I was really expecting him to come out and say Wolves were shit and he's looking forward to leaving this summer.

For me these are our 1st 11 and 2nd 11.
Clearly the squad has space for an Eze type figure, a backup LB, a Neto level right sided player and a CF.
4 signings needed, although you're looking at £200m to secure the levels we want.
Realistically that ain't happening in 1 summer so get 2 in, bite the bullet until next window/ summer and get the rest of the work done.
the way its looking, well be lucky to get 1 signing that actually improves the first 11 right away. if we could get 2, (which would both be forwards as i think it would be very hard to get a player that improves midfield or defence now), we would be looking healthy. cheisa/neto and a striker would get the fanbase feeling optimistic and in good spirits for the start.

So there's the real quote.
"Whatever happens" is a pretty key set of words to miss out, Fab.
Nice- like a new signing : )
Take that, haters! Levy getting down to the real business now...
Just Chiesa or Jonathan David and I would be incredibly happy. I don't want us to spend a crazy amount on some of these average players. Chiesa would add class across our front three while David would add athleticism. As it stands, unless Solomon or Moore get moved, we've already got a very full compliment of attackers- we don't really need more than 1 signing.
I know it seems a bit melodramatic to be hoping for only 1 more signing, but if you do recall, we had a very memorable summer xfer window where we made NONE. The precedent has been set and the bar is low.
I suggest preparing for no new transfers in as a base case. At least that way you won't be driven utterly mad by Levy-ball.
It's easy to see that our front players missed a fair few weeks last season lol
43 goals and 32 assists isn't great, but without comparing to other teams there's no reference to how 'isn't great' that really is
We could really do with a chart of only forwards and their output across the league for last season. The above table doesn't include James Maddison for example (g4/a9) as he isn't a 'forward' so to speak

When we get approval to host 200 events a year just watch us go . I really hope he has pushed the price of Neck Oil up to 20 pounds a pint for our games , it’s always seemed to cheap to me . One really shouldn’t be getting change out of a fifty pound note for a pint and a sausage roll .
Still does not sound like he is close to leaving even the fact they included him in the q&a means that nothing is imminent.
He is a very good player for what he is, non-stop running and fighting.
I kind of get the feeling that this ability is underrated by modern fans in the same way passing 20 years ago used to be. Remember fans saying ‘’what does Modric do, he just passes it around’’.
Now it’s ‘’what does Gallagher or Onana do they just tackle, track runners and press but their passing is average’’.
Every morning he wakes up to his two super model girlfriends in his 96 bedroom, 400 bathroom house and looks out the window of his estate and sees his 5000 super car collection

Spence can play RB/LB. Assume he will be first backup if not sold
Indeed but then would he be willing to stump up £65M for an average at best 27 yr old CF? Mind you he stumped up £47.5M for BJ on someone’s recommendation which was far more than what Brentford has agreed.
That is the logical and sensible thing to do.
Strange if their new coach is going to be a high possesion user that Gallagher doesn’t suit that system. So what is the difference with how we play?
