    Wolves have completed the £16mil signing of 20 year old Ruben Neves who is one of the goldenboys of Portuguese football......how has that happened ;nonono

    Well, Wolves are managed by Nuno, who is Portuguese, and I'd imagine he has a good agent who has figured that a year or two of Championship football will put his player in the PL window.

    ;puzzled theres a good agent out there

    It's only a guess. Could be the agent thought Wolves were PL... ;nonono
  • alderzalderz
    Could be that Wolves offered him a whopping agent fee
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    Could be that there is a buyback clause ;whistle

    Could be Wolves are mugs....

    The agent is George Mendez who has Ronaldo, Mourinho, de Gea and others in his stable.

    An attacking MF?

    And is he coming for a medical? For talks?
  • LukerzLukerz
    Apparently we haven't scouted him. He was offered to us by Onyekuru's agent when we were in talks with him.
  • VorselaarhammerVorselaarhammer
    1in3 for the last couple of seasons pretty decent for a MF...

    This seems like the flimsiest and one of the most unlikely 'apparently' rumours I've ever read ;whistle

    An attacking midfielder from the bottom half of the Turkish Super Lig

    If he's the answer I think we're asking the wrong question
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    Let's hope, if this rumour is true, that we asked the same question that we put to Lanzini.

    It's good to try something new, you never know this new strategy of chasing bigger names and then sign someone from the Turkish league might work!

    Altogether.... Just like my dreams they fade N'Diaye ;hug coyi
  • madridhammermadridhammer
    From what I've seen so far Gray is the one I'm most keen on.I think he'll see us as a bigger club than where he currently is & would be a decent signing. Let's face it,we're not going to attract a really big name & someone who knows where the net is & hopefully stays fit would be an upgrade on why we already have.

    Oooh thats Badou

    I went through the whole Erykah Badu thing in my head and decided my original posting was painful enough ;lol
  • LukerzLukerz
    N'Diaye has a decent scoring record for a CM and it is a position we need to fill, as none of our CM's have the potential to score many goals. It he's athletic too that is another trait we need to add to our side.

    But not sure of his quality.
  • eskimokingeskimoking
    So my preference for remaining signings was 2 strikers, a left winger and then possibly back up for Kouyate and Lanzini as no-one can compete with them for style of play. If he's box-to-box, athletic and scores goals, I would see him as Kouyates competition, so potentially a good signing.
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    surely he is competing with Lanzini ? i would have though the 4 MF spots were Fernandes / Kouyate / Obiang / Noble ?
  • Giant_HammerGiant_Hammer
    Just signed in to see who we haven't signed again this week and I'm not disappointed. I'll sign in again next week to see who we haven't signed again. ;biggrin

    Obviously anyone can look good on YouTube (Julian Faubert looked like ronaldo before we got him) ... but he does seem to have some very good qualities...

    No idea if we are really in for him or not, but the Soshallow Media (c) warriors bleating on about him being unknown does my crust in.

    How many of those geniuses had ever heard of Lanzini, or Le Sulk, for that matter? Or Kouyate? Or Obiang?

    No guarantee he will be any good, obviously (should he come), but no reason to assume he won't be either, just because he hasn't shown up on the back pages of the sports rags.

    Some decent goals in that Youtube clip, but a fair few of them seem to rely on goalkeepers with quite a serious phobia of footballs...

    No-one had heard of Sakho before he came to us. He actually started really well and quickly showed he could cut it in this league.
