of saying goodbye to my club and all of you, but I hope you will keep with you what I feel!!!

That I am and always will be a Lion!!

 

[darlowolf64]

Classy

 

[Pablowolf]

I'm disappointed he didn't drop a 'Wolves aye we' in at the end.

Sporting still acting the goat.

Think their case might kind of fall down on the fact that we offered them €18m, they essentially accepted it and then decided to pull out after they didn't like paying what they owe to Mendes.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Good luck with that Sporting.

why are agent fees so ridiculous these days?
