# Wolverhampton Wanderers: Fans respond to Tim Spiers post on ‘unplayable’ Adama Traore

**Some Wolverhampton Wanderers fans have been responding to a post from [Tim Spiers](https://twitter.com/TimSpiers/status/1260457660085948416) after he shared his latest article for [The Athletic](https://theathletic.co.uk/1808738/2020/05/13/wolves-adama-traore-tony-pulis-middlesbrough/) on his official Twitter page.**

[The report](https://theathletic.co.uk/1808738/2020/05/13/wolves-adama-traore-tony-pulis-middlesbrough/) transcribes an interview that the journalist conducted with former Middlesbrough coach Tony Pulis, who managed Adama Traore during his time at the club. Indeed, the 24-year old played in 26 games in all competitions under him, scoring five goals and providing nine assists, according to [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/adama-traore/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/204103/plus/0?saison=&verein=&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=617).

[Pulis claimed](https://theathletic.co.uk/1808738/2020/05/13/wolves-adama-traore-tony-pulis-middlesbrough/) that he could not speak higher of any player with whom he has worked and was generally full of praise for the Spaniard.

Traore has arguably built a reputation of being a [fan favourite](https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/wolves-fans-choose-adama-traore-18077922) in the Midlands, using his pace and power to good effect this season by netting six times and making 10 assists in 43 matches in all competitions, as per [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/adama-traore/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/204103/plus/0?saison=2019&verein=&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=).

One Wolves supporter described him as ‘unplayable’ and another fan claimed that Pulis sounded ‘like Brendan Rodgers’, the ex-Liverpool and current Leicester boss, when talking about him. Scroll down through some further replies from the Molineux faithful below:

> I liked the idea of swapping wings each half so he could hear Pulis yell and cajole throughout the game. PFM level: off the scale.
