He’s usually bang on for Wolves news fwiw, however if it is true, you would imagine more people would have picked it up.

 

So was the journo who broke our interest in BEK and that never happened.

Looked on a Wolves forum and they think 60m is fucking crazy money.  They cant believe it

 

Very limited player they say

I know we are desperate but it’s ridiculous paying that for him and probably paving the way for Isak to leave

They would say that if they thought hes leaving. Wolves fans I spoke to last season before their game up here said at a better team he'd be a break out.

I mean, we got all dizzy over a "Tier 0 local journo" claiming that we were in for Bilal Al-Khanouss, and he had a release clause and all. And now, with this "release clause" having long expired, Al-Khanouss is still at Leicester and linked with....Crystal Palace.

Similar sort of quality to Wissa, but a few years younger. 

 

We're going to end up overpaying for one of them.

Long term it may very well be worth it. Going into this season with only Le Sulk, Gordon and Osula is negligent.

I'm pretty sure we were in for him if Ramsey hadn't come off.

Juxtapose the above with this other set of stats - "Most chances created by Premier League teams in 2024/2025".

 

https://www.statmuse.com/fc/ask?q=most+chances+created+by+team+in+the+premier+league+24%2F25

 

Newcastle is surprisingly, in 8th place - behind even Manchester United; Fulham and Bournemouth. Which indicates (roughly), that our players did really well in converting the chances created - Barnes, and Murphy behind Isak etc.

 

Brentford (with Wissa) are in 15th. Right below them is Wolves (with Strand Larsen) in 16th. Indicating that these two players are really clinical in making hay out of the not-many chances created for them (just two and three places above the relegated teams).

 

Verdict - if we sell Isak (or not) - a front two/rotation of Wissa and Strand Larsen will get us goals (statistically speaking) - provided they get chances. Wissa, Strand Larsen, and a Maddison-type midfielder and we're cooking with gas.

 

My other post about stats and Wissa+JSL. TLDR: Give them chances, and they'll put them in the net.

They just bought him a month and half ago for almost £40m less of course they are going to say £60m is mental because it is

Wissa is a bit more exciting for me, but Larsen would be a good Wilson replacement, although we are buying at the top of the market. Feels like needs must rather than someone we were genuinely going for.

I'd rather dump 60M on Wissa, from a PSR perspective the loss would be the same.
