Kid Icarus Posted August 28, 2025 Share Posted August 28, 2025 Little did we know, Guehi wasn't a lesson to learn, it was the model. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently I’m the misery but I just can’t believe they’d leave Howe without a striker even if we have to do a loan. Believe We will get someone in.

This. We have zero chance of buying a decent striker from the Premier League at this stage. We need to take a punt on a striker in Europe (Openda and Emegha would be ideal). Emegha might be complicated by the fact he plays for Strasbourg, a BlueCo group club, so we'd be essentially negotiating with Chelsea who are no doubt hoping to sign him on the cheap later down the line.

There just isn't a good market to shop from Don't think it's OTT at all to suggest we're probably done now if we're definitively priced out of Wissa and Larsen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Puppets Posted August 28, 2025 Share Posted August 28, 2025 Just to point out... Ornstein tweeted almost exactly the same thing yesterday and said almost exactly the same thing on the Sky Sports podcast yesterday... and in his words on that podcast "it depends on which side you're listening to".

I wouldn’t mind bidding £60m for Ramos or Watkins.

SAK Posted August 28, 2025 Share Posted August 28, 2025 20 minutes ago, wormy said: Have Wolves done anything that's evidently invited talks, though? All I've seen is us desperately throw bids in after scrabbling further and further down our target list. Now after three bids they appear to have all but told us to fuck off. There seems to be one constant in all of these negotiations and it's us throwing bid after bid in, wasting weeks on a player before being told to kick rocks in some form or other. Feels like almost 4 years on from the takeover, we've somehow ended up with less transfer contacts to know who we actually have a shot at than we started with. Who knows but reports suggested talks were promising? So there must have been discussions to lead to the bids? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelphish Posted August 28, 2025 Share Posted August 28, 2025 I'm still leaning towards this one being the one tbh, we'll just massively overpay. And we need to unless we want to put the season in the bin and repeat the Isak process with someone like Tonali next summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
