Their waiting for the match thread

Hi champions league chasing deluded Wolves, you are turning into that skummie lot from( B) ell--End Rd... All I'll say is... We are better than our position, and we'll give you a proper match.

Ey up folks. You should know by now that we're not gobsh¡tes. You have started really well, so well done 👏. You will probably beat us, as you have a lot of pace,and we can't score for sh¡te.

So I'll go for a 2-1 home win. Its a long season boys and girls, try not to get carried away. 👍

We won't, we just know for a fact we will finish several points ahead of you because we are better.

Ey up lads, welcome to the preview thread which is much better now that you lot have turned up
Where is Waltzing hiding?

I'm sure it won't be an easy game. You did well to stay up last season. You remind me a lot of Swindon, when they were in the Prem. Our lad "Mutchy" had moved to them.

Oi Oi

Tino How's it going mucker?

I'm ok babe are you

No problems with me mate, just getting older like everyone else

Better than the alternative

That's what the wife keeps telling me

Tino

You ok pal ?

Scotland U19s got the draw they needed against Sweden to win their group in the European championship qualifiers. Their captain Elliot Watt of Wolves got the decisive goal

With Gibbs White captaining the England U19s at the weekend the future is bright for the Wolves academy

And Diogo Jota today made it 2 goals in 2 games for the Portugal U21s this week

Plenty of reports around that Wolves are in talks to bring in Senegal striker Mbaye Diagne in January. He plays for Kasimpasa in the Turkish League and has scored 24 goals in 29 games since joining them earlier this year

Can't see him being any more than a second option but he would surely be an improvement on Bonatini and is a big unit by the look of it though his record prior to this season has been pretty poor to be honest.

I'm sure the club are looking at quite a few options if they're after another striker in January. This is probably the start of many speculative rumours

Keita Balde another being linked. Would be a better option than miss Diagne you would think.

Surprised at the links to Keita at Inter. Wouldn’t come cheap and is a creative winger. So another one to add to Costa, Traore and Cavaleiro in that position.

Think a goal scorer is a higher priority

Took me a minute Cinci, then realised you must be as old as I am.

Lost me

Diagne can score with either foot and has headed goals to his credit too. 6 of his goals are from penalties. He's valued at 2.5m and is contracted until 2022. He usually plays as an out and out striker in a 4-3-2-1 system at Kasimpasa. He's certainly a lively chappie as he's usually the one fouled for his penalties.

I'm sure he'd fit in with our system.
==================================

Balde is on loan at Inter from Monaco and he too is contracted until 2022. Plays more as a winger and has only started 3 games this season and 9 off the bench. Not scored yet, but was a decent striker when at Lazio, having almost as many assists as goals.

Valued at 27m, which seems a bit steep to me.

Hope these facts give a little insight into players, rather than just putting up their names.

Where's Perton when the rumours start?

I guess someone should start a transfer rumour article, rather than derail Gem's preview match thread.

Yes please! I feckin' hate lazy journalistic guess work
