Hoever moving the other way - with a sell on. That is some Chelsea/Abramovic moneyballin right there.

When they sell youngers at the wrong time it’s come back to bite them on the arse.  Hoever’s looked a good player.

 

Wolves did their own bit of “moneyballin” in this deal probably on both counts.

Suddenly feeling a lot more optimistic about our chances this season.

May even sneak a Europa league spot with a good run.

Think Paul Merson might need to revise his opinion about of Liverpool dropping out of the top 4.

De Bruyne and Mo for starters.

We are gonna crack 100 points this year.  Nobody is getting near us.

It's win-win for both clubs. They have lots of forward depth already and players that can step up with Jota gone and they get a talented young player back. We get a player we needed and rate for a low up front cost.

Literally just going to post this picture as a reply to fucking EVERYTHING now. Best. Meme. Ever.

This is getting repped on sight all year.

They were both established internationals in their early 20s when Chelsea sold them; that era of moronic Chelsea departures is entirely on Mourinho's lack of judgment. Big difference to selling an 18 year-old with four senior appearances.

Matic, Lukaku went at around 21 as well.  They ended up trying to buy both back.  Ake, He’s far better than the like of Zouma.

[Grinch 2,887]

Talk about cherry on the cake if we get a centre back on top of sorting Thiago & the long standing problem of having fuck all forward depth.

 

[Tj hooker 1,825]

So just to wrap up we've spent 9 million today as a down payment for Thiago and Jota  sold Ki Jana hoever for 9 million to Wolves with add ons that's just mad .

Edwards could literally sell sand to the Arabs and make a handsome profit .

[Dr Nowt 23,934]

Klopp’s mate Wagner is the Schalke manager isn’t he.

 

Didn’t we try to buy Chilwell after he’d had him on-loan at Huddersfield for a year?

Or shampoo to Guardiola.

Interesting comments in thread from Honigstein.

[Anubis 17,266]

Edwards has done us a solid by negotiating paying for Dingo over the period of his contract. Initial payment offset by Hoever. Sell one reasonable academy player per season and he’s funded.

[therevivalist 78]

Wow, only 24 hours ago it was Sarr...now we're getting Jota. Sarr v Jota? Compare and contrast please!

[Anubis 17,266]

Dingo played for Wolves. Sarr plays for Watford.

[Anubis 17,266]

Some bellend on Foxes Talk wants FIFA to investigate our deal for Jota because we’re only making an initial payment of £4m. Don’t think he understands that transfers can be split into chunks of the parties agree, or that FIFA would be the wrong organisation to investigate anywayZ

Are we really interested in Jota? The first mention was some Wolves fan calling himself Callum on Twitter. When Jota wasn’t in the squad last night (his partner has just given birth) this lad tweeted that he was on his way to Liverpool. He later admitted it was made up bollocks, but by then LFC Twitter has picked it up and gone into overdrive. My skeptometer is at a high level. 
 

EDIT: As high a level as Scott’s scouting.

Callum off of Twitter is really @El Rojo.
