Am I the only person under the impression that Helda Costa is going to leave this summer? As much as I would love him to stay things just do not add up, spending 15m on Neves, the 13m we thorked up for Costa, new signings, loan fees etc. the talk of us spending 20m on a striker? We will almost certainly fall foul of ffp. Why have we signed Jota? Maybe Costa's going and we will sign Jota in January the same thing we did with Costa. Its actually a masterplan if you think of it, their is no way we can fall foul of the FFP rules that way, and certainly works in our favour. Also these rumours of Chris Wood for 15m! C'mon, that's ridiculous. Thoughts?

FFP rules are assessed over 3 years, ergo, any spending by wolves this season, plus the past 2 seasons, less revenue earned, the total loss must not exceed £5m per year average. Revenue earned includes prize money, such as the £120m if you get promoted to the premier league. Having spent very little the past 2 years and having a full molineux every week this season will help mitigate any losses.

Interesting Manurhys.
I wouldn't say Costa has to go there are other players that don't fit in either at the minute. You could add batth, Edwards, Marshall, Doherty etc etc. From that list I mean that it's pointless having Marshall and Doherty. Batth has been found out. He can not pass 30 yards like coady.
The squad needs cutting. We have added quality apart from up front. Also certain youngsters will go out on loan to cut wage bill it's going to be a tidy bit of business from wolves this season. If 26m as quoted comes in from Chelsea I'm sure wolves would allow it knowing they have filled that void already or with another signing.

Rhys - why does your name have Man U in front of it?

Jota is on loan as all Wolves fans know.

Maybe we are going to sign Lukaku.

He's injured until November so won't be going anywhere.
Chris Wood is exactly that a rumour there's nothing in it, Fosum will get around ffp if they want they could easily sponsor the stadium with Thomas cook or something.

You could have a point but no chance he’ll go this window, simply because there won’t be enough time to prove his fitness and get the kind of performances that would command the fee required (£20m+) . Its not impossible though that your point still holds with them intending to sell in January, as you say with the Jota fee agreed.
Mind you I’m not sure it would be as ‘necessary’ as peeps think, FFP are a nonsense and pretty easy to work round at this level. For a start the fine is at a percentage of any deficit so the board could just do what all other clubs do and ignore it for the season in the hope that they go up and simply sell if they do not? Here’s an interesting fact, until last season every team finishing in the auto promo spaces would have failed FFP (Newc were the first team to buck the trend through shrewd player sales) . Most clubs simply paid the fine out of the extra millions that Prem football bought or counter balanced it over the following FFP period with sensible transfer policy and the riches bought by the Prem! FFP is a nonsense, not because they shouldn’t be trying to control spending but more because it’s a broken system! Was supposed to make things fairer but if you REALLY look at the way it works all it really does is protect the status quo/ top four/ big teams…which is why all the established clubs were SO in favour of it!

If we go up we will not breach ffp.

We have many too move on, FFP works over 3 years, unless you go breaking the bank big time, yes we have spent, but we haven't broke FFP, we have many too move on, Lonergan, Prince, Evans, possibly price, even zyro may end up going, I think we are going to ship out some if not all of the above so gives us more spending power, prince will end up in France, and we may end up getting a good amount for Iorful IF he impresses 👌 Last comment for me. hopefully it is not any kids Ronan Gibbs white etc sold too bridge the gap 👌 wolves ay we.

Are you off your head or do you just not understand how football works?
How will costa leave this summer if he's injured? How's he going to pass a medical? 😴😴😴😴😴.

we are fine with ffp! the neves fee is spread over 5 years. and no we are not going to spend 20m again those are just stupid rumours.

To be fair winston nothing is stupid anymore. 200m for Neymar is a joke. Although I respect he's worth 40 goals a season with assists and goals no footballer is worth that money. Everyone's price has gone up by 2-4 million now that we would be looking at. I can see a further 20m been spent on strikers but we won't get the deal of it been split over 2-5 seasons by our rivals unless they are struggling with FFP.

It is normal to have two players for each position if you are a top club which we think we are atm so we have Jota Bright Bonatini as our attack but Costa Graham Cav Dicko can slip in same with our wing backs where Marshall and Vinagre can slip in for Doc and Douglas and Price and Edwards for Saiss and Neves

A couple more injuries and we will need some of these players.

Italiano.
Not a criticism, just an observation.

We brought loads of players in last year carrying injuries.

This year we brought Phi Fosu-Ayeh who has been on the treatment table since he arrived.

George, I can tell you now I am not Wavid. I do not condone what he said about Carl Ikeme. Exactly what 'opinion' have a I spouted? Maybe I am right, Costa may leave, we may sign Jota permanatly as his replacement and copy this season after season. I just put 'my' opinion' out their, no1 eles'. Also, I have Manu infront of my name because I was a red devils fan as a kid, all my usernames were 'manurhys' I realised one day where I was born and bread and that my blood runs gold and black.

If we don't get promotion jota and boly will b off that's why they r on a season long loan Nuno persuaded them to come in the hope we get promotion and sign them permantly otherwise they will b off.

How much money will that PPV in China bring in? Apparently there were millions of purchases last year. Think what it will be if Wolves are actually a good team with appealing football and are near the top of the table.
