But don't worry we can guarantee something we have more chance of signing Ronald McDonald that Christie or Byram. Why do you think iorfa is going on a free?

He has 6 months left on his contract and is surplus to requirements at Wolves, if no one picks him up in January for a small fee he will be a free transfer in the summer as he will be 24 then - Birthday 24th June. Ebank Landell is in the same boat but he was at Bramall Lane I think a few seasons ago so he is now tainted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finance issues at the club sorted, we could maybe get rid of a few of the contracts in January paid up such as Abdi, Jones, Boyd then start next season with a virtual clean slate. Sell Bannan and Reach and we will be relegated. I have absolutely no doubt about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james o connor Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 The obvious ones are the pointless money sucking crocks such as abdi , hooper and Hutchinson . Unfortunately we are stuck with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't sell them and we could face severe sanctions/points deductions. We probably don't have any choice. And I don't think we'll get relegated.

Reach is playing well but is our most salable asset we could get anything from £10-15m with the crazy that is the current transfer market. A fit Fessi will be more important to us this season than Reach Bannan is playing ok but spends most of the match in his own half so we are not using him well, if this continues take the money Villa offered reportedly £8m and as i said previously reinvest a few million and bring in Nick Powell as his replacement. With Powell you get the creative flare of Bannan but he also scores goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately we are stuck with them Agree with Hooper but if the other two are not injured the club is not trying to get them in the shop window, Hutch has 18 months left of his contract and according to everyone i speak to Abdi is a good player. Neither Hutch or Abdi have been involved in any under 23 games in over 3 months - why?????? I would also look to offload Fletcher he has 18 months left and for the £30,000+ he is on he just does not deliver enough for me and he is once again injured. I would also be speaking with Norwich to see if they want to sign Rhodes permanently for say £5m so we at least only make a small loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is one of those things a new manager comes in wants his own players and other get pushed out. We as a club should understand that better than most. Venancio under Carlos not deemed good enough - Under Jos was one of the best players of the season. Westwood, Hutch main stays of our team under Carlos - not deemed good enough by Jos. Iorfa has over 100 championship appearance is a good age and physically a beast at 6ft 2", can play both full back and wing back and is an improvement on what we currently have, if we are shopping in the free agents market he would be a good addition in the summer if not get him on loan in January. There is a lot of Championship and league one interest in him and also rangers in Scotland He is also currently playing in a back 3 on the right side which again would fit right into our team, has played all season for the under 23's so probably fitted than half our team. https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/wolves-pair-set-january-offers-15475060 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hack-Abusi Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Release Matias (maybe pay as you play or 1 year contract if able to prove fitness) Westwood Abdi Boyd Jones Hooper (maybe pay as you play or 1 year contract if able to prove fitness) KLee (maybe pay as you play or 1 year contract if able to prove fitness) Pudil Transfer List Fletcher Nuhiu Fox Hutchinson (never going to play unfortunately) Stobbs Van Aken Loan Most of the non first team youngsters, Baker and Preston etc Resign Palmer Cash in if good deal comes in Jawow Reach Fessi Sign Centre back left back right back defensive midfielder players with PACE in all areas!

TommyCraig Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I reckon Thornley is gonna be a great player. Baker I have no high hopes for, hope I'm wrong but can't see it. Hooper and Lee are done I think. Sick of hoping for them to return tbh. Bannan can be fantastic but seems to be on a downward slope lately. Really hope we can keep hold of Reach but if needs must and all that. Next season got to be a massive rebuilding of the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baker- Maybe a loan, but definitely not good enough yet. Pudil- Will be 34 by next season, needs to go soon. Van Aken- Try and recover any of what we spent on him. Fox- If anyone will take him, contract is unfortunately until 2020. Abdi- Release Boyd- Release Jones- Release Matias- Can't be on pennies, maybe see if he will take a pay cut, if not release. Joao- Way too inconsistent, can't be relied upon. Try and get a decent fee. Nuhiu- Nowhere near good enough, love the bloke but simply has to go. Hooper- Try and get him to stay, maybe some sort of pay as you play deal etc, if not wages too high and struggling for fitness. Release (Possibly) Lee- As unfortunate as it is, if he is never going to play again we aren't really in a position to keep paying him at the moment are we. Rhodes- Hopefully he keeps scoring for Norwich and we can get a very nice fee for him. Try and keep Westwood if we can sort finances out, Hutchinson too if rumours are true and he is fit. Consider any nice offers for Bannan, Forestieri or Reach, if not keep and build around them. So pretty much get rid of everyone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
