I don’t know. Elanga had the third most assists in the league in a super defensive side and can get better. Bakayoko might never get near that. If Eddie and Co are unconvinced they’ve earned our faith I think.
Not many thought we needed the Pope upgrade either and it was transformational. Also if this lad tears it up this season for Burnley he’ll be on the way to fucking Chelsea before we know it. He’s our long term target. Let’s get it done.
Be happy with Ramsay for the price. The whole helping out Aston Villa thing is irrelevant, if not us, someone else will bite. They’re not going to be docked points.
Hopefully one of these days someone will have the brains/integrity to tell Chelsea to fuck off. They can’t ALL be soulless, dead eyed mercenaries. Right?
You’d be hoping Elanga (and Pedro) would force the issue. We are a champions league side and I’m not sure Forest will be anywhere near that again next season.
We’re not scouts but that doesn’t stop us writing off players in the premier league based on all kinds of personal bias/ignorance. Can’t have it both ways.
