It is a shame we are in this position again, VP seemed fantastic last season, if we had got signings in early maybe things would have been better in these last 4 games. Unfortunately, as always, VP will take the blame not Jeff, correctly or not. Doesn’t help when it is suggested that VP is happy with the signings and they were his choice. Also, not brilliant to come out complaining that he had only 8 players to work with, realise this is probably the case but very negative even before the game on Saturday. Starting to appear like GON more and more, VP to me looks like he is under pressure and the stress is clear. Win v Leeds is very important, if VP starts with the same 11 and our play is slow at the back we will be lucky to achieve a draw.

I wouldn't believe the 'VP got the players he wanted' mantra given the number of transfer rejections we got this Summer Banksy.

If for whatever reason VP did get replaced at some point this season that would be 6 'Managers' in 5 years so maybe the true reasons lie elsewhere.

Personally, I can't see it because after promoting him to Manager surely Jeff/Fosun must be thinking longer term.

Can we be 100% sure that the players rejected the move to the club or was it just media speculation? We'll never know the truth but all we can do is get behind those that are here at the club.

Absolutely. Get behind VP and the players we have.

Wandering Star a player is going to sign for the club who offers him the best deal/most money.
Wolves were reported to be paying JSL £15k per week and so if that is our benchmark who are we going to attract to the club?
All of the top earners at the club were disposed of in this window and so yes it is likely true that our targets were offered less money than they could achieve at other clubs and so turned us down.
We can get behind them and give them our support but we can’t make championship level players into Premiership level players.

FTP. Remember JSL was unproven in the PL. That contract for 15k was probably an increase from what he had before. His value obviously went up once he scored 14 goals for us last season. He will get a new contract to pay him more now. We are paying Hwang more and getting very little for it. Which is the better option?

Also, I have no problem with his original 15k pay as he is the one who agreed and signed the contract.

Uche was not offered more money to play for Palace. That deal fell apart because of Mendes messing stuff up and trying to line his own pockets causing the player and agent to be upset at wolves. I am sure he has had his hand in other things too so not sure why we still use him.

I will always and forever support our team, all very frustrating as many of us did see this situation coming throughout the summer. Long, you are probably correct with all the constant change of management, problems lie elsewhere. Disappointed, we didn’t have a shot on target 2nd half, sad to say, maybe not, I turned off after 70 mins or so, was hoping things would change. We really do need 3 pts v Leeds, not convinced we will achieve this, hope we do, and if so kick on, thanks all for our ongoing discussions ??

NJ Wolf you didn’t answer the question of who are we going to attract to the club when we are paying less in wages than our competitors?

FTP. We have always paid less that the bigger clubs and I don't expect that to change. We just got several new signees, so why did they sign if we are paying them so little?

Regardless, paying players huge salaries doesn't always work out either. Look at our problems with Fabio, Guedes and others were getting big paychecks and not much to show for it.

I would rather pay players less to start and have them prove themselves and then reward them with bigger paychecks, like we will do w JSL.

WAY too many assumptions made on this site!

JSL was getting paid £15k whilst on loan last season which was a big pay rise on the £9k he had been on at Celta. He is now on a £95k contract!

We don't pay Championship wages. Wolves currently have an annual of £72.4 mil, The best paid club in the Championship last season were Leeds with a per season wage of £59.3m, Leicester are the current highest paid on £41.9m!

Most of what you read in the media is utter tripe, Uche did not go to Palace for more money, he currently gets paid £30k. 5 of our new signings are getting paid more than this!

NJ Wolf I think we need TFIG to let the club know about the economic consequences of relegation and the false economy of paying less wages than our competitors thereby attracting less quality signings some of who may come good and we manage to sell on for a profit and others who fall by the wayside.
This may be the January window when we are too far adrift for our panic buys to make a difference to our league position and a change of head coach would be futile.
The three promoted clubs are looking stronger than the three who were relegated and look like they are up for the challenge.

FTP. We pay Premier wages! We rank 15th for annual wages paid. Do some research!

FTP. Well done for doing some research. Give Me Sport is not a reputable source though, those figures are incorrect but assuming they are correct you've proved your previous comment incorrect, even 19th highest Premier wage is still a Premier league wage!

Give me sport state that Hwang is our highest earner, there are 7 players paid more than him.

Some of our new signings wages are;

Tolu £75k
Aris £65k
Jackson £65k
Krejci £45k
Wolfe £30k
Lopez £25k
