Buying Moutinho for 5m from Monaco, so yet another Portuguese player.

[Football] Wolves at it again

Genuinely surprised they didn't pick up Ronaldo. They are going to struggle to complete the set now.

Indeed, I'm fairly sure he was purchased for a lot more than that originally. Still, all above board so what's not to like eh? If your club is in bed with a super agent, you are laughing. I feel like it's akin to Apple buying up some island and declaring themselves a sovereign entity.
I get the impression they're trying to stay up. Interesting.............................

Blimey! That's an absolute BARGAIN.
Although I'm really surprised he didn't stay long at Barca after his move from Liverpool...

Wolves will do more than just survive this season imo. They are building a top 8 side.

So were Everton last season.
Have Huddersfield done much/any business yet? They'd be in my three with Cardiff. Not sure about the final spot though.

This isn't meant at a dig but more as an observation. Haven't 90% of wolves transfers this summer been simply purchasing the players they had on loan last year + Rui Patricio?
The world cup has made me miss so much transfer news that I may well out of the loop.

Depends if Zaha stays or goes I would think!
It would be funny and I wouldn't be surprised to see that happen. The standard media line is that Wolves will be fine and finish in the top 10 but I'm not so sure. It is an incredibly tough division and yes they've clearly got some very good players but so do the 19 other clubs. I don't look at their squad and think it's any better than say Huddersfield, Watford or even ourselves who are all expected to be bottom half. Moutinho is and has been a good player but he's 32 in September and on a downward trajectory. He's also never played here before so will need to get used to the physicality of the Premier League.
Personally, of the promoted clubs I expect Fulham to finish highest. They have an excellent manager, some quality players already and in Serri have made the signing of the summer.

Basically yes, I'm not sure why they are so hyped. So they smashed the Championship but so did we and Newcastle and moving up to the PL is not a step up but 5 steps up. I think their odds are ridiculous and I'd rather have our set up than theirs
