Adama Traore

I'm hearing from an IKN that we're interested in this lad.
Moyes can convert him into a beast of a striker.

With his speed and build his hamstrings are a ticking time bomb, that would explode within a month of him signing for us.

He walks into this side everyday of the week and twice on a Sunday.

I honestly think most anything you can say negative about Traore you could say about Antonio during points in his career with us.
Whether he could learn/unlearn things or would respond in the same way to similar coaching - not sure.

There is interest - however very unlikely.
I will let you know if this changes.

Not convinced by his mentality. Seems to me his head drops when he gets bullied. Often disappears.

Exactly what we need, raw pace and power.
I'd say I can't believe done turning their noses up, but of course I can.
No chance though.

Eerie you might not be right often, but Traore would be the perfect long term replacement for Antonio if Moyes can convert him.
Have the rest of the year off.

yes please. He terrifies defenders. Antonio and Traore with Benhrama as a 10, I think would be one of the best attacking line ups in the league.
You could just ping balls into space and one of them would get it and keep the ball. Perfect for how we play.

i work with a few wolves lads and they were bitching and moaning about him a couple of years ago but last year said how they had to admit how much he had changed.
said when they got him he was the classic headless chicken but had learnt to time his runs etc and what a player he was for them, may have got player of the season for them.
definitely an antonio type winger, not as a forward, and a beast. when we played them last year at their place cresswell couldn't get within a3 yards of him and bounced off him the couple of times he tried to tackle him.
IF and a big IF we are interested in him, then at his age he will improve with us and then move on to bigger and better things.
no doubting the lad is a talent, just needs focusing.

But just for fun, imagine him AND Antonio up front together. No matter whether they'd score a goal or not, the sight of a defence running around after them would quite a sight!

And he greases his arms up. We don’t want any of that here.

No thanks. Seems like a classic headless chicken to me. Fast as anything for sure but there’s a reason he’s a bit part player.

I used to think he was better than Antonio, now I’m not so sure.

You can't teach pace and he is empirically one of if not the fastest player in the league.
He would have to learn to time his runs, which I have seen him not be able to do sometimes and play back to goal.
Certainly has the Antonio/Arnautovic tools, if not more so. Wolves are hurting a bit upfront right now, be interesting to see if Nuno thinks the same. Though they do have that Silva kid they payed £30 sum million for.

not sure where you get this notion that haller's suddenly worth nothing, and traore's a £40m+ player. as far as I know, he hasn't scored a goal or provided an assist this season

Offer haller...plus 40m you mean?

offer haller in a swap deal. I think their system would suit him better, and traore could learn the antonio role

This is happening as a winger.
I'd say it all sounds the same as Arnautovic & Antonio over the years when they were wingers.
I reckon this lad could be turned into a striker by Moyes, with the way we play he's got all the assets. He'd be unstoppable.

Half his appearances this season alone have been off the bench.
I've seen the good things he does on motd. Haven't yet been exposed to why he's a mid table team squad player.
