Welcome to Wolves Willy Boly

Hello, I am a Porto fan and I sign up here to give you my opinion and analyze Rúben Neves, Boly and Nuno Espírito Santo.
Sorry for my english.
My analysis about Boly.
Boly has not played a lot in Porto this year but not because he is a bad player. Porto central defenders this year were amazing Felipe and Marcano played their best football this season, (Felipe was connected to Real Madrid and Marcano to Sevilla) and none of them suffered injuries so Boly only played when one of them were punished and the only game Boly played without one of them being punished was a game that Porto tied with Tondela and he never got that opportunity again ( Ruben also played that game instead of Danilo). About Boly I can say he is a very physical guy so I think he can fit well in the Championship, he also has good feets he knows to pass the ball however sometimes he abuses and makes mistakes, he is also very good on the marking. My concerns are: sometimes he deconcentrates and lets oneself anticipate and sometimes he risks to much in dangerous zones.
Compared to Mangala that also played in Porto I would say he is not so fast, and Mangala is better in offensive head plays, Boly maybe have more technique, but in general Mangala is a better player than Boly.
In my opinion you have a good central defender and there are good chances that you buy it on the end of the loan.
That was my analysis to Boly, i have already made one to Ruben Neves and next i will do one to Nuno Espírito Santo. I hope you like it...

Thanks for that, Goncalo. I think we'll always welcome more analysis like this!

Your English is very good, as well.
 
There was a moment in the first half where he had a 50/50 with a boro player - their player looked up at Boly and just went ‘nah, you have it’ :)

Elokobi but more athletic.. :)
 
"If you've got a Big Willy clap your hands"
 
Indeed. Very comfortable on the ball too
 
meant in a massive way
 
He’s not massive in an overly muscled big George way
 
i know that..big g could compete in mr olympia...just dont wanna try to dribble him 1 on 1
 
He looks like someone took George and stretched him 6 inches taller.
 
Nope, as Booz says, $#@! all like Elokobi.
He's not exactly bulging like Big George but no one is going to see him and think he's not capable of snapping you in half.
 
If I could be assed this could turn into a debate about stereotyping players :)

Oof. Too right. I'm withdrawing.

Suffice to say Willy won't likely lose many arm wrestling contests.
