No, not good enough

What do we think?
With his stats this season, Cavaleiro has shown himself to still be a consistent performer and it is likely that he still could have done a job as a squad player for Wolves.
However, Fulham now have a quality player on their hands permanently and the Old Gold have added to their January transfer kitty, a good move for all parties.
