I’ve got a sneaky suspicion he’ll go back to Barca on a free.
Not so sure it is him. Didn't he have a relative as his agent, until he signed for Mendez? I think he was poorly advised about his worth and prospects. I am sure he is getting better direction now, but the damage has been done, as far as his value to Wolves is concerned.

The longer they leave it, the cheaper he gets. Maybe someone will make a cheeky offer next week, but my gut feel is they will leave it till January, one he has played a couple of games. I think he will get some time on the pitch for us. 5 subs, two games a week, and he will want to impress.If he's willing to wait and take a drop in wages he might but i dont think they want him. They had the money for a wide player and they spent it elsewhere after their try before you buy deal they took him on last time. I'm still astounded that nobody has made an offer for him. I genuinely think 8 to 10 million would secure him yet still nothing.
I think we threw away our season last year when we let him set sail.In my view, the Adama ship sailed a long time ago. If he stays past this window it’s because an acceptable offer didn’t come in.
Everyone should bury the hatchet and get a new contract done, in terms of squad and ambition, things have changed since this saga started…
Sign on for for another couple of years Adama, you never know, we might actually win something with this team.
Serious question - with all the extra subs this year, can we actually 'fit' them all on our bench?In reality, he's not even good enough to start for us anymore. Between him and Podence on the bench I'd rather see Podence come on.
His form definitely dipped after the Euro’s and the longer the contract saga went on.In reality, he's not even good enough to start for us anymore. Between him and Podence on the bench I'd rather see Podence come on.

I hope we move him on to be honest. Not sure he looked ***** when he came on last game.
We had all of them bar Kilman available against Brighton when we were beaten 3-0. Palace we were missing Semedo only. I think traore would have made a huge difference that game as we couldn't get out of our own half.Him leaving had very little impact really. Losing Neves, Semedo and Kilman had a way bigger impact on us than losing Traore.

I dont agree at all. You could pick games where we got beaten easily when Adama was here. I've been saying it for a long time now with him, if he was the player some people on here think he is, we would have had a plethora of good sides banging our door down to sign him up for what they could get him for now. Why arent they?
I don’t see why you wouldn’t keep him. What’s £10m going to do for us?
If he left as well as MGW then we’d probably be one short on attacking options.
He has to play well to secure his next move and we can use him from the bench.
There’s still no one in the squad with his style, he can be very useful.
10 million is next to nothing really for a top club to take a risk on though, especially with the 5 sub rules. As i said before, i'm astounded somebody hasn't gone for him at that kind of price. He is still a very useful impact sub and i think he will be for us as well. He could easily fill that role at a lot of clubs.Because he's never fully fulfilled his potential, so I don't think any club is willing to pay a fee for him. He's still seen as a risk, especially for the bigger clubs.
I do think that there will be quite a few clubs, perhaps even some very big clubs, that will be happy to take that risk on him signing for no transfer fee.
He probably knows that his best chance of a big contract somewhere comes from moving on a free transfer.
I seem to remember the same argument in January then both Spurs and Barca came in for him. Guess we'll see.I dont agree at all. You could pick games where we got beaten easily when Adama was here.

If his head was back in the right place and he got his confidence back, we all know what a nightmare for defenders he is.

If he’s happy with that role as squad man and impact sub then absolutely.I don’t see why you wouldn’t keep him. What’s £10m going to do for us?

I would say he has to be. He can't expect us to have him as the main man knowing he's leaving.If he’s happy with that role as squad man and impact sub then absolutely.
Nobody is going to offer what he offers though. He is one of the best if not the best in the world at beating players. Chiquinho looks a more well rounded player but I don't see him or anyone else for that matter offering the same sort of threat Adama does.I would say he has to be.

This should work out for us quite well this season IMO, then hopefully Chiquinho is ready to offer similar qualities to the squad next season.
Oh yeah agree, that's why I'd much rather keep him than sell him for £10m.Nobody is going to offer what he offers though. He is one of the best if not the best in the world at beating players. Chiquinho looks a more well rounded player but I don't see him or anyone else for that matter offering the same sort of threat Adama does.
I don't understand what that's based on though?Still our biggest (only?) threat against the top sides. Keep.
