6′-1″ stopper CH.
I would prefer a 6′-4″ tall stopper unless thislad can jump like Billy Wright.

Craddock has been good when he has played and i havent really seen Edwards, but as for the rest of them at centre back time to move on, Breen way too old and slow, Collins not much of a clue and Ward isn’t happy at the club.

Our attack is starting to work but we need the firm base at the back. We have good keepers and the right and left backs look good and do their jobs but Charltons second goal on saturday night really summed it up.

Mick McNugget – what you have said worrys me cause it does look like he will be here next season and im still not sure about him.

My cousin lives in Edinburgh and goes to watch Hearts quite regularly – he rates Berra as one of the best prospects in Scottish football. A young centre-half with pace – isn’t this what we’ve been crying out for?

Thanks E&S for alerting other clubs to this – I’m sure that if we miss out Mick and Jez will really appreciate it!

At least he’s looking for a defender – it must finally have clicked with him that we got no one at the back who is good enough for next season in either the prem or cola league

11. I assume you are happy with our defence then?

he must be good if his side can lose 4-0, thats not bad you know! DONT BUY HIM! we need to play, ward at right back, breen and craddock in the centres and elokobi at left back, that is one of the best defense you will find in the championship because they are all brick walls!

Gulp! Just seen that Mick is up for ‘Championship Manager of the Month’ for March, but don’t worry fellow wolves Phil Brown will be bound to win it and that’ll be THEIR season over. The curse never fails!!!

In football there is no smoke without fire. The smoke signals coming from Scunthorpe say Wolves want their goalkeeper, Joe Murphy, who has international aspirations and wants a move. If he comes here it won’t be to be a back-up.

got it in one matey.. yes the one thing that’s as certain as anything can ever be is..FREDDIE WILL BE GONE IN THE SUMMER AND MCARTHY WILL STILL BE MANAGER.

and your point of selling fred to fund another major siging is spot on. i love freddy and will be sorry to see him go. i would have loved to see fred keogh and seb as our regular strike force, but it’s never gonna happen.

a move for fred will kick start his career again, and hopefully the money will buy this kid or another one to strengthen the defence.

Well so far it’s only taken Mick 18 months to not find a good quick center half that we need.
May as well buy another couple of stikers in the summer Mick rather than this guy

Nathan Baggie, you’re an idiot, crawl back under your rock.

You can tell the season’s coming to an end, the press are speculating about summer signings.

I would hope we’re looking at all up-and-coming players, that’s the only way we’re gonna go forwards – or do we want to got back to the Graham Taylor/Mark McGhee way of paying over-the-odds for 30 year old-plus players?

It’s been obvious our defense has struggled, Charlton showed we cannot defend straight balls into the box and that we cannot defend against big centre forwards.

If we can make a profit on Eastwood in the summer then MM deserves a pat on the back. He’s been on the fringes this season and will be again next, he just isn’t good enough.

God, I’m looking forward to this run-in!!

UP THE WOLVES!!!!

I live in Scotland and Christophe Berra is an avaerage player who is no better than Russel Anderson who signed for Sunderland for £1 million and is rumoured to be a free agent at the end of the season.
Anderson has ten years of top flight SPL football and also has international experience.
Berra has been one of Hearts better players this season, however they have had a poor season and are £38 million in debt. If Wolves do go in for him they should not pay over the odds as the old firm are not interested.

Can someone still tell me why some people are still slating Mick, we have every chance of being in the play offs after a difficult season, and they still find excuses to have a go. Apart from not signing a centre back what is it that people have against him exactly ohh and the ‘Freddy’ question.

Look at the team we have, who do you think brought about that, the most exciting players in the team mick has signed or given them their chance.

Just because some idiots weren’t happy it seems to me that alot of sheep have started following their lead, instead of bleating they make that embarrasing freddy bleat every time we miss a goal, or they’re otherwise not happy.

Remember Hoddle will you, that was terrible half ar**d management, a team with no heart all wanting to leave. And what do we have now, the club is in a very healthy position, and its not all down to MM but he has played a big part in it, surely the thickest idiot would be able to realise that.

And for the people calling for Big Sam, have you ever seen how his teams play football

“We got not Strikers!” So he gets a really good one. (SEB) Whingers moan about not dropping him and playing Lord Freddy. “We need quick Centre-backs.” He looks at one, and still you whinge. Elokobi may yet turn out to be the other quick centre-back we need. He was also signed by MM. Give the bloke a break. Who knows how many players MM would have liked to have brought in but they wouldn’t come to us, or clubs were asking silly money for. You sit there in your overstuffed armchairs, and knock, knock, knock.

Try at least giving him credit for the things he has done well. Sure he’s made mistakes. we all do. Sure he’s not perfect. None of us are. He is Wolves through and through though. How many of you would have turned down the chance of trebling your wages to stay at a club you believe in. He did. (The South Korea job.) The abuse had already been very strong, and he could have easily shoved two fingers up, and said, “Have it. I don’t need this.” he stayed because he wants to be manager of Wolverhampton Wanderers. My team. Your team. That means something to me. Darling Freddy gets the chance to move downwards to a lesser club, and jumped at the chance. He played on Saturday like he wasn’t interested. Did he run to congratulate team-mates who had scored. NO!! Why the love affair with him from certain sections of our fans? The same fans who knock a good honest manager.

46 i am a true wolf too – i love Wolves but MM is not my favourite manager.

All this anti Mick has not come about just because of the very poor way he has managed certain players, the media and the fans this season, he has consistently baffled the majority of supporters with bizarre team selections and statements throughout the season.

This forum is a true reflection of how wolves season has gone – we are poor and the anti mick brigade come out then we play well and the happy clappers come out – it’s all about opinions.

I support the team and Wolves FC always but i am not happy with alot of what we fans have had to endure from the manager this year.

He has repeatedly played players out of their natural positions – his decision to stick with S Ward on the wing and leave Matt Jarvis (part of the League 1 team of the year last season and bought by MM) on the bench still baffles me!!!

He brought KK in on loan stating he would make a good impact player and then started games with him!!!

Fans questioned these and other similar tactics and were slated for not backing the team!!

So when MM finally decided to start with Jarvis, uses KK as a sub and the results improve it is SUPER Mick Macarthy again?!?! (He has only done in the last few weeks what fans asked for months ago! Imagine where we would be if he hadn’t been so bloody stubborn and pig-headed!)

Not a bad post BreretonWolf. With regard to the non-celebrations of Freddy, I’d noticed that on more than one occasion. Sometimes, you never know what these “stars” are like behind the scenes – quite often what we see as stubborn pig-headed management can often be explained by players being difficult and not fitting in with the rest of the squad and generally, we would never be told about it. I wonder what the likes of McIndoe and Bothroyd are really like behind the scenes ? I played plenty of amateur football over the years and I encountered plenty of bad apples in the changing rooms that upset team morale etc. Of course Freddy is a terrific talent and I’m one of his biggest fans and it could just be down to his frustration with MM, but…….I wish I was a fly on the dressing-room wall sometimes.

Did we not agree the sale of Naylor to Celtic before the season finished? This could already be a done deal, not took any notice of this geezer before but it seems that some of you have and have friends who have seen him play and it seems he looks OK. If Old firm fans see him as an attribute then I’m OK with that. Our current defence needs sharpening up without a doubt and I beleive that Mick realises this too otherwise why is he eyeing him up. D Ward must go, he is completeley crap and others are ageing so that is where we do need to strengthen. Hope Freddie does stay tho as well, I’m sure he won’t be so grumpy once he gets his chance and a couple of goals behind him

Report abuse

played him on football manager 07…quality on there but this is real life

and id still say he is quality. he’s a good age and with the addition of ANOTHER centre half we will be solid. I’d like to see wolves buy him, another CB, a young CB and another midfielder, preferably someone with experience.

good signing if we make it but £3m? that pricetag maybe much but maybe just right to ensure we get his signature

51 -
I wonder why our away form is great but home form not so good?! becuase its idiots like you shouting for freddie when we have two srikers playing extremley well and training ver hard (more than freddy at a guess)

lets get behind the boys like we did last season and get an automatic spot because no-one else seems to be getting the league by the scruff of the neck and go for it!!

Berra looks like a good player! But if Naylor is a regular for Celtic then he may only be average championship player and not worth the 3m quoted.

Come on lads lets get behind the boys and beat them lot to promotion and we can see the muppetts (Skinner and Chiles) crying in the play-offs again!!!!
