Summer 2023 Transfer Window Thread

[so-called fan]

Who might well think "No thanks, they're Championship bound".

Why might they think that? There will be players in other leagues willing to come here to play in struggling PL clubs, and I think we're going to be struggling rather less than a few other clubs.

 

[WolfInSheep'sClothing]

He is fantastic but he's also 31 now and his contract expires in 2025, if you're talking value then now is the best time to sell him and for that offer I don't see how you can turn it down.

It is an absolutely insane amount of money for a 31 year old but i'm still not sure what they can do with it when they get it. I'm on the fence on this one.

 

[tonto]

Let me know when we sign a goal scorer we can have a party in West Park

 

[Timberrrr]

That's 2 players on loan now.one bought for 27 million, the other for 17mill.what a waste of money
Just saying

Lopetegui agreed Wolves pay-off reduction on £8m salary as part of £145m summer cuts

Exclusive: Wolves now in a better financial position following mass summer clearout of 17 players

A pair of very simple questions:

1. Did Shi not understand the club's financial position when he offered JL and his entourage three year contracts on big bucks last November (and what does that say about his competence) or was he always planning this (and what does that say about his honesty)?

2. If neither what exactly changed in six months?

What sort of journalist doesn't raise those blindingly obvious issues?

As it is methinks Percy needs this:

Considering a contract offer to Jesse Lingard according to Sky.

West Ham also keen, Lingard to make a future in coming days.

So who will be the January striker? Back in for Boulaye Dia (after apology), surely someone better than Adams? Is anyone brave enough to start a January Transfer Window Thread - @SuperGran , take one for the team?

I dread to think what my tagline would be if I did that

 

[Oldgold Wolfcub]

Not players but I have just seen that Robert Dyas are selling portable fans at half price.

 

[OLDGOLD]

It's interesting. We send him on loan, but also lengthen his contract. I see what's in it for the club, and also to a degree for Daniel re wages, but its a strange message. Almost like the people currently picking the Wolves team don't fancy him, but give it a year....

We currently have an equivalent of Lambert.... I really hope that the new Nuno follows....

Can we tie a few to Shi and point him at Asia?

He won some cup or other one time, didn't you know?

Interest from West Ham, Wolves in Lingard​

Jesse Lingard is edging closer to a resolution over his future with West Ham and Wolves both interested.
The 30-year-old midfielder is a free agent after leaving Nottingham Forest at the end of last season.
Lingard has been training with West Ham all summer and will play in a behind-closed-doors friendly this week.
However, Wolves are now showing interest and could make an offer in the coming days.

Utterly gash at Trees last season

Are we thinking about him as a replacement for Sarabia, if he goes to Saudi?

 

[SuperGran]

Did ok at West Ham but crap at Forest

 

[WeAreTheWolvesII]

Are we thinking about him as a replacement for Sarabia, if he goes to Saudi?

Is there talk of Sarabia going to Saudi?

I'd love Sarabia to leave, as he's awful. Unfortunately, so is Lingard.

Edit: Have seen on the other thread.

 

[SuperGran]

Go on, go for it.

Done

Yep.

One whose article is ghost written by Matt Hobbs

 

[Bacon Sandwich]

Every time I come on the Mix it gets worse. Yesterday a coach who'd failed at FGR. Today Lingard.
Fully expect to read the Mix tomorrow and see that Chakreverty is back as head of medical

If this is not a PR piece I don't know what is .

"Necessary sales " Oh really? I thought the FFP narrative had been debunked long time ago.

"Mood of positivt under O'Neil ". Yes the players are obviously beaming with delight and positivity in their play..

"Fear Lopeteguis frustrations could derail the season.."

We've lost 3 of the 4 first games with serious questions being asked about style of play and O'Neils ability by a growing number of fans. There's also a good chance we'll get less than 3 points in the next 5-6 games.

How could the season be any more on course to be completely derailed even if Lopetegui had stayed?

And no I'm not advocating that all would be better with Lopetegui. I'm attaching the completely biased view that all is better with O'Neil.

It's probably as well that Dr Shipman died. He'd have been a shoe-in....

That had seriously occurred to me after Bournemouth upgrade....

It's embarrassing from someone like Percy.

I have sympathy for Keen as he works for the local paper and needs to keep them onside. Slating the club will not benefit his paper, so he has to be wary.

It's a different story entirely with Percy - and he has put out that.

Sold his credibility.

After the exclusive when Fosun sell the club

Oh come on, we need one now, there's Percy telling us we're going to line up a striker, an actual living breathing striker, we need somewhere to discuss who that could be, it would seem rude for anyone else to start the thread, @Mutchy won't mind.

Like everyone else on here I don't know the full story of what happened this summer. But slating the Percy story because it doesn't fit the mix narrative seems unfair. Maybe his story is more accurate than the fans think? I don't know but he is one of the most reliable journalists.

£100,000 a week would top up his pension fund, while offering **** all

I'm not necessarily saying that his story is inaccurate. I am questioning why he apparently didn't ask blindingly obvious questions and publish the answers.

It’s going to be many years before you can post your puzzle scores again…
