Usmanov wasn't amongst the first wave of oligarchs for one - he came afterwards, wasn't part of the Yeltsin crew backed by the US propesed plan of the loans for shares and the raping of the people through the voucher scheme also a us proposal they adopted, which enabled the literal carving up and theft of Russian resources and wealth.
Usmsnov 'actually' built himself up through Metalloinvest initially by using a very western method of acquisitions of smaller companies to build what eventually be some USM.
In fact he was the guy who basically was charged and successfully took back all the stolen parts of Gazprom by that first wave of Oligarchs including western businessmen - people like Bill Brower etc.
Is he clean - far from it, but he is far removed from people like Abramovic, Berozovsky etc. Who are utter scum

He didn't want us to become a museum so he's turned us into a morgue

The issue is there are key positions we can't get away with not strengthening a six and a forward for me bare minimum

You had me going there, and then finished by admitting that he isn't clean.

Btw sports washing, not sure you understand the meaning of it, it has zero today with laundering money mate, it's about someone with a negative public image using their money through a populist area like sport, charity etc in order to give long term an altered public perception of them in a better light.
In thst regard it worked completely fir Abramovic - but Usmsnov kinda has t even done that as to sports wash his image he'd need to actually be the public face of the club

Doubt there's a billionaire who is mate.
Bill gates did some nasty things especially to independant software programmers over the years to get what he wanted.

Perhaps I'm guilty of using the terms interchangeably. Luckily, I've got someone with your advanced understanding on hand to set me straight.
If, as you say, Usmanov isn't the face of the operation, nor does he appear to have any concern whatsoever about how the club is run (essentially just leaving Kenwright to do as he sees fit day-to-day), what's going on?
Looks to me like he's laundering this 'gift' that he decided to give his favourite accountant.
I'm not the one posting laughing emojis at the thought of Usmanov's involvement here being suspect.

I know we can’t attract the high calibre players, some of the players we are linked with are grim tho, if there is any truth to those links is another matter, they nail home were we are as a club. It’s only Gallagher that gives me any enthusiasm.
I actually think MGW could be a really good signing for us, 22 goal involvements last season, only 21 - his value should only go up really, been reading some wolves forums today and they dont want him to go, but if they continue with 343 they think he'll be sold after the next bid

Cos that makes sense …..
So what we have to do is get younger promising players in GibbsWhite, Broja etc or even buy them younger.

Those players you mentioned are some of the ones I’m unenthusiastic about
I remember a pre season under moyes, think it was one when we signed beckford & magaye gueye - we won every game in pre season. Then we started away to Blackburn, played awful & lost 1-0, we played in that pink kit

From what I’ve seen I’m not fussed. That’s not to say I don’t want the lad to do well if he’s signs, I’ll always want players to be a success here.
