Summer 2024 transfer window thread.

[Wignall 3-0]

Last season our football was dire and we did not score goals. This season we have played entertaining football and scored goals making for good telly viewing. I think more neutral fans have been tuning in knowing they will see an entertaining game. So have we been involved in more live games this season or nothing in it from last?

 

[Jd132]

I think Gary is looking for blistering pace in his attack which is why, out of all the names we've heard so far, Mohamed Amoura and Samu Omorodion stand out.

It's clearly one of the reasons why Sasa and Fabio were loaned out and, in my opinion, will be the reason Sarabia will be shown the door in the Summer too.

 

[Axle]

Another thing that we are on the wrong end of.

Wolves not as fashionable as the ‘academy of football’ even with all of their over hype

To be fair we were ****ing awful to watch last season!!!!

I recon we will be on more next season because of the fact we have been scoring goals this campaign

 

[JOSWolf]

For me any attackers we sign now have to have pace with the way ONeil sets us up. Midfielders have to be dynamic like we have now and we certainly need more pace in the centre back area. Mosquera will hopefully come back and solve part of the problem in defence but I'd argue we need another quick centre back on top of him as Dawson wont feature regularly next season.

Pacy forwards and defenders means we can change the dynamic for the better

Just watched siva get subbed off for rangers after 55 minutes...no way is anyone paying good money for him. He's absolute dog ****e. Christ,they saw us coming when we bought him.

Urm well let’s hope the Saudis like his hairstyle

 

[hollo]

Does tv appearance money count in that ?
Beat to it by @arctic rime

Yes they are called facility fees.

 

[wwbug]

Upgrade on Doherty , Fraser , cover for Dawson and all change on goalkeepers . That would be fine if no leavers .

 

[WW1963]

Two strikers - quick with fine hamstrings - one a guaranteed starter and the other as cover for when Hwang or Cunha is injured.

One goalkeeper - experienced, commands area, good distribution and not given to moments of silliness.

One quality centre back - experienced, big gob, reader of trouble, great in the air.

Keep Jao Gomes and RAN.

Anything else is a bonus but we're talking £100m for those four players, which means selling Neto for £45m, Sa to the Saudis for £25m, £35m for some of our loan players (Guedes, Podence, Silva).

£5m profit.

They can prioritize at a high fee. Let’s talk 50 million.

40m/50m get him gone we got Mosquera ready to fill the void. Daylight robbery for our captain. United could potentially get the next Steve Bruce here

 

[WolvesAndCows]

I think United just want a defender that is fit every week, which Max is. They can't rely on Varane and Martinez.

A left footed, English centre back? If we can get anything north of 40 million for him then we have robbed them blind. If we get 50 then I would be laughing all the way to the bank when I am depositing it in the Wolves E sports account

Why the **** would we sell pedro neto for £45m?

We could pull their pants down here. Big opportunity

 

[WickedWolfie]

So if we do the following:

1. Sell two top players (Air-Nouri and Neto) for £100m
2. Sell players out on loan not required (Guedes, Silva, Podence, Hoever, Cundle, Bolla, Hodge) for c£30m
3. Have a kitty of say £50m

and our squad looks like this
GK: Sa, Bentley, Moulden
FB: Semedo, Bueno, Doherty, Lembiska,
CB: Dawson, Kilman, Bueno, Gomes, Mosquera,
MD: Gomes, Lemina, Doyle, Traore, Bellegarde
A/WM: Sarabia, Chiquinho, Gonzales, Chirewa, Lemina
FWD: Cunha, Hwang, Fraser, Chiwome

Where would you spend the cash a who would be the priority. For me Attacking/Wide Midfield and Centre Forward looks this lightest.

If l take your figures at face value bringing in £130M and only spending £50M of it suggests yet further squad quality downgrading. That way lies a Mick-style team and relegation.

Exactly we need to replace quality with quality. We are self sufficient so no reason why we can’t spend 70% of whatever we make in essence. More downgrading will make next season more precarious

 

[Hanbury_Wolf]

Why the **** would we sell pedro neto for £45m?

Because he gets injured a lot. We have the least squad depth in the league. A bigger, more resourced club may be able to manage that risk a little better

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

Why the **** would we sell pedro neto for £45m?

He will go for more

 

[JamesWolves]

Why the **** would we sell pedro neto for £45m?

Hamstrings made of paper and a injury list thats catching up with Jota's. Cant see us getting more than 50m tbh

 

[Wolf316]

Sell Max and Neto keep RAN and Gomes

 

[Northampton_wolf]

Sell Max and Neto keep RAN and Gomes

probably the best way. we can replace Neto somewhat and mosquera could replace kilman

 

[oldgoldheart]

Why the **** would we sell pedro neto for £45m?

I would be amazed if we get more than £30m. His injury record is dire and no one has any money

 

[Axle]

I don’t get the clamour to sell Kilman.

Skipper, home grown, left sided, English centre back who is a success story of our development of young players.

Who exactly are we going to replace him with?

I see a lot of people saying sell him, but not a lot saying who he should replaced with.

Crazy. Kilman is this season’s Hwang, who was last season’s Semedo etc etc

 

[Aurum Lupus]

I would be amazed if we get more than £30m. His injury record is dire and no one has any money

Not a chance we let him go for that, unless there's a player coming the other way on top

I’d personally keep Kilman. Think he is under-rated on here and from what I’ve been told, is a very well-liked and respected Captain.

But if he did leave, two good, left-sided and likely to be available English centre-backs are Jacob Greaves at Hull and Lloyd Kelly at Bournemouth.

 

[el gringo]

Would Antoine Semenyo be a good acquisition? (No rumour or ITK here, just a thought). He went to Bournemouth when GON was there, so maybe the type of player he might be interested in. Doesn't score a ton of goals (but not bad), but he's strong, and can run at defences.

 

[GuzzWolf]

Personally, I'd keep the the following.
Balti Pie
Buffalo wings
Chicken wraps

Transfer
**** pies
**** Burgers
**** chips

It's a win win

 

[Houston Lobo]

Interesting given the mention of Lloyd Kelly on here the other day.

Maybe he’d be tempted coming here as a guaranteed starter rather than risk reduced minutes elsewhere at Tottenham or Newcastle.

 

[Wolves Heathen]

This is the reason Neto may go for a knockdown price.

 

[Premier Quality]

I think its probably best if you find a new sport to watch.

Would be a great signing IMO, however was stretchered off yesterday… could be out for a while?

Because it’s better for PSR and I’d rather keep Ait Nouri and Gomes.

We can only sell if we get acceptable offers. Let’s see what July brings for us

I like Kilman too but we need to sell somebody for a big fee in the summer and he’s the best for PSR and we will have Toti, Dawson and possibly Mosquera so will probably need 1 other in.

I don’t want to sell Max but if you gave me a choice of keeping him or RAN then it’s an easy decision - of course the players’ desire to leave/stay will be a factor.
