Stick a bid in for Saint Maximin too, and Taarapt should be easily got back from Benfica for the most exciting, bamboozlingist attack ever. It would also lessen the loss of Kane because there would be no point in having him anyway.

We can also try and tempt LuaLua out of retirement!

Most people on here didn’t want Grealish a few years ago. People seem to seriously underrate Premier League players on here but pine for people they’ve never heard of once a random link surfaces

Grealish until fairly recently has been a complete scrote off the pitch and only recently seems to have matured. That's what put some people off him. Traore on the other hand, is just shit.

Totally unjust and unfair. He is certainly not ‘shit’

I really dont rate Adama, you can look at his dribbling stats all you want, but he is a dumb olayer on the pitch. Dont need to go back to last year to see how frustrating he is, just take a look at the Wolves opening game. 2 HUGE misses because he is all physical and no brains. 40M is way too much just for flair.

I see it that he causes chaos for others to benefit from. Agree he probably won't improve now but I'd still take him, maybe
30 mil.

Such a shame that Pedro Neto got injured and might be out until February, I certainly would've taken him from Wolves (now it would be too risky). Adama is a bit too expensive for what he brings imo.

I could see this happening late in the window, maybe a deadline dayer! Some would call it a panic buy! I’m not sure where I stand on it :nailbiting:

Traore and Saint-Maximum are my guilty pleasures

I love watching both.

The former I think would have been perfect to play alongside kane and son ironically.

Look I know he is massively inconsistent and isn't exactly a football genius but when you have that much pace and power in the right set up you can cause absolute chaos.

If anyone saw the Wolves vs Leicester game last weekend it summed up Traore perfectly.

He makes an incredible run, beasting between the two Leicester CBs, to set up a perfect 1v1. All he has to do is slot it past the keeper but he completely bottles the finish and doesn't even get his shot on target, skewing it wide. Wolves then go on to lose the match by a single goal.

He'll do the exact same thing if he comes to us. No thanks.


Ah. So we'd be replacing Bergwijn with, umm, Bergwijn.

I believe it was after the Jan 94th minute winner game, there was certainly some noise from our dressing room of how impossible he was to stop and that our players were advocating his purchase back then.

He ripped Jan a new one that game but as a team we somehow did enough by seemingly taking in turn to hack him down.
