Pliskin Posted 29 August 2023 Share Posted 29 August 2023 Reports of a bid going on for Balde, and the Kelch set to be sold? Makes sense to me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Like he says it’s common knowledge and has come from many sources in and around the club. (The bit about Fosun selling and the US buyers not affording the price). I can’t vouch for the Nacho stuff as I haven’t been around Wolves this season - but generally the info there is way easier to get and more reliable than LCFC due to the leaks).

FoxinNotts Posted 29 August 2023 Share Posted 29 August 2023 Wolves are about to get even more money when they sell Nunes for circa £60m, I'm sure they can afford Nacho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzzell Posted 29 August 2023 Share Posted 29 August 2023 I expect him to be next out of the door along with Ndidi. I’d love for him to stay around but with one year left it makes sense to cash in, move him on and replace. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame that clubs leave their business till the last minute but even so it's great for us. Ndidi really isn't needed in Enzo's system & Nacho has never really proven himself to me. Put money in the bank & move two older players that were going to walk for free. Good Business ! I think both are highly effective at this level and no guarantee we get players in who can be as good. Time will tell, but I fear selling two starting players at this stage is a huge gamble. Kel for me is so effective in his all round game, we just look so much better when he’s on the pitch. I think that will prove very difficult to replace. very happy to see Daka, Tim, Souttar, Ward, Soumare, Kristiansen go - just don’t want to lose these two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure that kind of approach is what we need now. We need to stay competitive on the pitch and balance the books. No more forced sales of first team regulars - get the deadwood out and go for promotion for me. I just can’t see us signing and myegrating players of the requisite quality at this stage.

Time for to set a new norm, our utter negligence with contracts is going to hurt and so it bloody well should. I have no doubt a goal scorer is already scouted, and the time to stop acting like a bunch of amateurs should begin under this new regime, and that has to begin with anyone who wants to go and we don’t want or has a value which will revert to zero come the end of this next year. Harsh but it 100% has to happen in my mind. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jabbaranks Posted 29 August 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 29 August 2023 I'm at a bit of a loss as to what the big drama is about this. He's in the last year of his contract so if he doesn't go now it's more money splunked up the wall He's been spectacularly inconsistent throughout his 6 years with us He hasn't suggested in the first 4 games that he's going to be some kind of Championship beast It's not like we're talking about losing peak Vardy. I know we have a track record of dubious business decisions, but I'd be amazed if Enzo and co haven't got a replacement/alternate squad solution crystal clear in their minds. He's always come across as a lovely bloke, but business is business. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smudgerfox Posted 29 August 2023 Share Posted 29 August 2023 5 hours ago, Dahnsouff said: His expected goals and assists per 90 is even lower this season than last, not a large sample size far admittedly, but it’s against much poorer opposition. While you’re not watching the Tranmere game tonight - why not look up Kelechi’s goal and assist per minute record ? I find the lack of appreciation for him among the fanbase utterly baffling. The data analysts and the whiteboard professors of the game are always telling us how imperfect he is - he scores and assists ffs His goals got us to the FA Cup Final ffs - they’re the stats that count .. And who do you think is coming in to replace him if he goes? Some guy who’s scored a few in the Championship or for Man City U-:23….who could be great and who might not be .. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd be on a multiple year contract getting paid over 100k a week.

You could say that to about half the teams in the PL, according to the betting markets Fulham are the 8th most likely team to get relegated and that's still an implied 17.5% chance. Only Luton and Sheff Utd are considered an implied less chance than us of being in the PL next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the fire sale knock down price we'd potentially get for him, we're firstly not get a better player in but, more importantly, if our aim is quick promotion and the well over £100m that goes with it, our chances are significantly higher I'd suggest with him than without him. In comparison, a small price to pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
