Matheus Nunes

A Wolves ITK and a few reporters have said it early on.

I find it very hard to believe that a PL footballer with a well established experienced agent would omit such an important clause in an employment contract. You wouldn't.

 

[not my fault!]

Well on last weekends results how you can say that Brighton looked better than Liverpool,one got smashed,other came back from behind with 10 men !

Anyway I agree,and I'm as confident as you are,but I will stick to my guns by saying they are the serious threat this season unfortunately.

Liverpool were lucky, they know it too. Newcastle should have been out of sight but missed some pretty easy chances to put them to bed. I also said over the first 3 games not just last weekend.
The way I see it, everyone’s improved but there’s 3/4 teams now all around the same standard who will take points off one another. Meanwhile we are still a few steps ahead and as long as we beat them I see us winning it with several games to go by a decent points margin. Our drive is to beat ever record possible and that’s wha5 we’ll try to do.

If the scouses get a midfielder in they will be a threat...that front 3 is very decent and if they sort out the midfield position in the next few days they will be the biggest threat imho.....

Yea,but they got to act quick,as in 48 hours quick,because the 200m they get off Salad can only been spent in January at the earliest otherwise.

Now that would be funny,he goes after our window shuts,I'd piss myself.

One thing is sure and that is the club are in for a ball carrying central midfielder so if we don't sign Nunes and we can't get someone else in before close of play on Friday then we will have failed in that objective.

How costly in terms of success or lack of in the coming season that failure might be we'll only know in around nine months time.

If Wolves were to get circa £50 million for Nunes there would be fan pressure to spend that money. However, they are skint. The likelihood is that if it happens Wolves will allow it to happen so late that they conveniently won`t have enough time to re-invest within their squad.

Not sure, but I think this happened to us when we sold Wanchope and Anelka late in the transfer window.

Liverpool won’t be challenging at all. They have a very good attack but defensively they are shocking and midfield is so lightweight it cannot compete. Chelsea dominated them, bourmouth caused them all sorts of problems and Newcastle only have themselves to blame for not beating them easily.

while i agree on the performances of those teams as you say, you have to assume that like we do, they will get better as the season goes on, work out their team balance (Scousers for instance with their midfield). Arteta seems to be experimenting a little at the moment - but again you have to assume that he will probably work it out at some point and their performances will improve.

Conversely, we normally under Pep start a little disjointed and then become a wrecking ball who cant be stopped -but this season we have started stronger (not near peak performance but still a lot more solid).

I think the "fear" with some people is injuries - losing KDB so quickly for a few months has only heightened that fear and losing Rodders for some of those big games (CL and Prem) would see us struggle more....just being able to rest him would be a huge bonus. You also have to factor in the Stones issue....brilliant player but you know he is going to pick up injuries through the season...so you are nearly guaranteed to be at least one player short at some point throughout the season.

Agree we have had a decent window (the additions have all been absolute class so far) - but not maybe the window that even the club expected/wanted so far?? They may have been blindsided by the Saudi involvement in the market (for instance would Mahrez have left if it wasnt for that?) ...the caveat to that is that if you stand still in football,then realistically you are moving backwards....

I’m sure they will click, but as I said unless it’s soon they’ll get left behind. Utd play Arsenal Sunday, if that’s a draw and we win again then we are 4-5pts ahead already after 4 games! It’s not a league winning lead by any means but sends a message.
We should easily win our next 4 games, they all play each other soon so our gap could increase. I believe Brighton, West Ham and Spurs will take a fair few points off the others.
Theres 3 tiers in the PL, Man City, then the other challengers then everyone else. It won’t always be like that of course but it’s how it currently is and this is the season to send a message by breaking all the records again and going for 6 trophies.

Yeah heard that rumour last night......I just cant see the scousers doing that even if a crazy bid for him comes in....but it would be extremely funny

If's,but's and maybe's,yet they sit in 4th with 7 points to their name unfortunately.

Next 6 or7 games or so we shall see where they are at,but looking who they have to play in them next 6 or 7 well,I don't see many problems for them at all.
