Looks like Guilherme is off to Sporting Lisbon.

Mendes seems to be working some magic.

[Hammer I am]

Pablo (no not that one) having a medical, could be in in time for Wolves

[Fauxstralian]

Suits everyone 
Fulham get a couple of million plus losing his wages
Traore gets to play more and is a free agent at the end of the season
Hopefully (HOPEFULLY) we get someone to play on the break who has something to prove

[goose]

Traore is a player I’ve wanted us to sign for ages. Might be a year or two too late but I love the pace & directness he brings.

Will be nice to see one of players not be constantly out muscled by the opposition.

[El Scorchio]

Traore completed. Deal to end of season. Being reported by Whetstone.




 

Good. Actually getting business done early. Favourable deal too. And cheap. 
not exactly Arjen Robben but 100% improves our attacking potential and leaves most of the money for other players. 

[eusebiovic]

When Mendes was in bed with Wolves they got players like Neves, Jota & Neto
Theyve gone away from that with the Chinese owners

I think Mendes was actually an investor or some kind of shareholder in Fosun who are the Chinese owners of Wolves.

They obviously had some kind of mutual agreement deal in the early days of their ownership but for one reason or another it seems pretty obvious that the relationship broke down. 

They've had some brilliant Portugeezers playing for them over the last decade. Plus the odd Brazilian too.

[Massive Attack]

The Strand Larsen one was giving me kittens as well bang out of form and already pre-programmed with a relegation mentality. He needs to build his career back up slowly after their impending relegation. Too risky to spend that amount when we might soon be joining Wolves ourselves.

[Mad Dog]

These cunts signed yet?

Got to say im hugely underwhelmed by the traore signing.  Someone ive not massively rated, and cant even get in fulham's team.

Hope im Wrong

I know fuck all the other one but im glad were not getting rinsed by wolves again and giving them cash to spend

£ 25-30 million. Flamengo. Brazilian Summer window is open. The guy most likely wants to go home.?

Yea, I would want go home after his couple of years.
I think if we're to survive Nono has to get the best out of him and Bowen and the striker coming in. Got to keep our best players!

[theaxeman]

We should be looking to offload Paqueta this month but with a manager who rates the liability to be our best player, it doesn't look like that will happen.

 

 

How much do you think we'll get for Paqueta and who from?

[Fauxstralian]

If there is any possibility of Ruben Neves from Saudi I’d offer Paqueta as a swap
 

[Come On You Irons]

We should be looking to offload Paqueta this month but with a manager who rates the liability to be our best player, it doesn't look like that will happen.

[Fauxstralian]

We should agree the £40m for Strand Larsen on Friday night
And then withdraw it at 5pm on Saturday after he is left out
After Matt Jarvis & Kilman it’s not as if we will ever consider buying a Wolves player in the future

[Eerie Decent]

So they're not intent on a relegation fire sale?

Where's Rossal?

[Massive Attack]

Can't fault the speed of a new signing, so for once the Club has acted prompt and seemingly laying down significant dough for a 21yo if the £20M is to be believed I think I read somewhere. The kind of young fit Striker signing we should have made instead of Fullkunt having failed with Duran. Question marks will have to remain about whether Pablo can produce his form in the Prem but let's see. 

[stubbo-admin]

Pablo medical today.

[Far Cough UKunt]

We mean business this January.

Leeds and Forest must be shitting it.

Hahahaha

[El Scorchio]

He’ ll either be crap or if not will get injured seriously within 3 games. Its the West Ham way. 

Any news on a CB or 2 or an athletic midfielder who can carry the ball coming in? The CB area without Todibo means Kilman has to play every game. Thats a goal down before we start

 

 

With the Ake thing looks like a CB is definitely incoming from somewhere. As for a midfielder don’t hold your breath. That’s probably lowest priority with the ones we already have. Wingers and forwards please.

[El Scorchio]

Ain’t the reason why Wolves are in the same shit as us. Is because they already been played like a fiddle by Mendes & Co.? Yeah. This is going to end well.!

I’d say not. They are several years removed and had their best run in recent history when he was involved. They’ve fucked up since.
