Our new boss has reportedly arrived in the UK in order to beat the new quarantine restrictions which kick in at 4am tomorrow (8th).
Our 33rd manager/head coach/selector will follow the guy with the second best win percentage in our 144 year history. Big shoes. The second Portuguese coach of the Fosun reign inherits a squad which seemed to stall last season for many well documented reasons. Let's hope he can re-focus them and it will be really interesting to see how he develops the squad over the next couple of months.
Almost as interesting as finding out how the people of Wolverhampton will fare trying to pronounce his name. All the best Bruno, I know about a much about you as I did your predecessor before he joined, success came in a big wave for Nuno and you've got a head start on him but of course don't necessarily expect the dramatic step change we got with him. But all fans expect progress and I genuinely hope that we have some exciting times ahead of us.
Welcome Bruno

Total domination by Italy and there won’t be many better striker partnerships in the tournament than Immobile and Insigne

If the plan is to make funds available for Lage to spend then the sales of Patricio, Neves, Vinagre, Sanderson and Moutinho would raise around £50m. Should be enough to have a rebuild although Vitinha and Ait Nouri would eat into that if we signed them. But you would hope Fosun would also be dipping into their pockets a bit

Hot tips in the media this weekend is that Nuno will soon be announced as the new Everton manager, with Fonseca going to Spurs

Congratulations to former Wolves star Geoff Thomas on being awarded an MBE. 18 years ago he was diagnosed with leukaemia and was given three months to live. Having survived that he dedicated his life to raising money for charities to fight leukaemia and next week is part of a team cycling the whole Tour de France course aiming to raise another £1m

Never known the betting so open on a major football tournament. France favourites at 5/1 and Portugal 7th favourites at 8/1

Have had a grilling from the other half on Nuno ball so she can inform her twitter followers with some expert inside knowledge 🤷♂️

I thought England were shorter odds than that but probably fair given that we'll play 1st or second from the Portugal, France, Germany group in the next round (if we qualify from our group).

If this pre season is anything to go by, Lage is even more negative than Nuno.
This lot are going down. Trying to find a Bookie that will offer decent odds for under 30 points but can't. They know what's what.

We were better in the second half today and really should have got a draw at least.
