He's magnificent. Wow what a player, what a great guy to boot. Our new talisman as is Neto.he, like Raul and Jota were.
Before PSR started biting you'd have said £100m+. However there's going to be a huge slump in player prices now. I still think we'd make money, but nowhere near as much as pre PSR points penalties.United paid £80m or whatever it was for Anthony, Chelsea paid £80m odd for Mudryk. How much is Cunha worth?
That wins trophiesCunha
Jota Raul Neto
That would do some serious damage
That Athletic article is interesting ... great approach from O'Neil and his team.Great article on Cunha in the Athletic. Focuses on how much he reaches out to Gary for advice and takes it onboard, and how he’s part of the beating heart of the team with Mario Jr, with Kilman and Sarabia taking as leaders in different halves of the pitch.
Matheus Cunha: Wolves' 'good guy' whose eagerness to learn is being rewarded
Cunha offered only glimpses of his talent last season but, under Gary O'Neil, his goals have helped propel Wolves into the top halftheathletic.com
Separately, I just saw an interesting stat on Cunha
“Cunha was never a reliable finisher in his first season at Molineux. However, the Wolves man has now scored seven goals and set up five in his last 12 league games, remarkably outscoring every other FPL forward except Dominic Solanke (£7.1m) from Gameweek 12 onwards.”
FPL notes: "Unbelievable" Cunha, fragile Chelsea, Solanke blanks
Wolverhampton Wanderers’ comeback win over Chelsea and Nottingham Forest’s draw at Bournemouth are the focus of our Scout Notes article.www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk
Love the way he drops his shoulder when he gets the ball and just accelerates so quickly, like a swordfish
Still will struggle to get into the Crooks team of the week because someone scored for Spuds
Do swordfish even have shoulders?Swordfish are renowned for their incredible ability to drop a shoulder.
Not quoting this OP to get at @Wolfmeister75, just made me think how much peoples' opinions have changed in a relatively short space of time ...watching him yesterday and before anyone starts having a pop I realise it’s a meaningless friendly. But, the chances he had against a makeshift Celtic defence make me wonder whether we’ve wasted yet another serious wedge of cash on a forward who ain’t going to score than 5 goals this season. On the plus side Silva looked really good.
I thought you might be his agent...Just putting it out there, I said he looked a class player when he came on v Villa for the last 20 minutes
They have structures that became shoulders over evolutionary time. Does that count?Do swordfish even have shoulders?

I genuinely wanted to laugh at this, then checked and learned something! ThanksThey have structures that became shoulders over evolutionary time. Does that count?

If placing the ball is good enough for Messi.....Love him......only criticism is decision making on when to shoot and sometimes needs to put foot through the ball more rather than going for placement almost every time
Neto springs to mind when he pulled up against Newcastle. We hoped it would be minor and perhaps he'd be back in a couple of weeks - only for it to drag on for months.Like others here I both hope and pray that he will just have a minor hamstring problem that will hopefully be a thing of the past in the next few weeks...

At least we know that our medical team will not rush anybody back. If Cunha comes back in three weeks or in August, we can trust it to be the right decision.
His absence (if lengthy) and Hwang's propensity for niggling injuries might be a blessing this summer if Fosun can see that the absence of two goalscorers saw us finish 15th instead of 9th and £12m in place money.
That's why my take....Collins kept apologising so thought he had caught him late ...I must have been seeing something different from the North Bank Upper, but it looked like an impact injury, rather than a pull or strain. Whatever it is, a want him back in good time for Brighton.
Yeah, I thought it looked like was struggling from a cynical kick to the shin. He did land a little awkwardly though, so could have over stretched the hamstring. I’m guessing though really, but like you, I initially thought it was impact injury. Either way it was part of Brentford’s plan I feel - foul wolves players as they get into their stride/look dangerous.I must have been seeing something different from the North Bank Upper, but it looked like an impact injury, rather than a pull or strain.
