Summer 2021 transfer window

[YoungWolf]

Sanches plus a centre back hopefully

 

[BGreenWolf]

I reckon we'll get a warm body in at CB no matter what, even if it's a player nowhere near the calibre of Botman or DCC.

 

[Tony Towner]

No info whatsoever, I just have a nervous Matt Doherty back on loan feeling

I think Mosquera is that body in the club's mind now

 

[Quirkafleeg]

Sell Adama or Neves today Mr Shi will need an armed guard to navigate around Wolverhampton.

Don't think either will happen, surely

If we can't get that quality we might as well go with what we've got

 

[Wilf Wolf]

If you’d asked in May I wouldn’t have been too bothered about losing Neves and Traore but having seen them in two home games under Bruno the most important thing today is we keep them both. No doubt in the future both will probably move but a season under Bruno will see their value rocket.

 

[Dire Wolf]

What are we realistically expecting today?

For me, I think we're done.

I expect us to try and get Sanches over the line but can see it just failing to go through. Can't see any other strong links to CBs or CMs that look convincing, and the Botman and DCC bids look to have petered out

Hope you’re wrong but it wouldn’t surprise me. We’ve never really been a club that goes all gung-ho on transfer deadline day so I’d be surprised if we did much today.

Well, that was a nice few hours of optimism last night.

 

[WolfMan]

I've got a terrible feeling that we'll get a Spiers tweet at about 6pm saying no more signings expected and the club are currently happy with what they've got and that'll be it.

I hear Jack Whilshere is a free agent..

Sign him up Jeff

Shi is a disgrace if this happens.

I can't see us not signing players as that would be another terrible window and the board not backing their new manager.

Shi would be coming under a lot of fire from the stands, particularly if results are slow to improve.

The question I'd ask is why we haven't been able to get that quality during three years of being in the PL?

 

[WolfMan]

I think they are trying to sign them, just seems like they aren't willing to put the money up that's needed to prize them away at the minute.

Seems from the outside there's a bit of who blinks first going on and we're assuming desperation will set in closer to the deadline. I just feel we're in danger of pissing people off and it'll all blow up in our faces and we'll end up with nothing. Massive speculation on my part here of course.

Groundhog Deadline Day...

I'd be pessimistic too if someone had robbed my toilet.

The question I'd ask is why we haven't been able to get that quality during three years of being in the PL?

I'm guessing top class players don't see us as a progression to their career or we don't sell the club to them very well...combined with not wanting to overspend on players and wages.
There's no doubt in my mind we try to sign good players but we're way down the pecking order in the Premier league in terms of attractive clubs

 

[prawnking]

I think they are trying to sign them, just seems like they aren't willing to put the money up that's needed to prize them away at the minute.

We've had this for a few years now though, if we're not willing to put up the money needed for a certain calibre of player then why not secure a player we can afford in a lower tier?

It's not like there are only two CBs in the world that are better than what we currently have
