Thank you and great insight agaun. Must admit I'm not convinced there is the financial flexibility, or desire from the top, to build what is needed to help us hopefully challenge towards and in the top half. On the plus side the season ticket announcements, promises on that kept and extended was very encouraging I do feel this was partly due to supporter groups pressure. There's a lot of squad players we're not going to get close to making even back on (Silva, Guedes, Johnstone ...), hope it won't be as last minute as I fear.

Offering to make a 32 year old one of, if not the, highest paid players on a long contract is a worry.

Still all sounds very reactive with no consistency in planning, hope I'm wrong. Sorry 😂

Spot on. A3/4yr contract for Semedo as 32 doesn’t make sense to me. He doesn’t offer much in defence and not much in attack. Time to move on, a £35m flop for me.

A refreshing article again with some in sight of the new regime. Fosun have to get it right this season for the club the fans and all concerned. We wait with bated breath to see how the new setup takes the club forward. Watch this space!

It will be interesting to see how successful the new management team at Wolves are at clearing house this summer. I count at least 8 players (Johnstone, S. Bueno, Traore, Doyle, Guedes, Hwang, Kaladjzic, Fabio Silva) that they would happily move on from permanently and there are several more they’d be happily to send out on loan.

If they can successfully move on 5/6 from that list that frees up a substantial amount of funds and undoes a lot of our remaining ‘bad business’ from previous recruitment.
