"Let's see them play first before we judge, and when I say play I don't mean after 10 minutes."

you're not back on the beat now hassling the public, or carrying a whistle bullying poor amateur players. you idolized the most negative manager we've ever had, so stick your true fan bollocks. you love this negative shit football, week after week after week. how does chucking multiple strikers at a bloke that has shown he sees very little value in playing a single striker make sense? it doesn't

Lazio is struggling financially. I was reading translated threads on their boat book group, some thought they were going down

The last few posts sum up the fan base on here perfectly and is the reason why getting relegated might be a blessing for us as it will get rid of idiots like this.

FFS we are 3rd from bottom, who of any ability would want to join us? You moan when we don't buy anyone and you moan when we do. Sullivan is a tool, we can all agree on that, but he is, finally, putting his hand in his pocket.

How many of you had heard of Neves, Jota, Cunha etc etc etc before they joined Wolves via Mendes? None of you. The same cunts would have moaned about Frank McAvennie, tin pot league etc etc etc

Let's see them play first before we judge, and when I say play I don't mean after 10 minutes.

So many " told you so's " on here. They could all be a pile of shit but lets give them a chance.

Its the usual scattergun approach, who's available on a budget.  This time I think it's too late to be enough.

it shows how easy it is for that midget cսnt to tickle the fans stomachs. he's letting this useless prick bring in a winger that can't trap a bag of cement and is more famous for oiling himself up, an unknown striker who going by the assessment of the fraggle rock podcast, also has an horrific first touch and can't pass the ball, and lastly the chelsea dwarf who's played about five minutes of football in the last six months

#next level 🙂

Pablo scored a 100th minute eqaliser after coming on in the 58th minute against Rio Alva on 20th Dec.
Scored in the 41st minute at home to Arouca,subbed in the 75th minute.
Prior to these 2 games he missed 4 of the last 5 games due to a muscular injury.

Sounds good on a goalscoring point of view,will get more injuries in a more robust league ?

One thing we have proved is that to win a game we need to score 3 goals.

Playing Kilman just isn't helping us out in that respect and we need Mavro and Todibo in there and Kilman fucked off at a massive loss, we just have to admit we had our pants pulled down on buying him.

We need another quality CB desperately and as much as our centre midfield has improved ( and it most definitely has after the Soucek, Irvine, Guido experiments ) I still think we cannot rely on Paqueta for creativity and linking defence to attack, Fernandes is still developing and besides, for us, is a number 8 not a number 10 as he was at Southampton. We need another ball carrier type with strength / legs. Magassa and Kante showed glimpses of whats needed against Fulham and Brighton respectively. LikeMorgan Rodgers does for Villa those bursts forward are so hard to stop. Just need another option to Paqueta who for me just aint a team player.  

But I must say if we have managed to get 2 players in already I am already in shock. Just shows Sullivan is absolutely shi**ing himself.

I've been to two Lazio games in December 2024 Europa Cup v a Bulgarian outfit 0-0, and then Lazio v Roma and ended up in the Curva Sud with the Roma fans, September 21st 2025

The galling part about all this early successful January signings is Sullivan only acts when he shits himself losing his Premier League golden ticket. When we've been in decent positions under previous managers to kick on turn of the year chasingthe top 4, the cսnt sits on all the cash preferring to settle with what we've got spending fuck all. Sums his reign of terror right up the tight fisted little wanker. 💩
