Dava1892 Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Since Amanda left, there looks to be no real control of what is going on. We’ve had the whole window, already bid for Elanga earlier on which didn’t materialise. Now waiting until deadline day to get what it seems any deal ‘over the line’ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now waiting until deadline day to get what it seems any deal ‘over the line’ There's been a lot of Staveley praise (much of it valid), but I think it's worth remembering that her dealmaking ability also led us into a nightmare in June. I do think at least part of that dealmaking ability was not balking at requests to throw in an extra X million £. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Immediately after being owned by the poorest millionaire in England, we get the poorest richest-owners-in-world-football (not really, just wanted to say it ) Yep, these sort of owners 10-15 years ago and we could have spunked a few billion by now. Ridiculous that we are being held back in this way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jagten Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 32 minutes ago, KaKa said: Nunes really really fits our style of play. Would love that, but we'd have to be creative with our lineup. I remember Wolves played him as an attacking mid and on the right sometimes. Somewhat similar to how Emery uses McGinn wide left now, but slightly tucked in. If there's an opportunity to get a player of his calibre, and Eddie can come up with a clever way to incorporate him, I would be all over that 100%. Gonna take the other side of this. Nunes was not good at wolves and his numbers have always been rubbish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally. Apart from getting Botman, Isak, Tonali, and Bruno... Unless something has dramatically changed, which I highly doubt considering that Mitchell is our DoF, then I assume that we still look on the continent. There may be an emphasis on PL experience, but I won't be surprised if a quarter of our transfers are still from the European leagues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something has dramatically changed 3 of them were in the first 2 windows and we don’t think there’s a better centre half option than Guehi, Kilman and Tosin if you believe the press at the minute.
