Sky Sports said deal for Benfica captain is all but done.



16 Aug 2016 21:45:04
Where is this?



16 Aug 2016 21:56:37
On sly sports transfer centre.



16 Aug 2016 22:00:09
After they showed the missed penalty for wolves he mentioned about the luisao deal.



16 Aug 2016 22:02:20
He said it when he was reporting on the wolves game.



16 Aug 2016 22:10:07
It was during the game. The reporter said we are hearing that a deal is all but done for him.



16 Aug 2016 22:15:33
Ah, cheers! Great news!



17 Aug 2016 08:45:30
First time to site, but worth a look at taliscas Facebook page, link to news him joining us posted in last 8hrs. Looks promising and after last night in much needed help for attacking reinforcements!



17 Aug 2016 17:48:19
Where is he probs having a medical a day. another player who is finnished.



16 Aug 2016 14:01:23
Wolverhampton Wanderers have launched a £5million bid for Anderlecht striker Idrissa Sylla as the Championship club look to strengthen ahead of the transfer window closing.



16 Aug 2016 14:31:32
Its in the daily Mail.



16 Aug 2016 14:58:20
Reading what Anderlecht fans think, they say he's worth £1 million max, nowhere near £5 million. They don't rate him at all and smacks of a Jackett signing to me to go along with Mason and co. Please withdraw this one, Jeff 'cos you'll regret it.



16 Aug 2016 15:31:03
Are there any players you like Wavid. I've never met anyone so negative in all my life. Get a grip.



16 Aug 2016 15:34:28
Mason as scored 2 should have 4 by now?



16 Aug 2016 15:49:02
Before the takeover we were linked with sylla and we may have signed him 4 roughly 2mill this is not one of there best moves surely there must b somebody else out there anderlects own fans don't really rate him.



16 Aug 2016 15:53:44
Have you watched a video of Sylla, Wavid? He looks to have something seldom seen these days - true flair. ( Rather like Waddle) .



16 Aug 2016 16:05:38
Laisua should b signing in couple of days 2yr contract 35thou to 40thou week.



16 Aug 2016 16:25:27
Wavid,

Thelwells old role when Kenny was still around was "Head of Recruitment"

Kenny was "Head Coach"

If you think Kenny had a say in what stock was added to the team you are very much wrong and really don't have a clue as to how things were ran at the club.

Give it up mate and stop posting before you really make a fool of yourself.



16 Aug 2016 16:39:29
True flair, haha. Come on, pull the other one. He looks more like a crane fly stuck in a puddle - all arms and legs with zero touch. I wish I could agree with you about this one, lads, but you will see what I mean after the first 2-3 games. Anyone can look good on a video (if you can call those tap in's impressive) . Don't be so naive, it's what the fans think that's the important part.

If you read what others said about Dadi, Tex, Costa, Onion etc, they all came with a glowing reference from their own fans, but this one is the complete opposite. Do your own research on him and you'll see what I mean. This bid is up there with the funniest of recent times, up there with the likes of the £4m Chris Wood bid last season or the £3.5m Mason transfer. We can do much better than go with a Therwell choice straight from the Jackett book of mediocrity, lads. I thought those days had gone?



16 Aug 2016 17:19:42
wavid, think about it - they have made Thelwell head of all football matters so they are confident in his capabilities like it or not. Obviously with more input from mendes, butti and zenga. If we go for any player you need to accept its the wish of all of our ' football' hierarchy and put the past regime behind you.



16 Aug 2016 17:34:22
Wavidsmith. that's why your writing on here and not picking players at the molineux.



16 Aug 2016 17:57:35
On the other hand, I feel REALLY good about B Bjarnason. We HAVE to put a good bid in for him, he has a really strong pedigree and hope that reports are correct about Zenga and his scouts really taking a shine to him.

I think this is partly why I was so mad about wasting £5m. I don't like the best ones getting away, that's all.



16 Aug 2016 18:03:22
And tescos said bully will never make it.



16 Aug 2016 18:17:25
wavidsmith - "Don't be so naive, it's what the fans think that's the important part. "

You call someone naive and then retort with a moot point.

It doesn't matter what the fans think about player a, b or c. The Club are doing their business and making their own decisions.

If they listened to people like you then I could safely bet my testicles Wolves would have been flushed down the toilet with the rest of you.



17 Aug 2016 00:24:47
I do not believe the Sylla link. We were supposedly lining him up for £2.3m only a month ago when Morgan, Moxey and Jackett were in charge. Can't see that the new regime would want someone of his level now and certainly not at more than double the price.



16 Aug 2016 13:07:55
Has any one else heard about this adel taarabt rumour saw it on twitter say we will announce the signing of him in the next few days but can't see that happening honestly.



16 Aug 2016 14:08:17
Yea people were talking about it a 3 or 4 weeks ago, don't think there is much in it though.



16 Aug 2016 14:17:09
I hope it doesn't happen, he's always had problems with his weight and even if we were to sign him, he wouldn't get a game above talisca or teixera.



16 Aug 2016 14:32:19
he is an over rated trouble maker.



16 Aug 2016 12:52:53
Wolves have put in 5 million pounds to secure Idrissa Sylla before the transfer window ends.



16 Aug 2016 13:03:20
this guy would be a great signing skilful good passing and top goals to game ratio 196 games 112 goals

UP the Guinean Waddle!



16 Aug 2016 13:21:10
I can't wait until the last day/ night of the transfer window I think it's going to be exciting 😮.



16 Aug 2016 13:25:47
His goal record rubbish isn't that the same player we was close to signing for 2.4m.



16 Aug 2016 13:29:35
I'm not sure what the other guy was talking about, his goal ratio is awful so I presumed him to be a winger. It is the same player we are bidding £2.5m more for. Sako would have been a better bet with Palace trying to get Benteke today.



16 Aug 2016 13:45:50
I remember everyone caining Tex before he signed saying it wasn't the one from Liverpool and he is crap, never played for the first team etc. He has played 1 game for us and 1 appearance from the bench and suddenly everyone is raving about what a brilliant signing he was! Give people a chance to play before making judgement!



16 Aug 2016 14:34:28
Spot on pompeywolf, I was telling people this at the time, and they kept saying youve got the wrong one. do your homework peeps.



16 Aug 2016 14:52:59
That stat of 112 goals in 196 games in the mail I presume to be a load of rubbish. This guy scores in every 3 games (if you're lucky) . Not exactly prolific but I presume is to be bought for knockdowns into the onrushing Dicko and Dadi.



16 Aug 2016 15:12:55
No, unfortunately Wolves really have cocked this one up. Just read about what Sylla's own fans think - they can't wait to get rid of him. £5m is daylight robbery. I really hope it doesn't go through, the man barely scores 1 in 4 and looks like a total liability. Don't go with what I think, read their comments. To go from Martin, Sako, the Icelandic chap, to this guy is the biggest cock up in history. He must have a very good agent, is all I can say.



16 Aug 2016 15:39:35
Don't forget that we need a good squad of around 23-25 players

If we have injuries like last season having at least one good replacement is the minimum requirement so this signing wouldn't be a bad one

I think if we get players like Sylla that can be versatile we should see players like Henry / Wallace / Edwards / Evans demoted or shown the door

Before Dadi we were struggling for forwards with Dicko out and just Mason and the Academy kids as back up

Reinforcements are needed and must be a case of get what quality we can at the moment

Once we get promoted to the Prem we will be targeting better quality players but at the same time these players might perform great for us like Dadi and Tex so far and I've got a feeling we've got a really good player in Prince Oniangue.



16 Aug 2016 16:04:14
You don't seem to understand Sylla isn't any better than Mason or any other player we have on the bench. I'm not being negative as I think the new signings have been amazing so far, I just don't like seeing the club waste money like that. I always go on what their own fans think and, if this one is anything to go by, all I can see is a player in the Sagbo mould. You know yourself if a transfer will work and with this one, I have the same old Mason or Chris Woods type of feeling. Oniangué, on the other hand, looks a bargain.



16 Aug 2016 10:34:47
Looks like we're in for Luisao that would be an amazing signing to add to Oniangue, Texiera, Bod, Silvio and Costa and who knows Talisca, Buttner and Bjarnesson too. Hard to believe we are really looking at Chris Martin and other Championship standard players.



16 Aug 2016 11:57:02
Luisao will b an excellent signing he's strong quick and will add a wealth of experience 2 our young defence.



16 Aug 2016 13:01:56
He's 35 and not that quick anymore- still better than what we've got tho.



16 Aug 2016 13:30:10
Hp his not fast you jokin pal.



16 Aug 2016 15:21:16
How many players do you know that faster at 35? Big, strong, good in the air and has a hell of a shot on him.



16 Aug 2016 15:56:22
U can still b quick at 35 I'm not saying he's lightening.



16 Aug 2016 17:04:07
If Man U can sign Ibrahimavic then we can sign Luisao remember this is partly about selling footy in China and players with pedigree will be good for revenues.



16 Aug 2016 10:30:54
luisao signed on two year contact

(I only talk about facts)



16 Aug 2016 12:17:36
I only want any evidence to back up your facts.



17 Aug 2016 09:02:47
My team is

Ikeme
Silvio Batth Luisao buttner

Sako Talisca Texiera

Dicko Bodvarsson Bjarn.



16 Aug 2016 02:10:50
Wolves will sign benfica captain and brazil international Luisao from benfica. Very experienced CB.



16 Aug 2016 06:59:21
Says who?



16 Aug 2016 08:29:06
Portuguese press again saying he's signing with talisca.



16 Aug 2016 08:46:14
Talisca is already discussing with Wolverhampton maturity that will in England. Although the transfer is still trapped by bureaucratic issues, yet Benfica player was allowed to discuss salary issues with the emblem of the Championship, so that the business can be quickly completed barely there green light by the English Association (FA) .

According to A Bola, the process is being led by businessman Jorge Mendes, and the next player source explained that the FA has indicated the departure of the United Kingdom of the European Union as one of the reasons that are delaying the release of the authorization.

Benfica, in partnership with Gestifute, has been in contact with other clubs, and there are alternatives if the FA does not release the time the work permit.



16 Aug 2016 08:55:27
Signing this sometime this week apparently.



16 Aug 2016 09:04:45
Hope this is true, we need an experienced defender but how brave will Zenga be, who will he keep out of Batth and Iorfa?
I'd keep Iorfa at CB and Coady RB and bring Luisão in, we will be looking good with the following starting 11:

Ikeme
Coady Iorfa Luisão Doc

Edwards Oniangue Texeria

Mason Dadi Dicko.



16 Aug 2016 08:26:05
A couple of Portuguese papers
Central defender, Luisao to leave Benfica for Wolverhampton Wanderers

goo.gl/71fydf



16 Aug 2016 09:26:13
Luisao would add some much needed experience. Put him alongside Iorfa or Hause so we still have some pace at the back.

Still need to address the LB position

Wolves Ultimate Team:

Ikeme

Doc Iorfa Luisao Buttner

Tex Oniangue Talisca

Dicko Dadi Costa.



16 Aug 2016 10:01:38
The united kingdom has not left the european union yet. we have only voted to leave. as of today 16.8.2016 we are still in europe.



16 Aug 2016 10:04:38
Or a starting 11 of:

Ikeme

Doc Iorfa Luisão Silvio

Texeria Oniangue Bjarnason Costa

Dadi Talisca.



16 Aug 2016 10:21:41
If Ikeme survives all this change, I will be amazed.



16 Aug 2016 10:24:12
Wheres the british players in line up. I like being linked with good players from abroad but can't we spend alittle more on some english player?



16 Aug 2016 10:25:54
Respect to Coady for filling in LB but we can do better

Victory V your team looks rather exotic apart from Doc.



16 Aug 2016 10:26:50
I'm pretty sure Brazil isn't in Europe.



16 Aug 2016 10:56:29
Guys, what about Scholl my mate who is a passionate Leeds fan has said that they have pulled out of the race.

My Ultimate Wolves side:
Lonegan
Scholl Iorfa lusaco Doc
Talisca texiara prince
Dicko bodvarsson costa.



16 Aug 2016 11:06:40
Blimey - will there be anybody left at Benfica for their season?



16 Aug 2016 10:30:23
And a very strong bench.



16 Aug 2016 10:43:33
Might as well buy hart at this stage

Hart
Silvio Iorfa Luisao butter

Bjarnason Oniangue
Talisca
Costa. Texeria
Dadi
Subs: ikeme doc dicko Edwards batth price Henry.



16 Aug 2016 11:10:38
Forgive me if i'm wrong, but the players he wants seem to point to a continental 3-5-2;

Ikeme
Silvio Luisao Buttner
Oniangue Teixeira
Bodvarsson (Zyro) Talisca Bjarnason (Graham)
Martin Dicko

Subs;
Docherty, Iorfa, Hause, Coady, Edwards, Wallace, Mason.



16 Aug 2016 12:56:04
433
Ikeme
Silvio-Luisao-Iorfa-Doherty
Teixeria-Prince-Coady
Dicko-Dadi-Talisca
That team could well win the championship, anyone missing the chuckle brothers yet?



16 Aug 2016 15:50:25
The E. U issue could be because Talisca is having a contract that will take him past the date we leave the E. U. The Brazilians have an agreement with the E. U to allow players easy access to the E. U, but the U. K still has to set up a trade agreement with Brazil. It was predicted that the U. K would have problems getting players if we left the E. U.



16 Aug 2016 17:07:11
Don't think that's right goggs we are in the EU and the rules won't change until we really Brexit.



16 Aug 2016 19:47:09
Benfica Wolves Aye we!



17 Aug 2016 09:08:04
My ultimate team:

Diego Lopes
Silvio Batth Luisao Iorfa
Talisca Prince Tex
Bod Bjarn Dicko.
