It is no coincidence that all the Wolves players you mention they have kept are foreign.Cjay wrote: ↑Mon Jan 13, 2020 11:30 pm I mean obviously i want us to go up otherwise as you say, no point.
But i want us to go up with a genuine plan and ambition.
Not just to take the money and run like the Norwich owners or just piss money up the wall signing anybody like the Villa ones.
But Wolves have shown how you can do it, you recruit well season on season and build towards a goal.
You keep your best players, Neves, Jota, Boly etc.
You slowly remove players who arent at the standard you want to be at Afobe, Douglas, Batth.
And you add players who are and who suit your style, Traore, Jimenez, Moutinho.
You build, you are ruthless when needed and plan.
It requires a well oiled machine from top to bottom, all pulling in the same direction and i loathe to say that because Wolves cheated their way out of this league in my book but it paid off and fair enough.
Look at the big two, Liverpool and Man City, very few British players in either team.
