He may as well just sign a contract with us if no one good wants him. Would he receive a contract as good as what we originally offered him? His stock has certainly gone down, despite well being worth the risk for someone.
I’d be surprised if Wolves would offer him a new contract.

I just mean, that if they've had no further information passed on, and there's nothing coming out in the media, I wouldn't blame them for avoiding The Mix for a bit and the likely vitriol they would receive for missing the timeframe they expected.

Things will come good I'm sure :)
If there is any vitriol aimed at the ITKs, then it’s up to the rest of us to stand by them.

Looks the opposite to me. Cutrone and Bonatini will go and Fabio is going on loan. Will leave us with virtually no centre forwards.
It'll leave us with two.
Same amount we had last season (bar 1)

They have arranged the friendlies and training camp with MFC (Marbella football centre) as they have done for the last few years.

Where as they normally use the Marbella campus they are using melia Villaitanna this time. The hotel looks amazing and is on the outskirts of Benidorm opposite the theme park and zoo

Thank you

it might be worth reminding people what the definition of the word rumour is:

"a currently circulating story or report of uncertain or doubtful truth."


So if a rumour doesn't come off its exactly due to the above.

Are the games in Preseason free to watch on Face Book and Youtube or do you have to pay ?

Bit late to the party here but do we think that Ronan may get an opportunity this season. If we do shift to a back four and play with a 'number 10' he could offer us something in that role primarily as a sub. Always thought he looked technically sound it was just the physical side of the game where he lacked.
He’s good on the ball and has a great shot on him. I think he could be good backup/rotation option with Podence.

Just to expand a little: in many ways MGW and Ronan are both holdovers from the pre-Nuno era. Pre-Nuno (especially under Jacket, a bit less under Zenga and Lambert due to short tenure) the focus of the youth system was 433, with a triangle in the middle 3 that could have either an advanced or deep player. The result was players like MGW and Ronan -who were exactly the creative attacking midfield players we’d been looking for under Jackett- becoming available to the first team just as Nuno changed everything at all levels to his back 3. So I think both MGW and Ronan could shine with a more attacking coach like (in theory) Bruno. Either as the advanced point in a midfield 3 or as a narrow inside forward.

I've always liked Dzeko
Getting on but
With 5 subs next season he would be a very useful option

Yep. A Dzeko signing (now, at 36) would suggest to me that they still have faith in Raul leading the line but want a dependable backup.

Hes just rejected an approach from juventus. Also says he is on 9.75m euros a year. I really cant see this one happening at all, even if the reasoning is sound to give raul some support whilst fabio is off on loan

I agree the wages would be the issue. You don’t sign a player on Dzeko wages to sit on the bench. But I also can’t see a 36 year old Dzeko being signed to lead the line for 38 prem games. (Tho Dzeko’s game was never about pace.) for the clubs linked -us, Everton, Leicester- I can only see him coming if it’s to rotate and have an impact from the bench. Which is what he did at City.

I don't know why we can't somehow dangle the carrot for Adama. Sit down with him and his agent and explain he hasn't done enough to warrant the bumper new contract he wants so offer him a sensible increase but incentivise it.

Offer him a 12-month extension to his current contract but with a slight increase in salary and a release clause of, say £15M with performance clauses so if he gets, say 5 goal involvments by January 1st he gets a 10% pay bump but his release clause goes up. If he gets 10 goal involvements he gets a 20% pay bump but a bigger release clause and so on.

If he hits certain targets by the end of the season then he gets his new bumper contract including a release clause commensurate with a player of his ability with that level output.

He gets an incentive to improve his output but if he doesn't we're not on the hook for a ridiculous salary and we protect ourselves from the vultures if he does start performing.
A very sensible post, I’m just not sure what’s going on in the lads head. Illusions of grandeur for sure. He thinks he’s champions league but he’s not and wolves are the ideal team for him. He just can’t see it!

CF in the french league -

Only trying to guess the ITK post

Summer interest in OGC Nice striker Amine Gouiri (22) has been minimal but he remains one of France's leading talents. Will the transfer window's forgotten man stay that way until September?

Wonder if Aouar is the french based player, available for 15 mill eur

Would tick the boxes but I doubt it personally.

On Dzeko would be a great signing. Still got goals in him and would probably still beat out Raul even if he can't play every minute of the season

I wouldn’t stress it on the timelines of our ITK-ish-ers… it’s all a domino effect. As soon as the Silva loan goes through - which we all know is going to happen - I’m sure the next one will come into play.

Dzeko would be a lot of money for a 36 year old so I doubt we’d go in for him.

Cheers Cornwall. Always appreciated

Too many different sources now for there not to be truth in it, including Sellars as of yesterday!
