Preseason Portugal

[JOSWolf]

We have to have enough players on the plane to play a game . At this moment we couldn’t fill up a light aircraft .

To be fair we have taken quite a few players. Quite a few younger lads but still quite a big group with the likes of Hwang, Sa, Semedo, Bolla, Hwabe to join up potentially in Portugal

 

[Bacon Sandwich]

Is the Sunday game on Wolves TV? Desperate to give Jeff a fiver.
And check if we have 11 players...

 

[Northampton_wolf]

belive b traore will be the last one back to training given his last game for Mali u23 is 7th July

Probably not due back until 17th July

I am really looking forward to seeing what a difference a proper Lopy preseason makes to these players verses a Bruno Lage '2 laps of the pitch with Tony Roberts' preseason.

Didn't even do any laps under Lage last pre season....it was all head tennis in the pool if you remember....that was for fitness

 

[NothingButNeto]

Havent seen Chiquinho. Presume he has gone.

Chiquinho was on the plane; I expect him to do some work for us this season.

Glad we don't appear to have arranged a behind close doors pre-season game against a bunch of cloggers, like Burnley last time. Bet Chiquinho is too!

We play Vitoria de Guimareas on Sunday and are planning a second game later next week.

 

[SuperGran]

We’ve got a game against Coventry who are also out there

 

[JOSWolf]

Ollie Tipton. Ty Barnett also gone to Portugal.

Wonder if we could be signing Ivan Jamie while we are there, can get a good look at him I suppose

The worse thing of Lage's pre season was the 2 games in 2 days thing he did... Talk about encouraging injuries, think Mosquera got his first Injury doing that after a good performance at Stoke if my memory serves me well!

And who can forget last seasons battle with Levante!

looks like a couple of players are joining them out in portgual, from what i gather, so could be the likes of podence, then gomes, sa followed by then neto and silva.

Dont know when Kawabe/bolla/ will come back

But doubt B traore will be meeting up at all in the 10 day algarve camp.

Presumably, those on international duty for Portugal are already there.

I’d think they’d give them a bit of time off before having to report back though.

Last played 20th june i expect they will be back next week

its players like B Traore and lembekisa who are still playing and bolla 30th june who will need more extended breaks

neto and silva - last played 2nd July id say what the week after that for them maybe? or fly back with the team from the algarve?

Got to feel for some of the fringe players really. It’s obviously a massive honour to represent your country but they’re also missing valuable time impressing the gaffer

 

[NothingButNeto]

Per E&S, these are the U21s who joined the trip:

Ty Barnett, Josh Esen, Owen Farmer, Nathan Fraser, Harvey Griffiths, Alfie Pond and Oliver Tipton

I think we will be scouting Boubacar, Jl highly rates him and im sure we are watching his games in the u23 where hes impressed.

Lembekisa is probably most missing out with hoever being with the squad.

Bolla will be interesting hungary really rate him.

 

[Thank you Sir Jack]

I wonder if players get some kind of coaching in how to look cool when climbing aboard an aeroplane.

I do like bolla a lot I hope he gets a chance

Good for them, but realistically only there for the experience and to make sure they can have 2 x 11 a sides for practice matches/ drills.

 

[SteveBullsKnee]

It is a great experience for them especially training with the first team squad so closely. I always get the feeling (not only at wolves) that young players are so far away from the first team that the gap looks very daunting.

 

[Agent Cooper]

True. It's also good as a fan to see which crop of players are the closest to making the step up in the coaching staffs opinion.

Good job it's better than the goalscoring coaching they get, or we'd be lucky to get half of them on the flight.

 

[Nige100]

Loving some of the new training gear get it on sale and I will contribute some towards Scott.

Pleased that Sasa managed to get on hhe plane without injury

Is he even in Portugal...just expect him to be moved in asap like kawebe....

 

[SuperGran]

He’s been playing for his country so will have time off like the others

 

[lets all have a disco]

Just don't see it....he will be moved on....was never brought to play for us ...

 

[Bacon Sandwich]

Just watching the first pre-season training Player I'm impressed with how comfortable Ryan Giles is around the group.

Anyone else heard Celtic in Dublin sat 29th..

Can't believe they made sasa walk across the tarmac and up the steps...that could put him out for another season

The way it’s going it will have to be five a side

 

[Kebab Warrior]

Apparently I’m playing, just got the call!

Oh wait no I’m being sold to Al Hilal for £7.50 and a collection of Ninja Turtles comics.

Just making up the numbers.
They wouldn’t be there if it hadn’t been for Internationals

 

[Agent Cooper]

True but all I'm saying is they have been chosen because they are probably the closest in terms of pecking order in breaking through in their positions, which from a fans perspective is interesting.
