David platt decides to come out of retirement to help out villa. Upon his arrival in the dressing room he sees that the players are looking glum.
"Whats up? " He asks.

Its just that were playing bham today and they're totally rubbish, wish we were down the pub instead they reply.
platty tells them to get themselves off as although he's fat and old he can still manage to beat them on his own.
At the pub after a few pints they remember the match so ask the landlord if he can put the tv on.

They soon see that it says platts scored after 10 mins and they're winning 1-0.
A few hours go by where after a few more pints they realise the match has finished. Again they turn on the tv to see that bham equalised in the 89th minute to draw 1-1.

Off the players rush back to villa park and enter the dressing room to find platt distraught with his head in his hands.
Platty you done brilliant mate they say, we still drew, what's wrong?
On this platt replies "i went off injured after 12 minutes"

Enjoy!



10 Aug 2017 11:54:42
Tut tut! Good one, though. We'd better beat them now!



10 Aug 2017 17:16:14
i'll give ya that'it was funny, but we had better make sure we put one over the blouse and vile now.



09 Aug 2017 23:10:24
Ronaldinho said he's consider playing for anyone as long as he doesn't have to train every day. Bring him in Nuno 🀣.



10 Aug 2017 11:55:18
Quite good with free kicks as I recall.



09 Aug 2017 19:49:02
Having seen the way Nuno wants us to play now I've had a change of heart. of all the strikers we've been linked to and seeing the way bonatini plays I think Oliveira would be great for us. I hope we get him now.



09 Aug 2017 21:55:32
To be honest I'd prefer Jordan Rhodes, I think if he had the right service he would get you goals, proven goal scorer in this league, experienced and his goals to games ratio is fantastic.



09 Aug 2017 23:01:47
Rushden- But why would Rhodes leave a team he only signed for permanently this very window? I just don't see it, think the whole story is just classic click bait chat rather than anything concrete to be honest. I would take Oliveira but have a strong feeling that it will be a left field striker from the continent.

I think Mendes model will basically include not to pay large fees for domestic players when he can get them for half the fee and more to the point half the wages by shopping abroad! Riskier strategy granted that said I bet Leo's loan wages are half of what Sheff are having to pay Rhodes!



09 Aug 2017 23:04:21
Timtoo I said that a month ago. The clips I watched of him showed me he would suite us down to the ground. Excellent with both feet, in the air, linking play, and above all else scores goals.



09 Aug 2017 23:55:20
Totally agree. he's a clever footballer who knows how to hold the ball and link play. I think afobe could do it as well but I'm sure he won't be coming so let's get olivera.



09 Aug 2017 16:38:55
Well done to duckens nazon for earning himself a 2yr contract. Think he's definetely earned it over the last few months.



09 Aug 2017 17:26:52
I think the experience at Coventry will stand him in good stead, get him used to the pace of the game here. Hopefully he'll score a shed load this season and we'll have an experienced and confident striker back with us this time next year.



09 Aug 2017 17:27:49
Yep I second that. An example of someone really taking the chance offered to him. Playing regular 1st team football should really help him progress and show his potential. Whether it turns out to be good enough for us going forward only time will tell.



09 Aug 2017 19:10:07
As opposed to Bright, Nazon is in the ideal place. Get used to the British game and then see where he is in 12 months, hopefully he'll bag a load of goals and confidence.
We all agree new striker is the key position, opinions differ who, but top of my list would be Olivera. Fingers crossed and really hope this rumour has some truth. Quality over quantity must be our focus.
I think we will have enough strength and depth to get us to the next window.
Contrary to this being a rumour page, I'm not in the know, however, I'll keep my ear to the ground.



09 Aug 2017 19:38:57
Sorry. Oliviera! 😊.



09 Aug 2017 19:46:57
He'll be back at Christmas and making a contribution to promotion.



10 Aug 2017 11:58:06
I wonder. His arrival was a surprise, not being especially young, and his development seems slow. But they see something in him, so yes, could well be first choice striker before the end of the season.

We also have Paul Gladon on our books. Who knows, he might have put 20 away before Christmas.

Haha good oneπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚.



09 Aug 2017 16:19:26
Still running down blind alleys looking for a striker.
We should have had one in place by now
Gray was obviously out of our price range.
Would go for Oliveiro now.



09 Aug 2017 16:15:45
Cheers ed lol, that was my picture I sent through.



{Ed033's Note - Good photoshop

09 Aug 2017 17:36:26
Whaaaaaatttt! That pics a fake? πŸ˜ͺπŸ˜ͺπŸ˜ͺ.



09 Aug 2017 18:36:14
Realist I disagree Gray was out of our price range, just he simply wants premier league football. However I do agree we should now make Oliveira our prime target. Feel he could do just as good a job as Gray πŸ‘.



09 Aug 2017 23:08:06
No PT, wolves insider sent it me before he threw his toys out the pram lol.



09 Aug 2017 13:15:47
Ed, can you please repeat the Football Rumours League details. Thanks.

Jas m managers using the cup to try others players is fair enough but when they're not even named on the subs bench and also not injured says everything.
Your comment must mean that oniangue was just being overlooked then as is the case with norwich and oliveira pmsl.
Bullysboy makes a total valid point regarding oliveira. he's one of their main strikers along with jerome yet in two games has played 10 minutes. He was fuming saturday and waved his shirt in the managers face if you watched the highlights of other matches and broaden your horizons a bit more.
By the way sarcasms the lowest form of wit.
Still soares or oliveira for me all day long.



09 Aug 2017 14:33:39
Zyro is one of our main players but he was left out of the squad. Oniangue has been told that he is not part of Nunos plans hence why he wasn't in the squad. Look at what most Premier league clubs do in the early rounds of the cups, they give the youngsters a chance to gain experience as well as giving other squad players game time. Maybe Oliveria was left out of the Norwich squad as their priority is the league. Same as why Ruddy was left out for us and why the likes if Neves and Jota were on the bench.



09 Aug 2017 14:37:09
P. s. I only care about Wolves so I don't care what other players at other clubs are doing unless it effects us.



09 Aug 2017 15:55:29
Zyro isn't good enough Jas.



09 Aug 2017 16:19:41
Ps jas so you won't give a toss when or if we snap up oliveira then lol. In my posts I was only re iterating why its a strong possibility why the striker may be him, which I stated the reasons over a month ago.



09 Aug 2017 16:31:31
I can't see zyro getting much game time at all paul t so agree there mate else surely he would have atleast played some part against yeovil.
As for jas m says everything to me when oliveiras left out the squad. Same as norwich buying a german forward aswell pre season.
client of mendes, will cost less than gray/ afobe/ rhodes, fits into our style of play, fosun being an investment company states that every player they buy ideally becomes an assett to grow the club with.
Some of the players mentioned previous have no value in any future market only a loss.
Thats facts not fiction.



09 Aug 2017 16:40:43
Out of darkness, it seems you have a problem with me just because I stated that because a player wasn't in another teams squad, doesn't necessarily mean he's leaving them. I'm just pointing out that Ruddy wasn't in our squad last night but it doesn't mean he's leaving.

PT, you may be right about Zyro but he looked good before his injury and not been given a good chance to get back to the same level as pre season games aren't the same intensity as league and cup football.



09 Aug 2017 16:52:23
Sorry Jas he was average at best in a poor team. Move him on with Batth Edwards Mason and Price, we are lookin to build a promotion squad and their not good enough.



09 Aug 2017 16:56:23
No jas m I haven't got a problem with yourself or anyone else on here at all mate. I agree that loads of players are left out for various reasons just that the aformentioned player there seems to be a lot of reasons why he probably will be sold. Just hope its to us and not reading that's all mate.
You also post some valid points at times which are enjoyable to read along with some others that post up.
OUT OF DARKNESS/ COMETH LIGHT
Down in sandwell they're full of shite lol.



09 Aug 2017 16:59:31
Oh in that case I've heard Zyro is being sold this week. Seems Nuno very stupidly gave him game time in pre season to integrate him back into the squad just so he could sell him on. After all, why else was he left out the squad. Being left out if a squad does not mean anything. Managers have a squad of 25 but can only name 18 on a match day. Oliveria may be joining us but bearing in mind he's just come back from an injury, hence why he started on the bench on Saturday. The reason for the clash was because he said he was fit but the manager didn't think he was ready to start.



09 Aug 2017 17:14:20
Norwich manager said after the game on Saturday that he doesn't have a problem with Oliveria and he can't do without him in his team.



09 Aug 2017 17:16:03
PT, 3 goals in 7 games ain't bad for a winger. We should retain him in the squad.



09 Aug 2017 17:41:04
Won't convince me Jas imo nowhere near good enough for a promotion challenging team.



09 Aug 2017 17:49:07
How can anyone say zyro isn't good enough from the 7 games I saw him play and the 3 goals he scored I think he's plenty good enough no need to try and bin players for the sake of it.



10 Aug 2017 12:02:49
Zyro is an unknown quantity. Maybe he's now eclipsed by Jota and the other arrivals but as players' fortunes come and go he could well rise to the top of the pack. Remember Cav was rubbish at the end of last season now he's on form again. Zyro has hardly played for over a year and could well yet force his way into the team, like Graham and Dicko did after their injuries.



09 Aug 2017 09:06:14
If Gray is going to Watford what about Troy Deeny. Very capable and a west midlands boy.



09 Aug 2017 09:23:59
Is he worth the Β£25m Watford want. I don't personally think so.



{Ed047's Note - All because they want dont mean they will get it buddy. Must say im surprised Gray is going to Watford i really thought Wolves had a real chance.}

09 Aug 2017 09:49:10
Gray to Watford 18.5 mill. Shame, I thought he could've done a great job for us? βš½οΈπŸ‘πŸ˜‰.



09 Aug 2017 09:52:01
Don't think wolves really followed any interest in him up once was made clear a price near Β£20m would have be paid feel wolves didn't think it was value for money.



09 Aug 2017 10:17:14
Sky r reporting its 11.5 mil for Gray? Surely we can match that,



{Ed047's Note - The fee is irrelevant buddy.}

09 Aug 2017 10:35:46
Possibly Ed, but he would guarantee goals!



{Ed047's Note - Wolves still need a striker who can score them at least 18+ goals in the league for me.}

09 Aug 2017 10:45:30
That's what I'm on about Ed, that's why I'd of gone all out for Gray! Goals guaranteed! The striker position is the only thing stoppin us getting promotion this season.



{Ed047's Note - Exactly im sure Wolves will bring in a Striker weather that be a permanent or loan.}

09 Aug 2017 13:07:57
Anyone know 100% that we were actually in for Gray or using us to get a prem move? Big no thanks to deeney he is an utter a******e and one of the few players I cannot stand. Would sooner take Afobe back. I'll stand by for Ulf kissing his a**e again πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚.



08 Aug 2017 23:39:01
If tonight's match didn't single out how much we need a striker then Nuno and crew must be watching a different game to us fans. it's so blatantly obvious even my Mrs said about it. striker please please please.



09 Aug 2017 10:41:36
What about the Luton front line?
