What happened with Adama Traore? Did he go back in the end? they all are like good-ish attackers but none of them stand out from one another Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolves are fucked without Jimenez and Silva. This is an urgency move. We are not in urgent territory. This regime doesn't like to do urgency. Have a lie down.

Gallowgate Toon Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Love the Mig and think this is going to be his best season for us by far, but I was thinking today that Werner on loan is potentially an excellent fit for the right hand forward role.

bowlingcrofty Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 (edited) If we could get him on loan with an option to buy that would be good business. Would expect he’ll be used as a sweetener in the Fofana deal though. Edited August 7, 2022 by bowlingcrofty Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s taken a Mitro-esque redemption arc to get him there and he’ll need to do it in the PL this season to take him out the Chopra / Nugent / Gayle pool of ‘too good / not good enough’ players.

Mazzy Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Personally think Hudson-Odoi isn't all that. I'd take a chance on him on loan if Howe thinks he can improve him and I'm happy to be proved wrong. Just seems to me like he'd have gotten a move away already if he was top level standard (like Tomori and Abraham). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 9 hours ago, The Prophet said: This guy's profile makes a lot of sense as far as what we've been after, as he can play right, left and upfront. Very much a wide forward/striker. The Wolves link might be a lazy one, just because he's Portuguese. They did the same with Palhinha this summer, and he ended up at Fulham. Looks like a lot of clubs have been interested in Guedes but Valencia have been insisting on getting back the majority of the 40 million euros they paid for him, and clubs haven't been able to pay it. The reported fee of 35 million euros is in line with what we've offered for both Diaby and Harrison already this summer. Going to keep an eye on this one. Think it's a possibility.

St1pe Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Would love CHO here and I think his direct style would work well in Howe’s system. Him and Almiron in that RW position is potentially really strong if Miggy keeps up his form too. This is also a proper brexity PFM opinion (stole this from someone on here) but I’m loving us targeting young, English players with Premier League experience. I grew up watching Newcastle players in the England setup and I’d love it if there was a realistic chance we had some regular English starters.

I don’t see the Spanish market as one we are yet going to focus on and target so I would be surprised if we did get him. Not saying he isn’t talented (I’ve not seen him play), but for this initial phase of our rebuild, the prem and Ligue 1 seems to be our focus. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t mean it as it’s a limit, maybe they just feel for this part of the rebuild that it’s better to target them from the prem or French league. Or maybe our existing set up has better knowledge of those markets. I could be wrong of course, but most of our targets are seemingly from those 2 leagues so far.

I think we'll be looking all over to be honest. Diaby was a very strong link and he's in Germany. In January we were really pushing for Carlos from Sevilla. We appeared to really want Nunez and he was in Portugal etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
