Seems a good signing on the face of it.
No dont believe so , think this is a boly replacement.He’s not going back to 3/5 at the back is he?

Though saying that, not a bad thing to be able to do when you’re 1-0 and struggling to see the fame out.
Thank you sir.35 caps for Belgium and 37 games in Europe at 27 years old; being possibly being qualified as Home Grown, due to coming through Manchester City and him being used at both Centre Back and Midfield - would make this an excellent deal for a Free move.
Very surprised he wasn’t snapped up after he left Lyon, by another club in European competition!

Hopefully a challenge for Collins. Must admit I haven’t been overly impressed with him. Might be my expectations of a £20m Centre Half, the lauding of him by various pundits as a ball playing centre half and playing alongside Kilman. The latter is fast pushing into the top echelon of Centre Backs I’ve seen at Wolves. The current list is Lescott, Richards and a fit De Wolf. I was too young to appreciate Munro although I did see him play a couple of times and know that older fans think he was the dogs *******s.Under contract he’s probably worth north of £20m. This would be a very, very good signing. So much so that Kilman/ Collins are gonna be under huge pressure to keep performing.
Very happy if it happens
Collins isn't above this guy right now imo. Too many mistakes made 4 games in to be definite undroppable first choice.It seems slightly strange, just three months before a World Cup, that a Belgian international would allow themselves to be a free agent, missing out on pre-season and then eventually seemingly being content just to be back-up.
Sorry to hear that. I'm sure that your luck will change.Error-prone.
Maybe in a world cup year, not being in European competition may be seen as a plus.35 caps for Belgium and 37 games in Europe at 27 years old; being possibly being qualified as Home Grown, due to coming through Manchester City and him being used at both Centre Back and Midfield - would make this an excellent deal for a Free move.

That’s in fairness to you an interesting point. Shame we still can’t score!Only 3 clubs have conceded less goals than Wolves in the first four games.
Great start by a new Centre half pairing. But this guy sounds like good back up.
They couldn’t, or chose not to, meet his wage demands.How come lyon let him walk away
I assume the same will happen with Adama at the end of this season, if he stays that long..They couldn’t, or chose not to, meet his wage demands.
As are the bulk of our squad at times...Error-prone.
Apparently the Torino move fell through due to a Saudi side offering much better terms, not sure why that one didn't happen though.Had a promising future and played regularly for Lyon before injuries impacted his season last season. Was apparently close to joining Torino earlier in the window before "a twist behind the scenes" - wonder if that was medical related
Think he'll be useful to have in the squad as Toti (to a lesser extent) and certainly Mosquera (as back up to Collins) aren't up to standard yet. Hopefully he's clear of his injuries and the twist was something else.
Let's give him a 5 million signing bonus as well shall we Elvis?Gerr him in NOW !!!
Ok thanksApparently the Torino move fell through due to a Saudi side offering much better terms, not sure why that one didn't happen though.
Seems like we have hijacked itApparently the Torino move fell through due to a Saudi side offering much better terms, not sure why that one didn't happen though.
Sounds like a plan !!Let's give him a 5 million signing bonus as well shall we Elvis?
