Wolves look the most likely side to become part of a top 7 tbh, wealthy owners with heavy links to the worlds most influential football agent. Think they will prove our main rivals for that illustrious 7th spot in the coming seasons.

yep most definitely, going places them what from it looks like
 

When he was injured he went with his mates to watch them Dave, he loves the club, he can move to the PL in 2 or 3 years and join a proper club that challenges for trophies, thats the reason why not.

What young player in the past 20 years or so has ever been bought directly into a 'big' team mate - usual progression is a mid table side then on from there isn't it really?

Be like United or Chelsea buying a player from Malmo, a German second division side or a championship side as their starting fullback,, just don't see it happening

They are likely to find what we have, that having money to spend isnt enough, its also spending it well, season after season.
 
I really hope the Doucoure rumors are true. Exactly what we need in transition. Really impressed by him. Fast, physical, but his vision and passing are extraordinary. Would transform our midfield IMO.

Still need a LB, though. Just kills us having to cover for Martina all game. Phillip Max for me, but anyone decent will do.
What we should really be doing mate is buying these players at source. Once they get into the premier and make a bit of a name for themselves their price goes up fivefold or more.

Haven't seen that much of Doucoure but happy to take your opinion of him. But you see it in the likes of Mane, Mahrez, VVD, Lanzini, Antonio, Kante and many more. Doucoure would probably cost £30m plus if he's as good as you say. The CB at Swansea's value has probably quadrupled in 18 months, and even our friendly Barnsley posters on here were telling us to buy him.

We're not that rich that we can cherry pick who we want. We've just seemingly wasted the best part of £200m which has likely put us back 2 years as we don;t have any more Lukaku's or Stones to sell. We need to take more punts on these lads. Kids like Tierney and Dembele at Celtic, Dendoncker at Anderlecht. If you ask @Nymzee he could probably give you a list a foot long as he watches all the European football.

We're supposed to have a fantastic scouting network. Well the question I ask is why are all these slipping through the net?
 
Remember the year before the Mosh came in we could have signed Yamolenko and Shaqiri if we could have scrounged a fiver from the back of the sofa.

Imagine he came a year earlier.
