Welcome to Wolves Ruben Neves

[Donegal Wolf]

Amazed we have kept in for 5 seasons, thought would get 2, possibly 3 best case before one of the champion league clubs came in for him

I think because he so often gets the assist for the assist he goes under the radar

 

[PuntsWolf]

Maybe take it at Norwich and miss Burnley?

Don’t really want him missing any game. Burnley is far more winnable with him in the team. We’re probably losing to Liverpool and City regardless so may as well be one of them

What a man

 

[The Bear]

That would have been a much better video if there wasn't two or three replays of the first two clips at the start. The rest of it flowed much better.

 

[Derby Wolf]

Didn't show his shot v West Ham.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Five appearances away from 200 for Wolves.

What I'd give for him to make it 400 or 500.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

I remember thinking when he signed, that I would be happy if we just got two seasons minimum from him!

 

[Del Woppio]

He's so fucking good.

 

[Carsy]

Remember that unveiling video. Still get goosebumps!

 

[Jolemai]

 

[WsWolf]

Ridiculous thing is that some of those struggle to get near his top 5 goal in a wolves shirt. What a footballer.

 

[Alan]

COVID weirdness notwithstanding, did anyone expect we’d get (at least) six seasons with him? I sure didn’t.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Thought we'd get at best two out of him.

Same with Joao.

 

[Sniffer]

I'm surprised that a serious offer has never materialised. The amount of times he has oozed class and dominated games against higher ranked opponents yet from what I can recall there has not been much in the way of rumours of him leaving to join one of the sky six.

 

[Alan]

I guess because he's never been a regular scorer/assister? It's the only thing I can think. His underlying numbers are generally pretty high but his "creative" stats... not so much.

Means he lives in a statistical no-man's land where he's seen as solid but not vicious enough to be a true ball-winner and but equally not creative enough to consistently affect his side's goal scoring record.

That's not to say he's poor, obviously, nor that I agree with the above statement.

I was surprised Pep went for Philips rather than Neves in the summer.

He seems perfect for City.

This is why stats are bollocks.

What you've said is all well and good but frankly a load of crap in the context of the actual game of football.

João has made more appearances for wolves than any other club now. Which considering the majority of my lifetime we've been appalling is unbelievable.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Pre-Casemiro/Eriksen, he'd have walked into any Manchester United midfield since 2017. With the amount of money they hoy at absolute shite, it's so weird they never went for him. Glad they didn't though.
