(single word yields best result)

30 Aug 2017 23:28:04
Are we all confident with less than 24hrs to go?

I fear it going to be Hugill, Julan and Mctominay. I hope its Aboubakar and Palhinha with Soares as a bonus.

Keep the faith.



30 Aug 2017 23:47:30
I think that we are going to bring in McTominay by midday tomorrow hopefully tonight and focus on bringing in 1 or 2 strikers tomorrow and with the time remaining try to bring in a backup at left back.



31 Aug 2017 00:33:56
I'd rather us not buy anyone than panic buy and get someone worse than Diko.



31 Aug 2017 00:34:57
Mark Hughes being sacked Thursday. Tony pulis already to return. This is from ITK stoke friend who works there.



31 Aug 2017 09:11:29
Picking up vibes that Aboubakar might actually be back on track. But it looks like we've got notifications of interest in a few players, a couple of which will hopefully come off.



30 Aug 2017 22:17:30
Wolves interest in colback has cooled.



30 Aug 2017 23:07:38
Is debbie mcgee really paul daniels with a new account? He hasn't been present for a while?



30 Aug 2017 21:16:01
Tim Spiers is saying Scott McTominay coming in on loan from United.



{Ed047's Note - Not heard that}.

30 Aug 2017 21:34:31
Wol r close to signing Scott mctominay on loan midfielder.



30 Aug 2017 21:41:05
It's been doing the rounds for a few days Ed 047.



{Ed047's Note - I was told Jose was considering using him this season but time will tell}.

30 Aug 2017 21:51:47
Ed your in for a very busy day tomorrow :) hope we spend the money rather then another loan. There must be the cash floating round to buy outright?



{Ed047's Note - Apparently Wolves are looking at bringing in 2 maybe 3 new players and a Striker is a priority so im sure to be in for a very busy day}.

30 Aug 2017 21:51:49
Hope he isbetter than the last loanee from there, prefer to keep Graham and use Price as saiss backup or even Coady and play Bennet.



30 Aug 2017 21:50:49
I did post that a few days ago.
That's magic!



30 Aug 2017 22:06:48
looks a tidy player.



30 Aug 2017 22:12:21
It's true someone mentioned this the other day edd who was it please.



30 Aug 2017 22:13:01
Just seen that. Talk about grasping at straws. I've said we would panic buy but got cained for it. Well it's happening!



30 Aug 2017 22:14:21
Gilberto sullyovano signing tomorrow.3.5 m euros.



{Ed047's Note - Who the bloody hell is that buddy}.

30 Aug 2017 22:10:00
On his twitter.



30 Aug 2017 22:24:37
It's Gilbert O'Sullivan Ed!



{Ed047's Note - lmfao}.

30 Aug 2017 22:25:57
Wolves in talks with Scott McTominay of Man Utd - story on express and star.


goo.gl/Zf57p



31 Aug 2017 03:02:46
Certainly looks like he could handle some of the stick that our opposition seem to be intent on using since Cardiff. Really hope we get him.



31 Aug 2017 03:04:39
I think he could help combat some of the agro tactics that seems to be our weakness since Cardiff.



30 Aug 2017 20:52:23
Diego costa on loan to us tomorrow sauce bit of brown please bab.



30 Aug 2017 21:17:13
I'm unable to confirm this.



30 Aug 2017 21:19:00
Jack colback not coming wol Newcastle couldn't come to an agreement.



30 Aug 2017 21:24:53
All this transfer speculation doing my head who's signing who's not signing waiting waiting and waiting keep looking nothing so this afternoon took my wife and grandchildren off to cinema and watched captain underpants very good came back home looked again still no signing maybe it will all come good Morro.



30 Aug 2017 22:14:03
Look nobody knows anything on here so get used to it.



30 Aug 2017 22:37:32
There r some fans on here that r spot on with there info there r fans that now something so how can u say that nobody nows anything.



{Ed047's Note - Just remember its a rumours site and should be where people have a bit of fun amongst ourselves}.

30 Aug 2017 20:44:57
Wolves are not signing Colback.



{Ed047's Note - Confirmed by Tim Nash could not reach agreement}.

30 Aug 2017 21:19:54
Personally i think he may have wanted a guaranteed start in which wolves wasnt prepared to give.



30 Aug 2017 23:21:16
I expect he insisted on playing in the light blue strip.



30 Aug 2017 20:39:46
Is Gayle coming? Would out way al the other rumoured strikers. £17m I reckon would get deal over the line.



{Ed047's Note - He is one of many Wolves are looking to bring in}.

30 Aug 2017 20:45:38
Wolves have missed out on NUFC midfielder.



30 Aug 2017 21:01:23
Wanted £70:000 a week LOL.



30 Aug 2017 21:45:40
Colback wanted 70k a week? Haha Deli Alis reportedly not even on that.



30 Aug 2017 22:02:00
He can bugger off then. don't need him. Will get better and he will regret his greediness when he's shipped out to Barnsley!



30 Aug 2017 18:19:20
Couple of agents in the western'trying my bloody hardest to catch a name. they're either switched on or have nothing to do with wolves'which I would find hard to believe considering where they are partaking in grey peas and pints of bitter. teams mentioned, but no players names.?



30 Aug 2017 18:44:39
Keep up the investigation Jimmy!
That's magic!



30 Aug 2017 20:27:59
I've bailed out'had enough bathams to sink a ship, still heard no names mentioned, but clubs I did hear thrown out were Villa, Wigan, Blackburn and Newcastle.?



30 Aug 2017 22:18:29
Massive massive deadline day for us for the past 2 years iv been so underwhelmed cannot wait for this one come on big Jeff work your magic.



30 Aug 2017 22:59:28
Didn't they sold Nathan's down the Great Western now. But anyway the Holdens is spot on.



{Ed047's Note - Is that the old pub by Royal Mail buddy}.

30 Aug 2017 23:02:12
Not Nathans, should be Bathams bloody predictive text. I think I type better when I've been drinking it.



30 Aug 2017 23:37:35
Yeh that's the one Ed on sun St.



{Ed047's Note - I aint been there in a while i use to go there on a Sunday after Darts about half 5ish}.

30 Aug 2017 18:15:24
Wolves have suddenly become favourites to sign big Vincent Aboukakar.



30 Aug 2017 18:38:45
Would be the purchase of the season, hope this happens.



{Ed047's Note - Don't hold your breath the original source it came from is not the most reliable of sources buddy}.

30 Aug 2017 19:47:48
Dont think so the player him self has said he wants to join Marseille.



30 Aug 2017 20:51:35
He is 6/ 4 to join wolves. 8/ 1 to join mairselle. Make you're own mind up.



{Ed047's Note - Odds are irreverent buddy if bookies receive a sustained amount of bets on an event they simply just lower the odds and in turn people assume that something will happen, the bookies never loose buddy}.

30 Aug 2017 21:35:05
Get you're money on mairselle then.!



{Ed047's Note - lmfao}.

30 Aug 2017 16:48:59
You heard it here first we are signing Luciano Vietto from Aletico Madrid. Medical done today. Announced tomorrow.

WinstonWolf.



30 Aug 2017 17:05:38
Winstonwolf you better be right!
Vietto would clean up in this league. If it is true and Mendes had something to do with it then he should get he (mendes) should get the key to the city.



30 Aug 2017 17:07:57
how do you know this, amazing if true.



30 Aug 2017 17:15:30
Yep how do you know this mate hope your right.



30 Aug 2017 17:16:49
From Mercato (Google Translation) -
Olympique de Marseille has fresh competition for Vincent Aboubakar. If OM club multiply (Aboubakar, Mitroglou, Dembélé) tracks, it is also the case of the Cameroonian who has a new key. According to our information, the FC Porto was approached today by Wolverhampton, driven by Nuno Espirito Santo, the previous coach of the Dragões. Nuno had not used Abubakar last season, because he had been loaned to Besiktas Istanbul.



30 Aug 2017 17:19:22
Loan or buying?



30 Aug 2017 17:25:49
Any substance to this rumour or are you trying to out do Paul Daniels.



30 Aug 2017 17:41:09
Not that prolific a striker.



30 Aug 2017 17:47:04
Winston guessing again last couple of weeks he has said soares, julan and oliveria were done deals! He got this from another forum from a bloke who just mentioned his name as a decent player he would like us to sign!



30 Aug 2017 17:49:46
So just to be clear then the striker we are bringing in is

VIETTI

or ABOUBAKHAR
or SOARES
or GAYLE
or AFOBE
or MITROVIC
or RHODES
or BARNES
or WELLS
or CROUCH
or LASOGGO
or MAREGA
or UNCLE TOM COBLEY

Maybe we'll sign the lot of them - well ok maybe not Uncle Tom Cobley (his goals to games ratio is shocking) - and confound everyone by playing with an entire team of strikers?

OODCL.



{Ed047's Note - Haha quality Das, from that list id say Gayle, Rhodes are most likely Soares & Marega a distinct possibility. Who do you want}.

Profiles.



30 Aug 2017 18:05:39
Luciano Vietti from Aletico Madrid wolves have signed him its says on wilki. wolves aye we.



{Ed047's Note - Luciano Vietto is a good player i would be happy if Wolves got him}.

30 Aug 2017 18:08:37
Aboubakar would be my number 1 followed by Soares. Don't see Gayle as much of an upgrade on Dicko and Rhodes was good about 4 years ago but not so now.

By the way forgot Julan from my list!



{Ed047's Note - Gayle will score goals and that will help get promotion. Not seen much of the other 2 but few on here seem to think Luciano Vietto could be incoming which would be very interesting i like him and would be happy if he joined}.

30 Aug 2017 18:13:25
Saying we are back in for Hugill now as everyone is driving up the prices. Really hope Mendes works his magic or we will be lacking up front yet again. Need to get colback over the line too.



30 Aug 2017 18:18:10
Wikipedia anyone can change the data on there!



30 Aug 2017 18:44:17
You forgot Talisca and
Frimpong on your list.



30 Aug 2017 18:57:04
Vietto seems too unrealistic but then so did Jota Neves and Boly.



30 Aug 2017 20:13:05
Assombalonga and Andre gray too.



30 Aug 2017 20:14:01
Missed of list.



30 Aug 2017 20:45:49
I'm struggling to understand why this would be amazing. Scored 1 in 4 in his career. Just because someone plays for Athletico Madrid, doesn't instantly make them a top player. And he's only scored 7 goals in 40 games since 2015.



{Ed047's Note - Total different kettle of fish playing for Madrid compared to Wolves, if and its a big if he comes than id be very confident he will score goals thats will help gain promotion, Vietto is a quality young player that under the right system will thrive}.

30 Aug 2017 21:18:47
Vietto would be a top signing

Don't see it happening but who knows anymore.



30 Aug 2017 21:45:53
I have to say I'm in Johns corner on this one regarding Vietto. His record when it comes to actual goals is pretty ordinary at best for a out and out striker, which i assume he is, and if he isn't an out and out striker why would we sign him, we have enough attacking minded options. Why sign a one goal every 4 matches type of striker? Makes no sense to me.



{Ed047's Note - He is not what i would call a true No.9 he is more a No.10 very creative and mobile, he will most likely stay at Madrid until Jan when Costa signs as under a transfer ban}.

30 Aug 2017 16:33:26
Moussa Marega could be the striker.



30 Aug 2017 14:37:23
I think before the window closes we will buy julan, snap up soares on loan with option to buy and palhinha we will buy. So realistically spending just slightly more on fees that we gained by selling bodvarsson, edwards and dicko.
With those three and the squad we already have without a doubt we will go up. can't see us not being promoted. The above players all point to the path fosun have already gone down regarding we look at for value, improvement and assets.



30 Aug 2017 14:51:50
What Mendes wants he pretty much gets Porto will not be wanting to upset him. Soares inbound!



30 Aug 2017 14:52:43
Where have u heard this from or think we will sign these?



30 Aug 2017 15:32:45
Barewolf its what I think will happen. Also these three names keep cropping up time after time for there not to be substance in it and they make sense in the type of player fosun look at. There was a left back called martin veelar that we were looking at but it seems that watford will get him. I think that's the reason were after colback so atleast we get cover as he's left sided. This then hopefully means were still after a defensive midfielder palhinha so neves becomes more attack minded with his passing ability rather than breaking play up.



30 Aug 2017 15:36:47
Well if Soares and Palhinha don't happen it is big egg on face for WWFC INSIDER - definitely not ITK.



30 Aug 2017 16:15:25
its now gone back to Porto lol.



30 Aug 2017 16:27:26
my first post did not come up? Tiquinho Soares wikipedia was showing his current club as Wolves FC but its gone back to Porto FC?



30 Aug 2017 16:57:58
Anyone can edit Wikipedia pages. Someone here might have speculatively made the change to Wolves. It's happened before.



30 Aug 2017 13:35:51
seems were in for Colback from Newcastle on loan.



30 Aug 2017 13:43:10
And Graham off to Leicester. If we loan Colback that will be 5 in on loan, it that the limit? Does that mean we will have to pay cash for a striker? .



30 Aug 2017 13:45:50
Want him now quality centre mid with neves.



30 Aug 2017 13:50:04
No it's only 5 in a match day squad so you have have I think 8 at a club.



30 Aug 2017 13:50:26
Colback any good?



30 Aug 2017 14:00:09
Good box to box midfielder who likes a tackle. Sits deep and breaks up the play.



30 Aug 2017 14:10:36
Colbeck much better than Saiss.



30 Aug 2017 14:26:51
Yeah definitely proved in championship and played in prem hope we get him.



30 Aug 2017 14:28:21
Colbeck is predominantly left footed whos played a lot of his career at left back aswell as midfield. he's athletic and has a good engine so maybe nuno sees him more as vying with douglas for the left wing back role . Also he can play right wing back if needed so is a versatile option.



30 Aug 2017 15:04:16
I'd play him centre mid with neves bit of a unsung hero he is 7/ 10 every week.



30 Aug 2017 15:17:11
This lad from Newcastle has got a good left peg on him so I am told, if we can get him playing deep in midfield with that lad kid we got from Porto who's also got a good boot on him then all we need is a big tall striker and those lads can launch it up to him all afternoon and give the opposition real headaches, I said this yesterday and hopefully that's why we sold the boy Dicko, not tall enough, waste of time launching the ball up to him so hopefully the centre forward they replace him with is well over 6 feet tall.



30 Aug 2017 15:37:22
Most people on here just repeat what's in news now no one saw jack colback coming did they not even a mention no one knows anything on here lol.



30 Aug 2017 17:16:49
Your reference to lads and boys suggests that you are an old timer Stan as does your desire to have the ball launched upfield. That type of football is for dinosaurs not skilful possession based teams such as Nuno is trying to create.



30 Aug 2017 20:45:22
I ain't as young as I used to be Wulf but in that league we will need to get some route one football on the go, especially in the winter when the pitches are't so good. Sometimes it's the only way, get it up to a big lad in the box and get at em. Ah that's the best way I think.



30 Aug 2017 12:09:36
Might be yesterday's news but Lazio are looking to sign Helda Costa as a replacement for Keita. Seems to be difference of opinion on valuation.



30 Aug 2017 13:03:32
Here's the article translated from Lazio news.
Absolutely ridiculous approach if true;

Lazio has identified Helder Costa as a possible substitute for Keita, but Wolverhampton has refused the first biancoceleste offer

Helder Costa, this is the new home name for Lazio for the replacement of Keita . The
Biancoceleste club - according to our draftsmanship - would have made an initial offer at Wolverhampton around 8 million, but the British required it 22-23 to let it go. There does not appear to be a prerequisite to enter into a negotiation, despite the mediation of Jorge Mendes, the prosecutor of the boy.

AFTER KEITA - The Lazio has placed Keita, the Monaco won the day on Italian competitors by presenting the right offer to LotitoAnd tearing the 'yes' of the player. An important hit, especially for the company's cashier, which now has the task of reinvesting the money by finding a high quality replacement. That's what Inzaghi has asked, that's what the public wants. The chosen one already has a name: Helder Costa . The boy, in power at Wolverhampton, is rated at least 15 million and is managed by Agent Mendes . The Capitoline club put it on plate 8, but with the prosecutor's intercession it could close around 10/ 11 .

CHARACTERISTICS - Hélder Wander Sousa Azevedo Costa, better known as Hélder Costa, is a left exterior often also used as a trequartista. Class '94, born in Angola, but nationalized in Portugal. Last January, Wolverhampton redeemed him from Benfica for a sum of 13 million euros, considering it a real jewel to bet on.



30 Aug 2017 13:24:47
jack colback could be coming to Wolves on loan.



30 Aug 2017 13:41:06
Would be a great signing.



30 Aug 2017 07:41:10
Paul Franks on WM last night said that 2 Portuguese players were seen at Compton. One was Soares can't remember who the other one was.



30 Aug 2017 08:45:39
Soares is Brazilian isn't he?



30 Aug 2017 09:20:35
Tim Spiers was on the twitter saying Porto rejected a loan move for Soares.
That's magic!



30 Aug 2017 09:38:45
We have recruited well over the transfer period but I can't help feeling we will end up panic buying the last couple of players. £10 million for Hugill is being floated around. Really hope we have firm targets in mind rather than over paying for sub standard players.



30 Aug 2017 09:58:13
When you've billionaire owners, a quality coach and a super agent, there's no panicking! Just chill and let them work their magic 👍.



30 Aug 2017 10:07:16
Well said paul tamworth can only be positive since fosun tookover. I said pretty much the same this time last year and I got slated. negative thoughts only puts yourself feeling down. we wolves are going places so as yazz sang the only way is up😎.



30 Aug 2017 10:20:51
Well well well.

The high risk signings are:
Hugill- one season scored 13 more of a target man
Rhodes- can he rediscover the form he had?
Wells- same as Rhodes hamstring injuries
Gayle- getting older but worth 20 goals issues with attitude and injuries
All those players you are looking at between 8m-18m.
I hope the number crunchers at Molineux have there calculators today.
It is probably best to take all reports on and judge on football rather than the past though.
I'm sure Mendes has a couple of aces up his sleeve.



30 Aug 2017 10:26:05
I agree it doesn't make sense moving on 3 strikers unless there's a plan in place to replace them. Even Zyro is being talked about as going on loan. Leaves only Bonatini and to a lesser extent Cav as players who could pull it off at CF.

What's Kevin Doyle doing these days?



30 Aug 2017 10:58:56
I think the deals are pretty much done and will be all announced at some point in next 24 hours. Got a feeling it will be Julan, Barnes and the lad from Lisbon in midfield.



30 Aug 2017 11:25:22
How would Tim know.



30 Aug 2017 11:30:05
I remember them saying 3 year plan and we're they won't to be in 10 years. how long they been here?



30 Aug 2017 12:14:58
Plenty of teams around us linked with strikers and all we are linked with is? Not much the proven goal scorers will be gone again and we will just panic buy would have been better iff keeping hold of dicko until someone signed the dotted line . think its a must that we need to get gayle or afobe.



30 Aug 2017 12:32:55
The only panic is coming from the fans!

Chill out.



30 Aug 2017 13:06:15
The transfer market especially acquiring important pieces of the jigsaw i.e goal scorers is like a game of chess you have to wait for pieces to fall into place before you show your hand and make your move. stay calm don't panic Fosun will deliver.



30 Aug 2017 14:35:18
All I know is that it has gone VERY quiet on Twitter, hopefully something big is brewing. Waiting on news from Tim and Timmer.
