Matheus Cunha

[Evthewolf]

It’s not that Wolves haven’t spent the money. We have 2 players out on loan that cost 50 million between them. Imagine how strong we would look, if just one had been up to scratch, let alone both.

For what it’s worth, I think they have looked at it and realised, that whilst throwing money at the project, it’s not guaranteed to bring success. Jota and Neves turned a big profit but many haven’t. We had also become a bit frivolous with wages.

I think, they sat down and put a purposeful structure together that is much more sustainable long term. At least I hope that’s what they’ve done.

Get rid of the deadwood on high wages. Ride this season out and restructure. Getting someone in the January window just to fill a gap, would be immediately going against the new policy. Also, they would have only sat on the bench unless we got injuries, which of course has happened but it’s always easy with hindsight.

Yeah ive a feeling he may be out for a couple of weeks,but hope im just being pessimistic

How to illustrate MolMix in two posts...

Why.....was he out for 6 weeks or so...it may have been diagnosed already.....that my hope that's it's not a bad as first feared.....but don't want to tempt fate obviously...

£62million

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

£62million

Yes, I think that was Sasa and Silva, Guedes written on (mentally rather than in the accounts) long ago!

 

[MickHolmesFanClub]

It was very quiet on Neto's injury initially so this is not unusual.

The only 'noise' at the time was Neto himself posting "a couple of weeks" on social media.

 

[Evthewolf]

£62million

I was just thinking Sasa and Fabio but yeah, including Guedes, £75 million? How many other teams have that sort of investment loaned out? As stated, where could we have been with £75 million that was productive?

Yeah, can't even think about it too much as it's infuriating.

Absolute shambles really.

Off the top of my head
Man Utd - Jordan sancho 75m
Danny de beek 35m
That’s over 100m

Chelsea
Lukaka 115m

City have phillips and cancelo out on loan probably 75m there

It's crazy that a club our size can have so much money out on loan and it actually be in the same ball park as Utd and Chelsea. That's as much of a damning indictment as you could possibly get for our recent transfer policies and success.

 

[Wonder Boyo]

Bad news I'm afraid.

O'Neil provides injury update on Cunha

Gary O’Neil has provided an update on Matheus Cunha, who sustained a hamstring injury during Saturday’s defeat to Brentford at Molineux.

[Wolf in Kenilworth]

‘Fairly significant’ from GON is the update.

Good job we’ve got so much depth eh.

Amateurish sometimes, honestly.

O'Neil provides injury update on Cunha

Gary O’Neil has provided an update on Matheus Cunha, who sustained a hamstring injury during Saturday’s defeat to Brentford at Molineux.

www.wolves.co.uk

No timeline on Cunha return.

“It’s a fairly significant injury to his hamstring. There’s no timeline on it. I’ve spoken to Matheus a lot and he just wants to keep pushing to get back as soon as he can.

“He’s started working on it already, so we’re just going to monitor it week by week, day by day, see how far he can come and how quickly we can get him back. He’s keen to get back out there as soon as possible.

“It’s obviously a big blow to us, to the team and Matheus because of the work he’s been doing – the form he was in was exceptional. These things happen, every team suffers injuries. Channy was gone for over a month with the Asian Cup and we managed to keep ploughing on and we need to do the same without Matheus.”

 

[Perton Wolf]

We are stuffed.

Hwang back will help but doubling Neto and stifling us, as Brentford demonstrated, will become a lot easier.

 

[lets all have a disco]

**** sake..

 

[Northampton_wolf]

Did tell you that it wasn't good news on Sunday evening and the scan was more telling

 

[northnorfolkwolf]

No worries, we've got an 18 year old ready to go or let's bring Silva back from Scotland? Let's pray Hwang is able to play?

 

[Black Country Wanderer]

Big blow
Reading between the lines im guessing at 4 weeks so after next international break on 18th March is realistic return
If thats correct he misses 5 league and a cup game
Could be worse i guess

 

[Aimless Balls]

Hopefully we’ll see him in 2 months. That’s it for any FA cup dream and if Pedro goes down then so may we but yeah, hopefully we’ll see him in two months.

 

[Flaneur]

Cunha out for a while is a massive blow, even bigger than when Neto got injured imo.

So, so crucial to the way we play

 

[hollo]

But we are a caring club. We showed 'human kindness" by allowing sasa to leave.

 

[Bognor_Wolf]

You just knew this was going to happen ffs!

Said in January we need a striker not just because we need a different option against different sides ie having a natural number 9 but also cover for injuries... Cunha being injured for a long period could ruin our season a huge reason we are scoring more goals we don't have anyone who can do what he does. Not to get any cover at all is a huge balls up by the club something O'Neil himself knew!

Really bad planning from the club how some on here didn't see it actually blows my mind!

 

[North West Wanderer]

gutted, and the disappointment from january becomes much more now.

 

[hollo]

The fans saw it coming. Any decent free agents?

 

[Ches78]

Why do we keep making the same ******g mistakes! Too quick to sell or loan out players and repeatedly fail to bring decent replacements in. Deja vu, and entirety foreseeable.

 

[WW1963]

The word 'fairly' does not soften the word 'significant' - it actually makes it worse because he feels the need to soften the word 'significant' in the first place.

It's more likely to my ears to be season ending rather than just four to six weeks. But then I do tend to overthink most things and get it totally wrong more often than not.

 

[Redhillwolf]

Every single wolves fan had this nightmare the second we didn’t bring in a striker! We need to pray that Hwang comes back fit and firing and that maybe young Noha can step up and exceed all our expectations! It’s almost laughable that we have Podence, Guedes, Sasa and Fabio out and yet the first team is now bereft of depth! Madness and not the first time in recent years we’ve done similar!

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

He could give a grade of tear or whatever if he wanted to I'm sure, he's just being vague and not putting pressure on anyone. Don't see anything amateurish about it. Anyway he's not on the medical team, all he cares about is when he'll be fit, sounds like 4 weeks at least though.

 

[Titch]

Out for the season apparently

 

[Netherton Wolf]

Gutted for him & us

Difficult to argue (although some will).

Who said that?

Where is it apparent??

 

[Starsky]

Just need to get another couple of wins asap now.
