    I think VP showed what a good manager he is last year and although he's going to lose his job soon it will be as a scapegoat for Fosun's failings.

    I know we haven't won a game since the Leicester game last season, but looking at that season first, after the Leicester game we were pretty much staying up with little to play for and a number of key players eyeing exits. Is VP responsible for that drop in team motivation? I'd say it was to an extent out of his control.

    As for this season I think he's been hamstrung by our owners with their wage cap and poor business in the transfer window. We now have a squad with potential but too few proven premier league quality players. We have now been beaten by all the promoted sides suggesting there Summer business was better than ours. The problem clearly lies with Fosun's penny pinching approach to running the club.

    I didn't think that through did I... I'm still apportioning most of the blame with Fosun though.

    When VP gets sacked who's going to want the job!?

    ....and what players would want to play for the club come the inevitable panic buys in January?

    Look at the state of the clubs that were owned by Chinese after they left-its frightening.
    These times are very similar to the dark days in the mid eighties.
    Remember though, Wolves probably are not the club for you if you want to basically compete.

    Jeff Shi is the Chinese Bhatti.
