Diogo Jota

[reanswolf]

"If" true, I wouldn't blame him, Liverpool are a top club but I doubt he will see much game time there.
£30-£40m return seems fair. And seeing how some Wolves fans feel about him, you wouldn't blame him.
As we said earlier, its all part of the way it works, players will come here if they feel they can progress to a bigger club should the opportunity arise. I have my doubts its true as Liverpool seem wary of spending, unless some sort of exchange is part of this.

Now reported on Sky.

 

[Fifty Niner]

sounds like jota wants to go

Like Doherty, who saw Spurs as a ‘step up’.

 

[The Wolf In The North]

**** off. **** right off.

One of a mere handful of players we should be moving heaven and hell to keep.

This is ****ing stupid and miserable if true.

He will tear this league to shreds with Liverpool.

****.

 

[Andy]

Well don't you look a little bit silly now. Muppet.

Back on thread, gutted if Jota leaves. I did always have concerns of one forward leaving with the signings of Silva and Vitinha.

not really, I stand by it.

You started a thread on a feeling, no evidence, loads of that **** on here. Most likely scenario at the time was not a transfer. Even a blind Squirrel finds an acorn now and then.

Embarrassing thread when posted. But well done on your shallow feeling of vindication, muppet.

The fact that some Wolves fans don't see how valuable Jota is to us is astonishing. Actually, it's not actually surprising. A lot of football fans look at 'goals and assists' and use that as a basis for their input.

Regardless of his dry patches on the scoresheet (and a handful of poor games - how dare the 23 year old do that), the intelligence he has off the ball is ****ing astounding, and when he's in the XI it shows. He is a game changing player, he has super human strength and balance which cant be taught, confident with both feet, the list goes on. He could be one of the best players in Europe within 3 seasons. I'll be so ****ed off if he goes, because I want to witness it happen whilst he's in a Wolves shirt.

Couldn’t agree more and after Raul we have no-one who comes close to his scoring record anyway.

 

[Superted]

I'd be disappointed if he went but I could live with it as long as it's a decent fee.

I do not want to be doing the clubs we're looking to catch any favours.

I still think Vinagre could play in Diogo's position.

 

[goldeneyed]

Yeah anything between 25 and 30 mill or else we have been robbed again

**** me you would find £25m ish acceptable!Madness. Jota is a £50m player.

 

[Irish_Wolf]

If the money is right and we have an equal replacement then I'd happily sell Jota as he is so inconsistent.

But we better not be replacing him with someone's 18 year old player who has little or no first team experience.

 

[sedgwolf1980]

Ox coming this way in return?

 

[Andy]

I'd be gutted if this actually were to happen, but trust the club.

 

[rg4352]

If it’s true that Jota is forcing the move, then he can go. I don’t know why he’d force a move somewhere to sit on another bench myself

Vinagre has trouble playing in his own position let alone anyone else’s.

To win a trophy.

 

[Chode]

If this funds the purchase of Dias or similar, then maybe this would be ok. Generally angry though if there is no plan to significantly upgrade the squad with the money.

 

[Mighty Thor]

Where is this 35m would be fair coming from? We just spent 35M on a kid who made 1 start in a tin pot league who last night looked like he won a competition to play professional football. Jota is a proven premier league and European goal scorer who is super young still.

 

[Cookyssweetleftfoot]

Podence, Jota, Neto, Traore, Fabio, Jimenez was always a difficult to keep situation

It certainly wouldn’t be Jota I would move on from that list.

 

[UEAwolf]

Rory Smith now tweeting the deal is pretty close

 

[Superted]

Perhaps I should rephrase.

I think Vinagre would be better and more effective in a wide forward role rather than wing back.

 

[lyechris]

Keep the fee low, inflate the agent fee we have access to a Liverpool player nuno wants and we keep mendes on side, meening we'll get access to his stock at great prices. It doesnt sound fair but it works for us. villa have shown us you can easily spend 100 million on rubbish. its not about the cash, it's about who you take shopping with you, like a cool dad

 

[WeAreTheWolvesII]

Absolutely embarrassing. What a ****ing joke and what the **** is going on?

Also, don't for a second think we're getting around £30-40m.

These are the tightest ***** around and wouldn't pay £45-50m for Werner so they aren't paying near that for Jota.

I started a thread to start a discussion. No minutes on Saturday, not even on the bench yesterday. This was before the rumours started.

No vindication at all, all posts including the OP prove how much I wanted him to not leave, not that I need to prove myself to a muppet like yourself.

As I said yesterday, if you don't like the thread or posts, just ignore it, it's really not hard.. ****er.

 

[Bugsy911]

No point signing a defender with the strikers money we need goals and Jota is a huge threat and big player for us , regardless of the fee I wouldn't sell him.

 

[Super Ted]

Who's going to beat Alexander-Aronld at FIFA now?

 

[Matt]

I hope we have some actual first team players lined up.

 

[Superted]

Maybe the reason they're prepared to give us Hoever for £10M is so when they pay £30M+ for Jota they've only spent net £20M+ and only lost a player that was nowhere near the first team at the moment?

 

[reanswolf]

I still think Vinagre could play in Diogo's position.

Eh???

 

[Bill S Preston Esq.]

Seems highly unlikely that he'd be on the new third shirt video if so

I've always felt this a strange argument.

He's firmly in Nuno's plans.

Makes perfect sense to shoot him in the video from a marketing pov.

Liverpool make a £50M bid.

Wolves accept.

*I'm not suggesting this is happening btw.

This is my distinct fear re: the fee.

I think our valuation of Jota and Liverpool's will differ wildly. And the Mendes card will surely mean we are getting the **** end of the stick!

have you watched him try to cross a ball?

 

[AndyY]

great memories. i wish him well but in my view neto and podence are better

But i would still like to see 2 good players for each position to provide competition and cover.

 

[WeAreTheWolvesII]

Don't know the fees involved but this is clearly way past 'interest'. It's a done deal.

 

[Deleted member 11332]

Nah tinpot trophy, ain't it @MoxleyWolf .

hahahaha. Diogo Jota leaves wolves as they went oh the league cup. Hilarious.

 

[Miniwolf]

Agree, 35m is really low for Jota, Vile have just spent nearly 30m on a forward from the championship.

 

[TezzaWolf]

Gutted if this happens

We are losing experienced players. Diogo has played a lot of games for a 23 year old.

Looks like the idea is to get 18-20 year olds who have barely played a senior game but could be superstars in the future.

We won't spend big on a Dias type we will look for the guy who could be as good as Dias in 3-4 years.

That seems to be the route for this window. We'll have to wait and see if it's going to be successful.

 

[reanswolf]

Actually, thinking about it, imagine him with a forward thinking midfield behind him.

He could be lethal.

 

[Bugsy911]

I don't id sell him don't rate him at all

 

[Kebab Warrior]

This is literally breaking my heart

 

[sc91]

hahahaha. Diogo Jota leaves wolves as they went oh the league cup. Hilarious.

Forcing the move by sounds, guess he values winning something. Numpty, doesn't he know we can crack the 5th place trophy this year!

You said you had a suspicion and you weren't in the know. We really had no real reason to believe he was off last night.

We're on the same page as to not wanting him to leave.

Let's drop the personal insults though, that's more embarrassing than any of this.

 

[Pessimistic Wolf]

I would be very disappointed to see Jota go, although if it is true that he is forcing a move, I'd sooner take a big fee and let him go than keep him against his will. He has definitely earned any move he wants to make - a great servant for the club.

What I am becoming slightly concerned about is our current transfer policy. We seem to be all too keen to sell proven Premier League players - and with Jota - a huge future with us - and replacing them with very, very young players.

Don't get me wrong. Silva, Vitinha and Hoever (if he comes) are very exciting, but it is asking a hell of a lot for them to hit the ground running and contribute in the same way that the players they are replacing have.
