More because one of the head honchos will need to meet with said player and agent face-to-face generally.Just curious why some people think we can’t secure a transfer in or out while we are in Korea? They do have a mobile phone network there right?
He's apparently the best defender in the turkish league in very long time.This guy has a goat football agent. He’s been linked to everyone and everywhere and so far his career was South Korea china and turkey. Not saying he’s a bad player but holy shit
If it was a girl, Id still shag her once. This is much worse!!If Conte wants him, Wolves wants to sell, and he is willing to come to us, fuck it let's get him We shouldn't act like players are girls that didn't want to date us. And sometimes getting humbled like he did may actually work in his - and our - favor and make him want to double down to prove something.
Why do fans in here not believe there own eyes?
An "experiment" for Conte FFS
Traore is a bust, at PL and La Liga level, lets just all move on and let muscles go and plough a furrow at Brentford, or Forest.

Such as?
Being relegation fodder?
I mean did that post sound like a good idea when it was in your head?

I'd be tempted to splash out this relatively small fee. Conte could scratch his itch to experiment with Traore at RWB and have him as attacking option if need be.
Yes, I get all the criticism but, he on his day, he can be such a threat going forward.
Traore doesn't want to be a RB, so how Conte wants to experiment there is a moot point.Wolves and Traore behaved like cunts. Wolves wanted more than they should have got, Traore thought he was too good for us and went for Barca. Now they want 10million and now he will accept us. Fuck them both! They deserve very little money and he deserves everton and donkeys like dele and winks next to him.

Do you watch football matches, or do you read stats at the end of the game?
How many goals has Modric scored or assisted?
But how many goals have his teams scored because he's on the pitch?
I'm not comparing Traore to Modric. I'm pointing out that there are plenty of players who's presence is enough to allow their team to create and score more.
Carrick was another.
Our own Dembele was a prime example.
I don't advocate signing Traore. But I could see how we as a team could score more/more different goals by having him at RWB instead of nosebleed Emerson. He could get the ball up the pitch sledgehammer style, and drag 2 or 3 defenders with him. At that point, all he really needs to do is get the ball to one of the front 3 and let them do the scalpel work.
Oh i forgot you are his assistant
Top flight - EPL & La Liga:
App: 172
Mins: 9304 = 103.37 x 90mins
….in SIX seasons!!!
Goals: 8 (avg 1.33 per season!)
Assist: 18 (avg 3 per season!)
G/per 90 = 0.077
A/per 90 = 0.174
......As an attacking player!?!?!
..............................................................
Some said he would go out to Spain and 'beast' it:
First 2 games: 151mins / 0 goals / 2 assists
The remaining 15 (no injuries): 227mins / 0 goals / 0 assists
Dreadful.
.....Yet this is the guy that some peeps still want to convert into a WB(*) that's gonna help get us to the next level????
(*Even though he's said recently he doesn't want to play WB!)
Madness!!!

If he were that good, how come no other team has snapped him up for the ten million being touted?
He's nothing but a Frank Bruno wannabe who can run fast. I mean if you can't score a goal or two or an assist or three at Barcelona then where can you?
The fixation with shite players like this is incredible, as soon as we get rid of deadwood like Berj, or Dele than some in here want to bring another inept footballer in.
It's a fucking pastime for some of them.
