(single word yields best result)

Agreed pompeywolf. But number 9 is Steve bull.



25 Aug 2016 21:51:04
Bookies odds on us signing Rhodes says we are 5/ 2 favourites. Something we don't know?



25 Aug 2016 22:00:32
We're 11/ 4 with been that all day, the biggest movers at 11/ 2 were villa, but hopefully their after the Wolfsburg striker and Derby want Vydra.



25 Aug 2016 22:10:13
By Wolsfsburg I hope you don't mean Bas Dost. I'd have him above anyone.



25 Aug 2016 22:36:51
I do, I would as well, we def need Rhodes imo. Come on Big Jeff sort it.



25 Aug 2016 23:06:57
Come on Paul that's not like you, you'd be fighting for the best players! I'm afraid we need to be matching Newcastle for signings. Being honest I don't think they have made 1 bad one yet and now they are after the Palermo left back. Anyway we are talking old skool players on the rumours site. Nothing else happening!



26 Aug 2016 04:42:22
Jordan Rhodes if we got him would be one our best players, we need quality strikers that's the way to get out this league. Nice to reminisce about old Wolves sides but to be honest I'm more concerned with the up comin one.



26 Aug 2016 10:47:42
Why do people go on bookies odds, they change odds to what money is being placed not what they are told or heard, we were odds on to sign talisca, look what happened there.



26 Aug 2016 12:27:21
Thankyou Tony. Doh!



25 Aug 2016 20:50:46
No he didn't get Blackburn up because the players around him were rubbish. yes were in a better position than last it's great. but it's very unusual that a billionare club that everyone was ravin about a month ago have spent 7.5m on 9 players if these two sign. I've never seen it before . and I've never seen so many obvous proven championship players ignored instead we have played the lottery and signed a load of of players no one's heard of . what I'm saying is us fans would feel more at ease with rhodes Pritchard judge as an example. then add 3 or 4 forein players around them .



25 Aug 2016 22:09:17
Us fans? i'm one for along time. give them a go pal. doyle 6.5 ohara 5mill ect no thanks.



25 Aug 2016 20:46:49
Just watched Paul gladon goals on line and they were great think he will be a great asset to wolves and l do know he missed to pens so what even Aguero misses now and again.



25 Aug 2016 20:58:33
. Aguero missed 2 last week in Bucharest! .

Talking of CL, anyone else notice Talisca and Besiktas drawn in the same group as benfica,

. Anyone else ever played against ex-team mates?, - ouch 😊.



25 Aug 2016 22:39:21
He's on loan isn't he so probably won't be allowed.



25 Aug 2016 20:08:58
All I see is spent 8mill on a player. now did jordan get blackburn up. did martins get derby up. let them do there thing guys'time will tell. ay we.



25 Aug 2016 19:58:52
Anyone curious as to why Jeff isn't buying proven championship players. I know we bid for Martin. There's some good players in championship. Ide like to see at least 1 signing to mic experience with youth.



25 Aug 2016 20:05:23
No look at derby mate.



25 Aug 2016 19:52:34
After last season we are very lucky to be in the position we are in now, look at the bigger picture we are going places, it's a great feeling, in the past every week was a nightmare give all the new players a chance, look how all the other players have improved it's great so good luck guys for a new future to wolves players and fans.



25 Aug 2016 19:45:42
HoneSt opinion? when taken over by billionares (4th richest club in counrty) did everyone believe that 20mil plus would be spent on players.



25 Aug 2016 19:52:17
No never was going to happen.



25 Aug 2016 19:55:06
Let's wait till the window shuts weds night before we judge.



25 Aug 2016 14:38:33
Looks like we could be signing Paul gladon.



26 Aug 2016 07:31:27
Cor believe people moaning about the players we have signed man we've signed 9 players we aye signed that many players in how many seasons let's just get behind our club manager and owners and players this is a new era cor believe some people yo tek some pleasing come on boys let's get behind aye 🖒🖒.



25 Aug 2016 19:35:19
I see Paul gladon best know for missing two penaltys in 60 sec also his goal record is worst than siggys so I'm really excited by this one also splashing the cash the fee is 1 million . so I'd say we would definitely push the boat out and pay 8million for rhodes lmao not!



25 Aug 2016 19:44:50
This could be good, back-up for Bod and for the bench (he's played as sub a lot), we need depth and as long as we're still going for a really proven striker we can rely on as well it's good.

25 Aug 2016 20:07:04
Did he get blackburn up?



25 Aug 2016 21:22:24
Wednesfield - do you ever say anything positive? Ibrahimovic was Free but Ross Mccormack cost £12 million (do you think Ross is infinitely better or would you prefer Ibrahimovic? transfer fees are not a measure of success unless you class going broke as success) .



25 Aug 2016 18:58:13
We won't sign Rhodes we won't pay the fee.



26 Aug 2016 00:08:43
Are you a woman cause you moan more than my wife and that's a hell of a lot just try enjoying the season. We will be linked with every man and his dog. be happy when you see a player holding up our great shirt until then take it with a pinch of salt and remember we are on a rumour site.



25 Aug 2016 18:44:13
that paul gladon could be our van basten orno.



25 Aug 2016 21:25:16
As long as you mean before Van Bastens serious injury otherwise that wouldn't be good ;-)



25 Aug 2016 18:26:59
1 million on a striker with a rubbish goal record exciting.



25 Aug 2016 16:40:50
Nouha best striker in championship on his day?



25 Aug 2016 15:00:06
Derby after Vydra so that should leave Rhodes for us.



25 Aug 2016 19:05:10
Or Chris Martin. Honestly would be delighted with either.



25 Aug 2016 11:41:56
Just been past the North Bank and there is a huge tent on the car park, is this our marquee signing?



25 Aug 2016 12:04:53
Most probably Gee Wolfs tent.



25 Aug 2016 12:17:33
That is quality ha ha.



25 Aug 2016 12:25:34
Who is loitering within tent?



25 Aug 2016 12:31:35
Bet there's a bloke up in a tree on the road n all with a laptop bay it.



25 Aug 2016 12:47:49
It's the overflow medical tent for all the players were linked with.



25 Aug 2016 13:00:15
Is it a Police tent? Maybe they're discovering where Moxey buried the bodies?

I bet they've dug a hole and found £millions of pounds worth of receipts from Greggs the Bakers that Moxey hid from accounts and claimed were agents fees.



25 Aug 2016 17:10:03
Perhaps Fosen are investing in tents because they know you will have to camp out to get tickets for matches with all the transfer activity going on, great times ahead enjoy Wolves fans.



25 Aug 2016 18:38:43
it is paul tamworths tent it is for his accuuncture therapy.
he keeps having nightmares that moxey is coming back.



25 Aug 2016 07:28:05
I agree 762. Walter has had a good look at the current squad and the first few additions. His task now gets much harder as we suddenly have a much bigger squad to integrate, get match fit and keep happy and motivated.
He will be experimenting and rotating the team for a while until he can find the strongest side and if we can have a cup run it gives more players match time.
This is a transitional season and no doubt there will be some bumps in the road. First task is to sort the defence as Iorfa and Hause have gone off the boil big time.



25 Aug 2016 11:14:29
Interesting with the old squad who has come on and who has suffered under Zenga.

Improved:
Coady
Batth
Mason
Wallace - but he was improving anyway
Saville (perhaps)

Worsened:
Iorfa
Hause
Henry
Edwards (perhaps)

Consistent:
Price
Ikeme

Unknown:
Evans.



25 Aug 2016 11:23:01
I think Price actually has improved this season already, he seems to have added a good set piece technique to his array of abilities.



25 Aug 2016 11:36:39
Add lonergan to the consistently crap section, we need a decent keeper what happened to Martinez did arsenal have him back missed that.



25 Aug 2016 11:40:48
Price is definitely the best midfielder out of the old squad, the rest can go for me.



25 Aug 2016 11:42:39
Good comments European, spot on with players Henry, Iorfa and Hause were terrible and I now it's early days but goalkeeper looks a bit iffy especially on crosses could of lost we the game, needs sorting at the back looked terrible just shows that we need a centre half badly else all the hard work from midfield to front line will be wasted .



25 Aug 2016 13:12:34
Maybe Hause and Iorfa are no worse, but are now playing in a team that is more about attacking and isn't set up to protect defence, they're suddenly being relied on as they always should have been and it's exposing that they can't be relied on?

Maybe it illustrates Kenny's cautious defensive playstyle was necessary with the players he had available to him? But if so, makes an even bigger joke of us selling Stearman, definitely wasn't for footballing reasons.



25 Aug 2016 14:00:25
Stearman was carp. He will go down in Fulhams history as the worst defender they ever signed. People have short memories it wasn't till he was sold that he was the boo boys favorite target. Get over it he has gone and hopefully never coming back.



25 Aug 2016 14:34:39
It's reasonable to think he was better than Hause or Iorfa, not in potential but at present / last season. He must have been OK to have won POT's season before.

I wouldn't judge anything on how he was at Fulham, don't think he wanted to be there and most players are no good if their motivation is shot. I'm not suggesting we should bring him back, there's better options, but it does shoot a massive hole through what the club claimed about selling him for football reasons.



25 Aug 2016 00:17:12
These new blokes need time to bed in.
Zenga is picking a lot of the current squad on match days such as the players we already had as they know this league now.
Get these new signings in a fridge ala Rocky style hitting some meat and chasing a chicken around Compton then they will be ready for the rigours of Jan-Feb.
