As we know all too well, a player can push as much as they like, doesn’t make a sale happen.

Yeah but there's also other factors like wether Charlie CK66 or Mendes 666 is the one orchestrating the pushing.

 

[doctor stefan Freud]

lol, if he pushed anything it would end up in orbit

Space turds

 

[tiger666]

Traoré pushing very hard to have his move. He feels Wolves should not stand in his way, etc…

Fella just needs some skidmarks on his desk. Job done.

Yeah, I’m surprised the hear Wolves are pushing back so much.

 

[CoopsieDeadpool]

Sarr was their best player today and gave Reggy problems early on. Only 23, too. Wouldn't say no to him.

Probably already been said a million times, but surely it would cost us even more to get Sarr from Watford, than it would to get (2 years left of his contract) Traore from Wolves?

 

[jurgen]

Seems like we’ve generally been linked to the right type of players throughout this whole window...which hopefully means we know what the squad needs..

But also seems like the Don is effectively having to make dinner with whatever leftovers he can find in the fridge...

I’m available

Good thing it’s only a 3 game season

It isn't it's a 38 game season but that's not relevant to how I feel.

 

[CoopsieDeadpool]

So, manic Monday or manic depression Monday?

I've got each personality on standby.

 

[Mr Pink]

Fucking hell some of you need to chill out. There's 2 days left yet, save it for when the window closes.

That old chestnut lol.

 

[CoopsieDeadpool]

Sarrs mustard. Need him over Adama

Greeted with unanimous approval that one mate.

 

[doctor stefan Freud]

I've got each personality of standby.

They’re both twats

In retrospect, this has been a fairly predictable window:

1 month to go: "FFS, there is still a month to go, plenty of time to get our business done!"

1 week to go: "FFS, bunch of bedwetters in here, plenty of time to get our business done!"

48-hours to go: "FFS people, we are top of the table, and plenty of time to get our business done!"


September 2: "Huh, I did not see that coming, I thought for sure we would get at least 1 deadline day deal done!"

Shhhh, bedwetter! We can’t express our very understandable concern that we APPEAR to be struggling to get deals done.

Traoré pushing very hard to have his move. He feels Wolves should not stand in his way, etc…

Don’t like this, we all lost our shut when Harry was playing up. At least traore is still doing his job!

 

[Archibald-CPH]

we told today that he has been drafted in by traore to help with the transfer and also he controls / has huge say in wolves transfers and has a bigger say in ours than some would like

Can someone explaine me this?

Standard for us

 

[ardiles]

Traore should get Neville to do an interview with him.

 

[CoopsieDeadpool]

I really think this is the guy we should over-spend a little on to get.

I know the whole "end product" argument - but I just think he is a guy who could really transform the attack. In addition to pure pace, he can be, along with Kane, a great hold-up outlet, which allows us to get out of our end, and possess the ball for a spell.

And, I think he is a guy who can help the team acclimate to Nuno's coaching and style.

Couldn't agree more.

He's (seemingly) the managers number 1 target & we should do all we can to get him in.

I know people can say "But NDombele was Poch's number 1 target & look how that's turned out". And they'd have a valid point!

The difference in this instance, is the fact that we know Traore can & will perform in the PL.

We know Traore and the manager get on extremely well & there's very clearly a bond between them. This is something that can't be understated in football. 2 way respect will always reap rewards.

We know Traore adds something we're seemingly lacking.

You know what you're getting with Traore. He wouldn't just be an expensive punt.

Unlike NDombele, who's just been an expensive ****.

 

[wadewill]

Feels like we’re becoming Man City in the scenario, if we really want him pay the money and wolves will let him go. If we don’t let’s not waste time and move on

Its the football food chain

 

[Doonsbury]

I also feel Wolves should not stand in his way

We can't have it both ways. Should we have let Kane go?
