26 Jul 2016 22:16:14
Thomas Lemar is having a medical ahead of a £10m move. A picture of him with his entourage has been doing the rounds today.



26 Jul 2016 22:29:03
Doubt it but it would be good if we got him. Its another young player with no experience in english football so he could be another flop like a load of other guys. I would welcome him as £10 million is now pennies to the chinkies.



26 Jul 2016 22:33:27
Pictures where? He's a 40m player!



26 Jul 2016 22:38:16
This can't be right.



26 Jul 2016 22:39:58
On twitter mate.



26 Jul 2016 22:42:30
Reported on Twitter by French press and a bit of a dodgy pic from about a mile away. We are being associated with Everyman and his dog at the moment so wil wait and see. Vids of him look promising and looks like a better left foot than Sako but £10 mil I'm not sure.



26 Jul 2016 22:49:15
He can take a corner, unlike Harry kane.



26 Jul 2016 22:57:12
According to the express Liverpool rumoured to be signing him for £58 million. These rumours are getting ridiculous. Saying that he's probably better than saville!



26 Jul 2016 23:08:49
Think you might read that wrong it was reported in May that Liverpool would meet Monaco's £10 million valuation probably the Express exaggerating again.



26 Jul 2016 23:36:25
Yes I saw Liverpool 58m.



26 Jul 2016 23:37:15
The picture your on about is Pele.



26 Jul 2016 23:57:56
No, the £58 million was alluding to what Man Utd paid for Martial. Thomas Lemar has only a £10 million fee slapped on his head so easily affordable for Shi.



27 Jul 2016 04:55:11
Let's hope so then. Looks to have had a decent first season at Monaco for such a young kid. Perhaps we'll sell him for £58 million in a couple of years!



27 Jul 2016 07:35:52
Have seen the Lemar photo, so can confirm he was there yesterday.



27 Jul 2016 09:44:14
Not sure if it works but the picture.



26 Jul 2016 21:30:32
Rumour going around that Leigh Griffiths is rejoining Wolves. If true, he'd certainly score goals for us again!



26 Jul 2016 22:23:45
No thanks he is a thug and trouble.



27 Jul 2016 06:27:25
Didn't he leave because family ties in Scotland ( kids) couldn't wait get back north and he not exactly struggling to play or score so prob either had minor injury or came watch someone play last night know Celtic in competition against Barcelona ( they at St George's park ) not sure where game to be played.



26 Jul 2016 20:19:12
Harold Beautyman of Northampton our "marquee" signing. A proven goalscorer.



26 Jul 2016 21:39:06
He's a central midfielder who they keep loaning out - scored 5 goals in 35 games for Peterborough last season (so not exactly prolific! )



26 Jul 2016 20:09:41
Wolves looking to bring back hassan kachoul silas Stefano miahoffer and frankouskski up the wolves lol.



26 Jul 2016 20:01:03
We need two signings by Saturday please sign quality. helda costa looks no better than rvlp . carvalio looks good so does ola john.



26 Jul 2016 20:14:31
Chill out mate, Big Jeff and Mendes are sortin things now, not Morgan and Moxey. We will be sound 👍.



26 Jul 2016 21:36:40
Has kenny gone as you posted?



27 Jul 2016 10:38:10
I think they let him make the tea as transfers team selection and tactics won't have anything to do with him, when these other players come in. He's basically redundant.



26 Jul 2016 18:13:17
Apparently Wolves linked with Rafael Van Der Vaart, not fussed if we get him or not if I'm honest, just a name to sell shirts.



26 Jul 2016 18:21:09
I wouldn't, it would be a waste of time and money.



26 Jul 2016 18:50:26
Good player, but 33 now. Could be useful for a season if they are going for it. Would not cost much.



26 Jul 2016 18:54:09
Yes seen it on twitter wolves and reading after Rafael van de vart would be a quality signing.



26 Jul 2016 18:58:24
If he could chip in with a couple of goals over the course of the season, fantastic.



26 Jul 2016 19:25:08
Would be great to have someone that can put in a corner or take a free kick. Something we really missed last season.



26 Jul 2016 19:35:00
Defo Dot, excellent at set piece deliveries and he's a match winner, that would be a statement and could pave the way for other we'll known players to come to us.



26 Jul 2016 17:56:15
As I told you all earlier.4 players were being picked up from Manchester airport. it was actually Helder Costa and his 3 representatives.



26 Jul 2016 18:14:42
Right. his agent. his wife. who was tother one?



27 Jul 2016 07:17:40
We seriously signing a player with 3 representatives?



26 Jul 2016 16:54:19
McDonald just been back to training ground to collect last few items, he met Silvio and pele while he was there, confirmation tonight!



26 Jul 2016 18:14:53
Doubt there'll be anything tonight, tomorrow or Thursday more likely.



26 Jul 2016 18:55:23
Could it have been for medicals?



26 Jul 2016 16:07:07
Byrne and Coady have been put on the transfer list. QPR interested in Coady.



26 Jul 2016 16:11:41
Where did you see this report?



26 Jul 2016 16:29:00
Why has Savile survived?



26 Jul 2016 16:30:31
Seen it lol, didn't JACKETT make coady captain the other game? Just shows JACKETT has no control of transfers now! Caretaker coach at best! The Futures Bright The Future Big Jeff! 👍.



26 Jul 2016 16:46:49
Hope they got a lot of signings lined up. Its no good only bringing in 8 players if they sell 8.



26 Jul 2016 16:58:45
Coady not good enough. Pleased he's going.



26 Jul 2016 17:02:12
I'd be happy to see the back of Coady. I think he's very average. At least Saville knows where the goal is. Without MacDonald it's going to be Evans and Price as the two CDMs with Saville or Edwards in the ACM role at the moment. Hardly going to leave Rotherham quaking in their boots.



26 Jul 2016 17:19:27
I'm amazed Evans hasn't gone to Bradford permanently. There's little here for him.



26 Jul 2016 17:29:23
Happy days, I know we haven't had any incoming players yet but I'm sure there will be enough new players but I'm also happy to see the back of Coady who reminded me of Forrest Gump (" I just keep on runnin") with no end product

Byrne annoyed me too cause he's quick but doesn't apply his attributed properly or he just plain simply has poor control and cannot cross the ball

I like what's happening cause these players are useless and if we are recognising this then I'm excited to see the better players to arrive.



26 Jul 2016 17:33:16
I would only keep Ikeme, Dicko and Graham end of the rest can go to league 1, I would shake Dave Edwards hand for his efforts cause when he has played well I've enjoyed watching his Lampardesk bursts in to the box from midfield and finishing off a good move or being in the right place at the right time to score a vital goal.



26 Jul 2016 17:33:45
I may have just talked myself in to keeping Edwards in the squad lmao.



26 Jul 2016 18:16:06
You wouldn't keep Hause or Iorfa Goldfinger?

We have to not get to carried away that just because someone may have a fancier name than that of their English counterparts it doesn't mean they're all going to be world beaters. I have a good feeling about a few of them but for every John De Wolf there is a Silas.

We need to strike a balance of signing good players from abroad with proven experience in this country. Pritchard for me would be a great signing as already proved he's excellent in the championship. Derby wouldn't sell to us but Jeff Hendrick would also be someone i'd go for, try and send a big statement out by signing a rivals player.



26 Jul 2016 18:16:28
Agree re Coady to a point, but to be fair he was bought as a midfielder with a good shot - he's played right back and centre half a fee times!
Like you say we should be aiming for better - but please, foreign doesn't mean better every time!



26 Jul 2016 18:23:50
Hopefully Henry leaves too!



26 Jul 2016 18:54:43
Oh yes in my excitement I forgot about Hause and Iorfa lol.



26 Jul 2016 18:55:05
That's it tho no more haha.



26 Jul 2016 19:07:39
Also agree Pritchard is an excellent young player that we should snap up before our rivals do along with Bamford

Rashford on loan - maybe Mendes can have a word with Mourinho

With the foreign players coming from a club like Benfica they are going to be good enough for the Championship and they will have some nice skills which for a change will be easy on the eye.



26 Jul 2016 19:27:45
Id add Wallace to that list of keepers too.



26 Jul 2016 15:59:24
Newcastle sheff wed and qpr after Conor coady for 2 million?



26 Jul 2016 16:19:57
We'll never get rid of them that easily.



26 Jul 2016 16:25:02
He isn't good enough, liability, hot headed and always likely to receive a card, let him go but not until we have bolstered the squad, Saville, Byrne in the same catagory.



{Ed001's Note - is it him who is not good enough or the way he was used? He was one of the best players in the Championship at Huddersfield. Though he certainly can be hot headed.}

26 Jul 2016 17:05:21
If he bulked up and learnt to take a set piece he'd be a good player, but That all comes down to the way your are used. We saw glimpses of what he could do, at the start of the season and towards the end.



26 Jul 2016 17:08:08
Well said ed.



26 Jul 2016 17:10:21
Ed - if he was one of the best players in the Championship, why didn't Huddersfield fans care that he was leaving? They seemed to label him inconsistent and overrated if I remember correctly. Ofcourse, he played a blinder against us, and scored a great effort.



{Ed001's Note - did they? Not the ones I spoke to, they were gutted, as were the coaching staff.}

26 Jul 2016 17:12:37
Ed it's down to the way Jackett used him, for some reason he likes playing blokes out of position?



26 Jul 2016 19:07:27
In my opinion, Coady must have a clone with more talent if he was once considered one of the best players in the Championship. He runs around like a headless chicken but is slow and has poor distribution. In no way does he have the quality needed if we are to get out of this league in the right direction.



26 Jul 2016 15:35:54
Wolves want Bamford.



26 Jul 2016 12:44:32
We could get Anderson Talisca over Liverpool according to Bleacher Report.

goo.gl/L5ApGx



26 Jul 2016 12:54:21
He could come to us because it can be harder to get a work permit for prem apparently.



26 Jul 2016 13:25:32
My agent mate says that his first choice is Liverpool and in his opinion is majorly overpriced if the £20mil price tag is to be believed. Don't know anything about him myself.



26 Jul 2016 13:37:28
Wouldn't imagine Benfica would want to sell as they have already lost Renato Sanches to Bayern, may be why his price tag is hugely over inflated. He would probably have a deal in place with Mendes that he plays 90% of the games to get his work permit sorted for the PL and bugger off to Liverpool at the earliest opportunity.



26 Jul 2016 14:08:44
Armitage cow don't you meen you just read the attachment posted by Wolf27. Your comment is nearly word for word in the artical.
Agent mate my a**e.



26 Jul 2016 14:11:40
Do Liverpool really want him according to Bleacher report?



26 Jul 2016 14:12:49
Pompey, if we could get him at a slighty cheaper price why not use him then sell for a profit if he produces the goods. I would rather have one good season out of the guy than miss out all together but the asking price seems very inflated given some of the uncertanty regarding his ability to perform at the top level.



26 Jul 2016 14:16:33
You are right Spanish of course if he could perform and we could get the price reduced, I just don't think we should pay of the odds for someone who is used to playing tippy tappy football and not the kick bollock and bite of the english championship. Apart from Ronaldo I can't think of any Portuguese players who have made it in the english league.



26 Jul 2016 14:49:56
Ooooh Spanish Wolf got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning. You don't have to believe me just saying what I've been told.



26 Jul 2016 14:52:48
Agree with you Spanish! What I don't want to happen is to pay out big money on someone who is used to playing slow tippy tappy football. You know what our division is like and he will have been booted up in the air within the first 2 mins. If this happens week in week out we would have shelled out £20m on someone who hides every match. Apart from Ronaldo I can't think of any Portuguese players who have done well in the English game.



26 Jul 2016 15:00:19
I'd prefer Sako back.



26 Jul 2016 15:22:35
Carvalio at Chelsea Pompey gave it a good shot but agree Portugese players in UK don't appear strongly.



26 Jul 2016 16:11:41
Jose Fonte, another good Portuguese player.



26 Jul 2016 17:12:08
Fonte was average at best for crystal palace prior to signing for Southampton tho.



26 Jul 2016 19:38:19
Most of you need to Google it then, there's dozens of good Portuguese players who've played in the prem. Raul Merielles, Deco, Bosingwa etc if they're good enough to win honours, then they're good enough for the league.



26 Jul 2016 09:34:41
Wolves want Pritchard!



26 Jul 2016 10:13:53
Not good enough! Typical Jackett low profile signing, which won't get us out of the Champ! This is the reason the bloke and Therwell have to go in the not too distant future! Their transfer policy and the new owners policies are miles apart!



26 Jul 2016 10:26:53
Rusko I don't know what your on about mate Pritchard would be a great signing he bossed it for Brentford when he was on loan there and was unlucky with injuries last season as he was going to be in and around the spurs team until he got injured beginning of the season.



26 Jul 2016 10:28:08
I agree. You're going to see some rubbish coming in soon. Let's not forget Chris Wood!



26 Jul 2016 10:32:55
Apparently Talisca is definitely going to Liverpool or Wolves this season with Liverpool getting itchy feet over the £21 million asking price.



26 Jul 2016 10:39:13
I think Pritchard would be a fantastic addition to the tem, quality passing midfielder with good vision and likes a tackle. I think we should give Kenny a chance to see what he can do now we don't have to be a selling club. If he doesn't make the grade then get rid but I think Therwell has to go now. We don't need a head of recruitment and we should leave it to the manager instead of jackett, therwell and now mendes all getting involved.



26 Jul 2016 10:43:26
And we still want B Carvalho Silver, a midfielder from Monaco for big money.



26 Jul 2016 10:50:12
Rusko throw some players into the hat what you expect please. Pritchard not good enough lol .



26 Jul 2016 10:52:06
Jackett and Kevin won't have a say in signings it's mendes sorting them out.



26 Jul 2016 11:03:14
Would be happy with Pritchard, wouldn't mind us looking at Alan Judge, great were looking at all these benfica players and other players around europe but we do need some players with championship experience. Exciting times!



26 Jul 2016 11:10:33
Agree wolves king. We have kept KJ in the short term, mendes will pull the strings with transfers not those within the club.



26 Jul 2016 11:36:52
No way is Kenny deciding on transfers. Kenny is still here because the Spanish coach took the Spain national side job. Full credit to our new owners, they will take their time in finding our new permanent coach. Kenny is caretaker coach.



26 Jul 2016 11:57:51
Newcastle are favourites to sign pritchard currently. Hope we will get a decent left winger and left back. Ola John looks like a good signing if Mendes can pull it off. WOnder if we will go back in for Sylla now the takeover is completed. I wouldn't mind seeing James Forrest from Celtic on the wing and he has been linked to leave Celtic.



26 Jul 2016 12:01:59
Wendesfield Wolf. If you look on an earlier feed you will see my wish list. Just for you I will post it again -

Mowatt - Midfielder - Leeds
Murphy - Midfielder - Leeds
Sako - Left Midfielder - Palace
Dunk - CH - Brighton
Duffy - CH - Blackburn
Davies - LB - Spurs
Wilson - Striker - Man Utd
Campbell - Striker - Arsenal

Now, add these to the squad and we would definitely be promoted.



26 Jul 2016 12:20:48
Ola John will be Wolves first signing.



26 Jul 2016 14:07:14
Rusko, have you actually seen Pritchard play?!? He's a class above any CM we currently have!



26 Jul 2016 14:30:50
Pritchard has been a target before in loan market. Really good in this division and young enough to develop lop further. Would be on of my top targets. Outstanding for England U21 and the link we have there might just be a factor if he has other options as I am sure he will have.



26 Jul 2016 14:37:42
Lincs-wolf if Pritchard is as good as you make out, why aren't Spurs renewing his contract? I haven't seen any Prem Clubs queuing up to sign him either. Sorry in my opinion, not good enough.



26 Jul 2016 15:10:00
Rusko probably because Spurs already have Dembele, Eriksson, Alli, Mason, Wanyama all ahead of him. Swansea and the Baggies are both interested in him and they are in the Prem! Also Newcastle and Norwich are looking at him so it just proves he has a quality. Think he is a much better option than Jimmy Saville and Katy Price that we have in midfield!



26 Jul 2016 17:12:06
PompeyWolf he was on loan at WBA last season and played 70 mins. Now tell me if he's good if he can't start for those lot! Don't go on his Brentford form, as Saville was a revelation there a couple of seasons back.



26 Jul 2016 17:38:57
Rusko saville was a revelation there when he was in league one the same season we were in it. Pritchard was a revaltion in the championship two seasons ago for them. Anytime I've seen him play his got some quality and as concerns for west bro he had missed most the season from a knee injury and wasn't fully fit so can't judge him from a loan move when he wasn't fully fit. Also going back to your original comment which was won't get us out the championship when his proved himself in the championship and now your throwing round comments about premiership teams and spurs not wanting him. Well I'm pretty sure spurs don't need him to get out the championship so your comments contradict. Just saying.
