ferguson1 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 (edited) Are some of the transfers surrounding Wolves a little dodgy? This Rafa Mir fella is about to be sold by Wolves for approx £14m to Sevilla. They signed him in 2018 for approx £1.5m and he appears to have done nothing of note at Wolves during the last 3 years. Now he may have had some recent/successful loans (haven’t followed him) but that’s some decent profit. Pretty sure we’re not as successful with these type of deals, so how come? Is he another Jorge Mendes client perhaps? Edited August 19, 2021 by ferguson1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Scored a hat trick in the olympics but other than that not a fat lot to justify the price tag. I actually quite liked the look of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Mir scored thirteen goals in La Liga last season, if you wanted to buy a striker that scored the same amount of goals in the Premier League it would probably cost a lot more than fourteen million. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would perhaps explain the price tag then. Wasn’t aware of this but a nice tidy profit for someone that hasn’t worked out at the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks at us now though, the following players are all worth more than they were when we bought them; Martinez, Cash, Konsa, Targett, Mings, Watkins, Luiz, McGinn. We'd prob even be able to make a profit on El Ghazi if we sold him now. Edited August 20, 2021 by Wainy316 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Looks like they could be losing Adama to Spuds and bringing in Kiefer Moore from Cardiff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 The Spurs bid for Adama is apparantly £5m to have him on loan for the season and then a further £35m to make the deal permanent, not sure that Wolves will agree to that their CEO pretty much said that they need to sell to buy, losing one of their better players but only getting £5m now isn't going to help much with that. Neves being linked to Man Utd by Fabrizio Romano as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 How can Adama be rated as a £40m plus player? Truly bonkers. Admittedly he’s improved massively since he was with us but his stats just don’t justify the price tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 How many chances does Adama need to fulfil his potential? Maybe he’s just not that good, that’s what my money is on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Adama is not a footballer, he’s over-beefed and better without the ball than with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 For all the jokes, Spurs will be proper scary with Son/Bergwijn/Adama flying in their new formation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adama is nothing special at all. In a team better than Wolves he’ll look even further away from being quality. Son is massively underrated.

DCJonah Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 I know they have no point and no goals but I think they've looked very good in every game. Adama looks unplayable at the moment. I think they're going to be a tough team to finish above, I think they'll be top half this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingram85 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Unplayable in the sense that he will beat anyone in a race with/to the ball but when he gets to the end of that race then he hasn’t got a clue. Adama isn’t a good footballer at all. He is just very **** strong and fast. But that’s all he is. His end product is abysmal. *IF* he can add more assists and a few goals to his game then he will change a few minds. I don’t think he will though. Good luck to him though as he is great to watch.
