ciggiesnbeer Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Of course we can beat Wolves. Will we? No idea. But of course we can. We probably wont be favourites and rightly so, but its football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we will the double over them next season and regain our crown as being the Kings of the Midlands. They don’t strike fear in me, far from it, our demolition job of the season before the one just gone when we beat them 4-1 at Villa Park proved that 2 players that won Euro 2016, Dendoncker is one of highest profile young players in Europe and Neves and Jota are wonderful talents.They finished 7th We be happy to finish 12th next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not looking forward to playing us, in fact. I'm sure that's true, but it's a bit of a silly point. Assuming we balls up strengthening the squad, I think we'll be in big trouble.

I think it highlights how poor the league is currently in general, Wolves are nothing special in my opinion, I think we’re better than them. The top 6 are so far ahead of everyone else, it’s scary With all due respect there is no way imo that we are better than Wolves. Yes you are right to point out the 4-1 victory against them - but actually the way they dismantled us at Molineux was an even greater achievement imo. Nuno is a first class manager and one that I'm sure Dean would respect and in some ways aspire too. I have little doubt that we will sooner rather than later - return to being Midlands champions - but for now let's have it right, the Dingles are a good side 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not looking forward to playing us, in fact. We have a great potential, its just when will we get going and have the new players settling. With the fact that we need a huge work in just to months to change the whole squad. We’ll need to average adding more than a player every week. We’ll need couple of them to be with us during the preseason. Wolves can go to the season without any addition and they could survive. They have a chance to just put their money into 2 marquee signing and have a bigger improvement. They’re stable atm. Ofcourse I’m not saying I’m not optimistic, actually I’ve been backing the team to go up even before our form clicked on. But we need to be realistic. However, if we got it right and continue our great form and had great start, we would have the potential for going far away. We have to also know that even though we continued a great form, we didn’t play that well in our last couple of games (including playoffs) which is understandable. But we really need to up our game.

Skills Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Great technically and is different to what we have but is a bit lightweight which is my concern. El ghazi to start - Jota and Green back ups, need 1 more starting winger for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the Adomah for Jota switch, for negliagble monies is an easy decision. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted June 3, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted June 3, 2019 Soooooooo, according to the font of all knowledge which is social media which never makes anything up and tells no lies, we were swapping Gardner for Jota and a medical was undertaken on Friday. Still no news. Truth or Lie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 I'm guessing a combination of champions league weekend, the complex of a swap deal all contributing to the delay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teale's 'tache Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Could be something in the medicals needs a second look, maybe we are waiting until we officially become a Premier League team which is sometime next week I think, as above swap deals can be tricky and need a bit of extra negotiating, or their fax machine could be on the blink and they can't afford a new one...
