Wolves fans have had a lot to say about Jhon Arias recently.
The Colombia international arrived at Molineux in the summer, and was supposed to be the marquee signing for Wolves.
Wolves shelled out close to £20 million to sign him from Fluminense, and big things were expected. Arias even took the number 10 shirt, which had been worn by Matheus Cunha.
But Arias has struggled since the moment he arrived.
He did score on his debut in pre-season, but that has arguably been his only highlight.
Arias has turned in so many poor performances, and some have finally run out of patience following his most recent outing against Manchester United.
Wolves fans think Jhon Arias should be sold in January
Arias has only been at Molineux for five minutes, but many supporters are now calling for an early sale.
There has been speculation about his future in recent weeks, with Flamengo reportedly keen on Arias.
Palmeiras have also been mentioned, as have his old club Fluminense.
A January exit for Arias was previously dismissed by one journalist. But many fans are now adamant that he should be sold at the earliest opportunity.
@Tofts8: “Let him go, I’d rather bring in someone who is Championship ready.”
@stu_polak82: “Just let him go. Done absolutely nothing. Although judging on how we replace players just think how bad his replacement will be 😂.”
Kaka’s verdict on Jhon Arias at the Club World Club seems totally wide of the mark right now 😲
Can you see Arias ever coming good for Wolves?!
“[Arias is] an extremely dangerous player who can decide a match at any moment.”
– Kaka, speaking at the Club World Cup (via BBC Sport)
@ben5484: “Been an awful signing!”
@SuffolkWolves: “He’s way too lightweight for the Premier League. Ship him out!”
@PaulAston6: “If we can get our money back I’d snatch their (Palmerias’) hands off. He is clearly struggling to settle in so we will never get the best out of him.”
@ThomPHunts: “Get rid before his value plummets at the end of the season.”
Arias has been a terrible signing for Wolves
Wolves’ recruitment has come under the microscope this season, and Arias has had a disastrous stint.
The South American just doesn’t look like he’ll ever score or assist, which is ultimately what he was brought to the club to do.
The lack of impact in the final third has been staggering, for a player who actually did put up good goals and assists numbers in Brazil.
Wolves fans, would you welcome Jhon Arias being sold in January?
He cannot seem to get going 😕
For whatever reason, it just has not worked out, and his spell at the club reached a new low against United, as some fans ironically cheered when he was substituted off in the second-half. Strand Larsen was also sarcastically cheered off, in what was an all-round awkward moment.
Arias gave a defiant response about his form at Wolves, saying he has the ‘conviction’ to improve.
But fans won’t hold their breath, and we’ll see if Wolves are tempted to cash in just months after signing him.
