23 Aug 2016 17:20:18
Don't like him.



23 Aug 2016 17:26:14
If the missing link is an overweight, lazy, sulking has-been then definately.



23 Aug 2016 17:42:00
He speaks very highly of you Knight :-)



23 Aug 2016 17:56:01
Also he isn't a striker he is an attacking midfielder.



23 Aug 2016 18:15:07
Just like Afobe.



23 Aug 2016 19:58:54
Another Balotelli, no thanks he's talented but all about himself. A waste of talent!



23 Aug 2016 20:46:31
Romain at tonight's game looks like he could be signings soon.



23 Aug 2016 23:16:52
No way to adel taarabt. so lazy and carries a King Edward on his shoulder. Rather have ravel Morrison he might have a attitude at times but he did do the Buisness on the pitch.



23 Aug 2016 23:22:02
Excellent, excellent news: Wolves in for Bjarnason. I've been saying either him or Alberto is needed to finish the midfield off. The only problem is that Burnley want him also. The fee is around £5 million.



24 Aug 2016 09:06:01
If we're serious about anything, we should be able to beat Burnley to player. They're certs for relegation.



24 Aug 2016 10:39:42
If we get all Mawson, Bjarnason AND Rhodes (or similar), this would surely make us one of the favourites for promotion? Amazing, amazing times.



24 Aug 2016 10:46:32
Now, I ain't no academic, but Norwich have only gone and bought Nelson Oliveira from Benfica! Surely this can only only mean one thing for us JORDAN RHODES?



24 Aug 2016 12:43:21
Boro boss on Sky said yesterday that Rhodes needs to stay and fight for his place. Don't know who has all the aces in this game?



23 Aug 2016 15:22:20
Reports that the Luisao deal is being held up by one party, likely to be Wolves. He would be on 40k/ wk, which is OK for a player of his standard but maybe a bit much for Wolves.



23 Aug 2016 17:12:48
Lol reports sorry no body nos about in house moneys.



23 Aug 2016 23:21:30
I honestly don't believe fosun would be hesitant at paying him 40k so I doubt that's it. But does any1 think this might turn into a talisca saga n end in the same way?



24 Aug 2016 03:58:05
I hear wolves have offered him £35k but he wants £60k .



24 Aug 2016 09:33:38
Deal is now considered to be off (according to reports oversees)



24 Aug 2016 10:24:42
I'm in Portugal at the moment and the Benfica fans saying he's leaving for Wolverhampton? But they also say they thought talisca was a done deal to us to. so who knows. by the way it's bleedin hot here . but all inclusive bar helps 😎.



23 Aug 2016 12:08:18
Interesting how you guys all focus on incoming.
Expect Hause/ Iorfa or both to be gone by next week.



23 Aug 2016 12:18:49
Iorfa won't be, Hause not bothered either way.



23 Aug 2016 12:25:32
I wouldn't want to lose either, they're both already in the England set up but Iorfa is ready for Championship football, Hause is a top League 1 CB or mid table Championship CB but he's not ready for a promotion push this season, maybe next season or the season after he will be a very good defender.



23 Aug 2016 12:36:00
Hope not. We were threadbare on defenders before now. EEL is the most likely to go, if he's fit. A big offer for Iorfa would be hard to resist, but January more likely if he's going I reckon.



23 Aug 2016 12:37:44
Doubt it Odfellows when Zenga has been quoted this morning saying we are short of defenders. We will be getting more in than what goes out in the next week expect fringe players to go not our only centre halves!



23 Aug 2016 12:48:20
You may be right but I believe WZ will want to keep all the current squad and new signings together until January and at that point we may well see 3 or 4 leaving.



23 Aug 2016 13:22:31
O my word guys 4 weeks ago he said out his own mouth 20 to 30 mill in 2 years. so that's the plan to get to prem ps and more if need be. Now bookies saying we fav for jordan and faves for play offs. stay ground guys. thay will sort it out I have no doubt but come on only 4 weeks.



23 Aug 2016 13:58:43
He's clearly on the wind up - don't give him the time of day.



23 Aug 2016 14:23:13
Norwich now favourites for Rhodes, which makes me think it's because Fosun are reticent to pay large transfer fees in the first year. Real shame, as I think he's there for the taking.

We are probably more likely to sign Adel Taarabt, or someone like that, unfortunately.



23 Aug 2016 14:57:54
There goes the family silver. Squeaky bum time for a number of players with all these new signings/ loans. Let's all pray that Jeff will buy all our loan players/ new players as otherwise we'll be in a worse position should we not be promoted this season.



23 Aug 2016 14:59:14
Correct some jealous Tesco.



23 Aug 2016 16:07:36
Let's not forget that if we get promoted some of these players may not be good enough for the premier league, so it is a gamble to sign them on loan but these guys from benfica etc will be itching to sign if we win promotion, they know that's where the money is. We've been stung in the past giving long contracts to good championship players and then stuck with them in the premier league, Mick was good at rewarding mediocre players with 4 year deals (Neil Collins? ) and then thy can't make the step up.



23 Aug 2016 15:31:26
Loanin is the best way, forget extortionate transfer fees, just pay higher wages for better quality loans! If it doesn't work out then let them go back to their parent club and start again. No buyin out contracts or big losses on transfer fees.



23 Aug 2016 17:45:02
Well said PT.



24 Aug 2016 10:10:03
My left foot, the team that stuffed Blues on Saturday did not contain 1 loanee. The only player that wasn't here before Zenga came was Bodvarsson (which was a move instigated by Thelwell) . Why all doom and gloom, Wolves have never been so positive.
Nothing wrong with a loan signing btw it's less risk, just would like to see us splash on a 20 goal a season striker and another CB wouldn't go a miss!



23 Aug 2016 11:23:24
Sky reporting our interest in Jordan Rhodes.



23 Aug 2016 12:04:11
Zenga quote from interview on WOW

“We are still short of defenders and strikers and the club is working very hard"

Does that mean Luisao/ Mawson and Rhodes/ Martin?

Like others have said on here, be happy with Luisao and Rhodes to complete our transfer business this window. Saiss would be a bonus too!



23 Aug 2016 12:47:45
They are reporting striker Adel Taarabt today. Considering he plays in Benfica's B team, don't be surprised at him coming in on loan. Obviously we all want Rhodes but the club are slightly cautious in spending big transfer fees at the moment.



23 Aug 2016 13:00:41
Who are reporting smith mate.



23 Aug 2016 13:59:15
Isn't taarabt a midfielder?



23 Aug 2016 15:03:41
Tarabtt has said he wants to return to France. So no chance him coming here and I think he could upset the work ethic.



23 Aug 2016 15:30:07
Luisao has apparently been waiting to move here but Wolves haven't offered him a contract! Looks like it's us that's having second thoughts about his €2 million wages. Taarabt can play in all forward roles but was predominantly a winger or attacking midfielder.



23 Aug 2016 15:50:09
1877.

I spotted that also.

But more important than that, he said, "the club are working on it for him and he has nothing to do with that side of things, he gets on with running the team"

That gets my pulse raised any day of the week.



23 Aug 2016 01:56:23
Arouna Kone, season long loan from Everton. Not part of Ronald Koeman's plans with Bolasie Barkley Deulofeu and Lukaku leading the line.



23 Aug 2016 07:23:16
We can't do any more loans.



23 Aug 2016 07:42:30
We can have seven loans players but only 5 in a matchday squad.



23 Aug 2016 07:43:50
Hi you can have as many loans as you like but only 5 can be named in the match squad.



23 Aug 2016 07:46:32
We can certainly have more loans. You just can't play more than 5 in your Match day squad.



23 Aug 2016 07:46:52
Thought you could have as many loans as you want. But only 5 can be in the squad.



23 Aug 2016 07:49:56
Aparently you can Melbourne Wolf the rule states you can only play 5 or name 5 in your squad per game.



23 Aug 2016 08:55:56
Arouna Kone would be a pointless signing, he's rubbish.



23 Aug 2016 09:00:04
Romaine Saisse has one year left on his contract, so he may well be one we buy on contract.



23 Aug 2016 09:19:01
We only have four loans, so we could get one more.



23 Aug 2016 09:34:41
Apologies and thanks guys for correcting the rule on loan numbers versus playing/ named in the match day squad.



23 Aug 2016 09:34:51
I agre why not, as well as Saisse 👍😎👍.



23 Aug 2016 10:37:41
Liverpool looking to loan out Sahko to regain fitness, maybe worth a shout?



{Ed001's Note - nothing to do with fitness, they want rid of him.}

23 Aug 2016 12:15:53
If he's not good enough for Liverpool, he's not good enough for us!
