Hope Kilman doesn't lose out.

So do I. H deserves a starting place for the rest of the season imv whoever else is signed - so yes Boly, Coady and Saiss are threatened by the arrival of a quality CB. But not convinced anything will happen and a CM is far more important.

Is this H from Steps or H from Line of Duty? Not sure I fancy either in a back three or four.

 

[lyechris]

No idea about this kid, but he seems to be brunos man so let's Hope. I am also really keen on killman, the way he's been surging forward with the ball could he be that defensive midfielder? He can play he used to play futsal for England!

It would be a Tragedy and I would feel a Deeper Shade of Blue if he wasn't in!

JEFF PAY THEM THIER FILTHY FOREIGN FRENCH MONEY AND GERRIM BAB

**edited - this was moderated to delete ‘filthy’ - obviously I don’t think French people or foreigners are filthy it’s ironic humour in the spirit of Blackadder. If you want to force moderate this and be that PC fair enough I quit the forum.

Many have used the word filthy when describing extremely good football. Certain words have over time taken on new meanings. Stay with us. We have lost too many good warriors.

 

[Shergar]

So 5 million apart in valuation. Needs to be resolved and sharpish.

Vinny has just pledged £3m of the shortfall with one of his sca… sorry membership schemes for the legacy fans. What a guy.

Don't sideline this thread with cheap Steps or Line of Duty puns please. Jesus, Mary and Joseph and the wee donkey, there's important business to discuss here!

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

Kilman over Boly based on what 3 games? Crazy.

Maybe, I'd say Kilman has been better in all 3 games than Boly in any game since the start of last season. Perhaps that's harsh, and of course his form may dip, but I certainly couldn't justify dropping him currently.

 

[Wolf in Kenilworth]

The deal is OFF according to Romano

what a load of ****

Ah well It really is the hope that kills.

 

[JamesWolves]

Percy has become unreliable ?

 

[Wolf In Essex]

Percy has become unreliable ?

Or has Fab?

 

[sedgwolf1980]

Who are Wolverhampton?

 

[Stoichkov]

Sigh.

 

[WeAreTheWolvesII]

Shambles.

So we're now going in for a player we could've signed for £10m last month but will probably cost nearly double that, all because we wasted time on a player most on here knew was unrealistic for a host of reasons.

 

[sedgwolf1980]

The more this plays out, barring an absolute welcome portion of egg in the face, it seems to me like we are just ****ing in the wind.

 

[Wolf in Kenilworth]

And at the end of all of this it’s a penalty to United.

 

[Skrilla]

Why did we leave our bidding for a centre back so late? Truly baffling.

 

[Deleted member 8455jwf]

It was always a bit of a pipedream. Suspect he will end up at Sevilla as Kounde deal happens tomorrow.

Very strange for this to come so soon after the news from Percy. Two of the most reliable sources saying different things, unless something changed in the past hour?

 

[Sussex Wolf]

Poker

 

[sedgwolf1980]

On a serious note though, how can a deal be categorically off? They clearly need to sell, we need to buy, I can only assume he simply don’t want to come here.

Poker

Never went near her.

It’s a high stakes poker game. Two potential buyers both playing their hands and one desperate seller.

Must have been that

Let’s hope so

Ah bugger! It's the hope that kills you...

Hilman of course.

 

[ANONYMOUS☆WOLF]

Jeff low balling again ................

 

[clivewolves]

I wonder how much difference there is between our bid and what Lille want for him.

 

[Wonder Boyo]

Hilman of course.

Hillman Hunter. A fine defender indeed.

We are not going to pay £30m for anyone based on all that has been said about our finances. A loan or player in permanently for £15m or less is our kind of level it seems based on the Mir and Otasowie money.

 

[mexy]

Will anyone really be suprised if we don't get anyone of real quality, leaving it so late in the window is a risky strategy and a bit of a poor show from the recruitment team.
Anything can go wrong with these late deals including failed medicals leaving you no time to get anything else.
I fully expect 1 or 2 in tomorrow but more in desperation,scrambling around at the last minute to boost the squad with numbers rather than top players bruno wanted weeks ago.

 

[Tipton Wolves]

That is that then. We all kind of knew it would happen.

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

The trouble is always the same, we never know if we're penny pinching and missing out on someone we could have signed, or whether the player just didn't want to come.

Of course it was a risky strategy, but taking risks is how you get the biggest reward from the hand you’ve got. Of course, it can also go wrong too.

I guess we’ll find out in about 27 hours whether the risk was worth it.

 

[Wolf316]

Probably a lowball offer as we were never going to be paying £30m on a CB.

 

[WeAreTheWolvesII]

Have an offer accepted first and then if he doesn't want to come, fine.

We haven't got to that stage, which should answer the question.

 

[Matt]

Gutted. Never wanted us to sign a player I know nothing about so much.
