Only if he can actually deliver a cross that doesn't miss everybody and go for a throw in. I watched wolves last weekend and his delivery was horrendous. As usual.

I’m beginning to wonder if Nuno is Mourinho lite or if Mourinho is Nuno lite.
Who is Bakelite then? Just some plastic?
I only watched the last few minutes but Traore sent in 2 superb crosses at least one of which should have resulted in a goal.
All he lacks is consistency and with better players around him I am sure he can improve his success rate.
Yes I agree there were a couple of good ones, but over the 90 mins he was awful and I think they were more luck and law of averages than skill. Head down, big boot, throw in or goal kick.
If he hasn’t learnt how deliver an accurate cross by now I don’t think he ever will.
He’ll probably be brilliant tonight though.

He's not good. I couldn't believe 75% of this board wanted to drop 40m on him. Actually I can totally believe it.
only if we're playing NFL football tomorrow.
Traore is as a football player as pointless as a cock in Ellen DeGeneres' sleepover party
Mourinho shite seems like a more apt summary of him...
At least Jose made it a couple of months into the season before the wheels fell off, rather than weeks.
True. But I didn’t want to be “mean”. Jose was charismatic and a funny bastard. Nuno has a beard
To be fair to Nuno, he's not had time to train with the full/main squad much. New players to bed in, players that don't know one another, etc etc..... then the other international break, quarantine and injuries galore.
I always end up hopeful on match day. Idiot.
Nuno is like that homeless guy that's always outside the local Tesco Metro, he's nice and polite so you humour him and make small talk when pressed, and even hand over the odd fistful of change occasionally, but really you'd prefer him to leave you alone and ideally disappear altogether, and if you see him as you approach you'll probably carry on driving and do without whatever you were after in the first place...
Funnily enough we did better on the pitch earlier on, when he'd had less time to instil his "methods"...
Yes work certainly needs to be done but he’s definitely another option that we could do with as in reality we never looked like scoring on Sunday especially in the second half
Couple of chances wasted in the first
I accept Traore is a marmite type of player but he terrorises defences and with a bit of decent coaching could be special
why do you want to wash your paint holder? (only one l/2 t's BTW)Right now I just want us to play well and/or win games.....
A pallete cleanser can't come quick enough after the weekend..... Let's build upon what was good in that game; build up some steam and then smash the scum on Sunday.
COYS!!!!!
Don't mention it.
One for the youngsters.
Yeah his crossing thus far in his career has been shite, but just think what Nuno could do if he got his beardie hands on him...
Oh...
:nunofacepalm:
Given that he's having to serve up using Mourinho's ingredients, its not surprising that the same dish gets put in front of us
I suspect that as the new guys bed in and he establishes some control over the players, then more of the Wolves at their best will emerge (ie the Neves Moutinho kind of midfield performances)
I really think the guy is being harshly judged, and should be given time to get the best out of the squad. The first half against the chavs was pretty decent stuff, given that at least 3 of the team were having pretty awful performances
Outside my local Tesco there’s always Energy Salesmen blocking your way in being a nuisance
Yesterday it was OVO
Give me the homeless any day and I usually buy them a sandwich or something
