Summer Transfer Window 2022.

[Mile End Wanderer]

Palhinha, or a CM of a similar ilk, is required regardless of whether Neves leaves or not. The squad is too small and our lack of depth is a serious issue in midfield, even more so if Moutinho doesn't sign a new deal.

FOSUN can't afford to be complacent this Summer as they have been in previous years, else it's going to be a long season.

If Bruno wants to deploy 3 CMs for example then the only options he'll have are Neves/Palhinha, Moutinho and Dendoncker, with an inexperienced young player in Cundle there to fill in when required. Newcastle away was a prime example of what could happen on a more regular basis if we're not as fortunate with injuries this coming season.

100%! Without additions to this area we’re in a weak position

 

[JayStringer]

100%! Without additions to this area we’re in a weak position

Agreed. Before Neves goes we need to sign two midfielders. If Neves goes we need to sign three.

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

Agreed. Before Neves goes we need to sign two midfielders. If Neves goes we need to sign three.

Cundle can only play in a 3 so yeah unless you promote Hodge then same boat. Should we go down this route you could say 17th has become our hopes & aspirations

 

[DanishWolf]

Agreed. Before Neves goes we need to sign two midfielders. If Neves goes we need to sign three.

That's the thing isn't..

Imagine Moutinho leaving (More likely as time goes by) and Neves being sold late in the window.
We then go into the season with Dendoncker as our only PL midfielder.
That surely should wake up even the most blinded happy clappers...

And of course it could all be much different and more positive. But we did go into last season with only 3 midfielders so....

 

[AndyWolves]

Jfc - the window hasn't even opened yet and people are losing their ****

No, he's just resting....

That was happening 5 mins after the final whistle at the Liverpool game.

TBF I'd be classed as a blinded happy clapper by many on here. I'm not worried. The window isn't open yet and I'll wait to judge based on what they do. But I do think they need to sign at least two mids and probably three.

I do not wish to get into any sort of argument and respect other views etc on here but for those saying the window isnt even open yet it means diddly squat. Clubs are still announcing and signing players.

I count a whopping 3 deals done so far. 2 for reserve keepers

Just do what I do Jos, have renewed expecting nothing but a relegation battle, assume the transfer window will be nothing more than a disappointment, hope to be amazed but accept the likely, after all will be nothing new.

 

[CelebrityWolf]

Any new credible rumours?

No they are not. Merely agreements have been reached not one signature.

Just because we haven't doesn't mean we are not working on it.

Yes I realise this is falling on deaf ears

A relegation battle would be something new!

Tbf I can name more than 3 off the top of my head rather than use sky sports

Not in my lifetime of support, in fact quite a regular occurence.

 

[JOSWolf]

I am sure I read today that Leeds have completed two signings so far and Newcastle signed a player today. In fact a picture of Newcastle's signing actually signing his contract today!

 

[Hoganstolemywife]

Fair enough if we are going back some time! I would say it would be the first under Fosun but I think their first season sort of qualifies. If we hadn't gone on that - out of nowhere - winning run, we seemed to be plummeting

 

[AndyWolves]

I am sure I read today that Leeds have completed two signings so far and Newcastle signed a player today. In fact a picture of Newcastle's signing actually signing his contract today!

We've done the same with Hwang, but I guess that doesn't count

 

[5150]

I am sure I read today that Leeds have completed two signings so far and Newcastle signed a player today.

Can guarantee not one signature went on a piece of paper.

But hey... I won't get in the way of you worrying about other teams signings.

Have a great Summer

 

[JOSWolf]

We did but we announced it in January. Leeds have signed two players so far and both have signed their contracts. It is a myth that the window isnt open. Not saying there have been loads of signings but the date for the opening of the window seemingly has no bearing on clubs being able to announce new signings and players signing the contract.

Can you? There is actually a picture of Newcastle's signing, signing his contract today! The new Leeds signing signed his contract today. It is on their official site.

No worries. You enjoy your summer as well.

Unless they are on a free they cannot be signed until the window opens. Announce yes, sign no.

So we announced it before the window was open, isn't that what you were bothered by?

That's Matt Targett who has been on loan all last season.
Can't sign until end of June

Don’t tell Steve Bulls Knee. He believes in myths. He told me the window wasn’t open. I tried to put him straight but got the usual bullying and abuse.
Must be an employee of the club seeing as he hasn’t been banned for persistent infringement of forum rules ??
Or is that a myth ??

 

[Wolves Heathen]

Maybe the window is not open, but according to this deals have been agreed since June 1st.

It proves that you can announce and players do sign contracts before the window officially opens. Thats all I'm getting at Andy. Its there in proof today if you go and look at both Newcastle and Leeds official sites.

You know that’s Matt targett, right? On loan there since January , they’ve just completed the signing?

 

[JOSWolf]

That's Matt Targett who has been on loan all last season.

He has signed his contract though. So has the player who joined Leeds today. It is on both official websites.

 

[Eastyorksyeltz]

I am assuming it is the registration of players that cannot be done before the window opens. The contract is between player and owner and could presumably have a clause that refers to the dependence on future registration? I'm just guessing here, does anyone know?

Well there we have it! I rest my case my Lord.

 

[Wednesbury Wolf]

Players can sign contracts agree wages and all the perks anytime but the details are only official when the paperwork is submitted to the Premier league when the window opens.

I would say that if a player has signed a contract then they are obliged to honour it as both Leeds and Newcastle have done today.

Haven’t Villa signed 4 and Spurs 2?
No doubt 1/2 others too

Has he? Leeds agree deal for defender Kristensen

Exactly, so what you're unhappy about wolves not doing, is something wolves have actually done.

 

[JOSWolf]

That is what I am trying to get at. Players can sign contracts and be announced as has been proven today. The window not being open, officially, in no way should effect your ability to announce a signing or get a player to sign a contract at this stage as has been proven today.

 

[Jonzy54]

Not in my lifetime of support, in fact quite a regular occurence.

I have seen 9

 

[JOSWolf]

Yep, Jonzy and in all those cases along with Leeds United's two signings all have signed contracts and been announced by their respective clubs.
