SIGNED: Matheus Cunha (Athletico Madrid)

[YouGottaRaulWithIt]

I still can’t get my head round the posters who think we may be relegated .? We are on our way up

More likely to go down than stay up at the moment. But Julen plus 2/3 good signings might just be enough.

 

[Hoganstolemywife]

This would be a real coup for a team in our position

30 points from 23 games.

I think we’ll get a lot more than that.

 

[tonto]

We are bottom of the league with 23 games left. Of course we may be relegated

Really
Nah we are Wolves

Never we have a manager now

 

[Rhyl Wolf]

Never we have a manager now

No pressure on JL then. I actually believe we will stay up, at expense of S'ton, Forest & Leeds. Hopefully, the rebuilding starts now.

 

[wolvesaywe]

We simply need to get 6 points more than 3 of the 6 teams above us in 23 games

I fail to see how we won't do that given we now have Lopetegui and the standard of players seemingly coming in

 

[SanFranWolf]

Credit where it’s due.

Business done before jan 1st with the right man in charge

I agree Jonesy, credit where it’s due.

I still wish that we’d have followed the same philosophy for all of the other transfer windows we’ve wasted. At least we seem to have finally learnt the lesson.

If we had have done I doubt we’d currently be sitting bottom of the PL.

After the Talisca fiasco and the seemingly inevitable purchase of Palhinha et al; I prefer to see who actually arrives rather than players 'seemingly coming in'.
As for now having Loppy; do you think the bookies haven't noticed that we have a new manager? We are still one of the favourites for relegation with them and whilst odds fluctuate for a variety of reasons including money placed; the appointment of the ex-Savilla manager doesn't seem to have impressed them too much.
Obviously, I hope you are right and admire your confidence that we will get the requisite points, but I don't think it is as clear-cut as you state.

 

[JOSWolf]

I reckon four or five new signings will come in with outgoings as well. No sentiment will be shown.

 

[JOSWolf]

Cunha may not be the only player coming from Atlético according to Romano.

Well the original story was that they were preparing to let Felix go out on loan too lol

Carrasco

 

[lets all have a disco]

Saul niguez I reckon....him n lopetugui go way back....

Let’s hope.exactly what’s needed

Where does he say that? Not disbelieving you just can't see it on his Twitter feed.

Saw it on Twitter. He did a vlog earlier apparently and said Cunha wasn’t the only player involved.

Be Semedo the other way.

 

[Skrilla]

It was worded in a way that suggests players could be heading to Atletico as well...

 

[JOSWolf]

Be Semedo the other way.

Think it may be another Atlético player coming here but we will see. We will need a right back anyway.

 

[JOSWolf]

Semedo or Adama would be my guess if this is the case.

 

[Skrilla]

Here is where he talks about it:

Sounds to me like somebody might be heading to Atletico. Who would they want from us that's good enough to improve them? Bit concerned it could be Neves...

Dont think Neves gets in their midfield tbh, thats probably their strongest area

Havent they been linked with Semedo in the past?

No, Semedo they wanted him to replace trippier, wouldn’t surprise me they go in again for him now they have a bargaining tool with Cunha. Possibly also Adama

 

[Wolf316]

Carrasco

Saul niguez I reckon....him n lopetugui go way back....

Can we have both?

 

[Wolf316]

Adama is about as far from a Simeone player as you can get.

 

[rg4352]

Adama is about as far from a Simeone player as you can get.

That’s why I said possibly……

Wouldn’t be the first player to be attempted to use as a makeweight in a transfer negotiation either, irrespective of being a manager player or not.

 

[JOSWolf]

If semedo did go then a right back will be on the way in for sure. In fact maybe even two as Jonny nowhere to be seen and looks a pale shadow of the player he was.

I was talking about this with someone the other day, he seems to have completely disappeared, I don’t recall seeing him in any training videos, apart from that one they filmed of the players returning where he looked quite unhappy. Does he have long left on his contract?

I had heard Newcastle were looking at Semedo also, no idea if true of course, but if it is, it seems he is in the shop window, and yet heard nothing on Jonny at all. Selling both feels a bit risky though unless we have replacements lined up… Guess we shall wait and see!

Centre back.. any good?

Felipe Augusto de Almeida Monteiro (born 16 May 1989), known simply as Felipe or Felipe Monteiro, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a centre back for Spanish club Atlético Madrid and the Brazil national team.

 

[Asthmatic Wolf]

I wonder if Diego is in better shape than expected and JL anticipates pairing him with Cunha

 

[DanishWolf]

Yes! No nonsense centre-back with great leadership qualities. Out in the cold now but played most games for them last season including their CL quarterfinal games vs City.
I'd say he comes with the leadership we've lacked in defence.
