Lol so no surprises or developments from what we already knew. It was clear they would be his first choice. It's down to whether they can afford him and if not whether we become a better alternative. If they look elsewhere he will probably end up here.
-
Aye. I think the price will be right to sell easier than convincing the players to go somewhere and earn less. Could see more loans to see some of the players out the door.
-
I thought the same thing after watching a couple of highlight videos, although people that have watched him in games this year have said that is one of his strengths, so I imagine that is maybe another one of the clips deceptions.
-
Of all the strikers linked he is the one I want. Complete contrast and missing link from what we have. Strong, great pace but also direct. He can be a battering ram and hold up the ball too. Think he would be a great partner to Wilson or a focal point if Wilson isn't fit. Doubt he is open to come given all other offers on the table. The price tag would likely be most of our budget too. I can see us looking to sign a big name young Striker that will be our talisman for the best part of the next decade, just don't think it will be a priority until we fix other areas in the team. Especially if Hugo does come.

Phonzie at number 9 Maybe in 3 or 4 years!
-
The beauty of the new norm = I couldn't give a shit if someone turns us down or goes elsewhere. We will get someone just as good.* *Disclaimer: Reserves the right to kneejerk If we are sat not signed anyone amazing in September.

Sounds like this is in exactly the same place as it was in January. Bid accepted, looks a goer and now hesitancy from the players agents/camp. Maybe just a last minute wait to see if someone bigger comes in last minute? I can't believe we would have gone back if there was no interest in coming though so hopefully he is over for a medical tomorrow or over the weekend.

Fofana and Paqueta is the dream. We definitely need a bit more steel at the back of the midfield and Fofana can play in multiple roles in the centre. Also really need a number 10. Its possible Howe could try ASM in the 10 free role. I would sure like to see Miggy given the chance with better players around him too. I think both won't be the priority, but neither will be signing as many of 8-10 players this window to facilitate the overhaul we dream of!

Lascelles is fine as the 4th/5th CB. I feel he just didn't take the pressure role the past year and regressed from pushing at the England door under Rafa, monitoring or preparing a bid for knocking on the England door maybe. Losing the captaincy might be good for him. We could however get some sort of money for him this window before he becomes like Clark, Fernandez, Gayle etc. that won't fetch much more than a penny or two. I don't see us signing more than one CB this window and if Howe does want to play 3 at the back we will need him. Would prefer him to Dummett and Fernandez (who is now another year older and over half a season out of match fitness). Ideally we bring in two CB's this window or one now and one in January. There are too many other positions needing attention though imo.

Quite a few have been pushing the Rabiot to toon links. Not convinced we are after him. Maybe driving up the asking price for Chelsea? Rabiot seems to have a ton of detractors online, especially France supporters? I really don't know enough about him to know if he would be a good get for us or not
-
Provided we sign him. Shitehawk otherwise.

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/61659836 Pogba leaving on a free confirmed. Let's see if the rumours come back again. Expect he will head to Italy or France.
-
If Ake is available at a reasonable price we will be in for him. No doubt.
-
We were linked to Corentin Tolisso before and after Christmas. Wonder if we will take another look now Bayern released him and he is available on a free.
-
His passing deteriorated and he gave the ball away alot more in the last handful of games. Peaked Jan/Feb imo but was still fantastic. Intrigued to see where he fits in next year.

Danny Wellbeck

Richarlison is a no brainer, even over some of the bigger thought of names linked. We know he works in this league. That, along with his versatility is huge.
-
Not like VAR to have an agenda.
-
Wow Not given! That said. The last angle looked like a dive.
-
Colback fucking it for Forest!
-
There's Frank Clark. Legend.

Happy to see forest go up. Always nostalgic about the frank Clark era.
