Buying the league?

But the reasoning is spot on

I agree we have been unfairly labelled,i think they are thinking way back to 2008-10 ish and ignoring the figures since then,we are big bad city like it or not,they also ignore how little we paid for vinny,zabba etc as it doesn't suit them

What are your owners like? do they have plans to do a lot of business this summer on the back of your excellent season?

See my post on the Wolves thread Karen. They have stated that they aim to compete with the top clubs for top players this summer. They are the real deal and not prepared to stand still. This season was good but in their words, they didn't buy Wolves to finish 7th. This is just the start and they are already making big inroads into China (all our games are screened live there), Mexico as we signed Mexican national hero Raul Jimenez and of course, Portugal!

They are also investing heavily in the infrastructure of the club with big improvements to the training ground, laying replica pitches to the Molineux playing surfaces and plans to rebuild Molineux as a 50K seater. We have a waiting list of 5K for season tickets alone!

That's what rivals like to do, inflate the actual transfer fee when we buy someone. De Bruyne 68m fuck off.

What's the latest with you guys and Joao Felix, heard you could get him for a ridiculously low fee?

Looks like many of them could be in euros with the wrong currency in front.
That, or people have done what many do, and copy them from transfermarkt, without noting that the £ price changes on the site as it''s base is the euro (so as the £ goes down, the £ value goes up).

No Suruez on there either,the dippers have spent more than it shows,whoever put it together was having a laugh

There have been rumours about JF for a while, it seems a bit bizarre to be honest especially as we cannot offer Champions League football but Jorge Mendes is the key and he moves in mysterious ways. The fact we signed Ruben Neves and Diogo Jota when we were in the Championship then Portuguese legends Rui Patricio and Joao Moutinho makes us believe anything is possible with Fosun and Mendes.

Thanks Karen that's kind, we are still pinching ourselves at this point. I guess other clubs might say that we finished 7th and lost to Watford in a semi, so what but we can see the bigger picture. We play the best football we have ever seen, have a fantastic manager and super ambitous owners who want the world and are prepared to get it. But then we also lost twice to HUDDERSFIELD!!
