12m +3 if Leeds stay up. Not terrible.

I think they need the finished article, where as we don’t. I’m sure they’d take Ekitike but they won’t want to spend that much on him.

Are Liverpool going to pay 80 mil for Ekitike? I’d be very surprised.

Hang tight Nunez. You don’t have to go into semi retirement yet.

Just breathe man.

That whole Pedro can’t score from open play thing was always going to be nonsense in a better team. He’s quality. It’s annoying.

The fume from the cartel 6 and their media partners if we signed Ekitike and kept Isak would be utterly delicious.

Quite aside from anything else, how could we afford it?

It doesn’t really matter whether he’s “proven” we’ve been following him for years and our hit rate is outstanding

15M seems fair. I wonder if we think Everton might get involved.

I guess we’ll see but the cynic in me says he’ll be happy to sit on the bench for Chelsea playing the odd minute here or there in Exchange for ludicrous wages and the opportunity to join the rest of the soulless mercenaries that make up their squad.

Good to see Man U will be taken to the cleaners for Mbembo on fees and wages whilst still having huge problems at CM, CF, GK, RWB etc etc.

Osula? The guy who has never scored goals anywhere up to this point? Pedro is miles ahead of Osula currently and probably always will be.

Yeah agree. Wish we didn’t have to care about the prices so fucking much.

As we’ve seen, if there’s competition for a player from a cartel club, we aren’t getting them. Eddie clearly sees something in him, like he has done in plenty others NO were unenthused about.

I’m we can sell him on to Juve in 12 months for 20 million I’m all for it.

One thing his injury spared us is a summer of tedious transfer speculation around him. Great to see him back out there.

Can cover two positions for free but like, very badly?

What is this Walker-Peters stuff? I have a vague memory of him being somewhat promising during Southamptons mighty Ward-Prowse “era”. No top side would go near him now surely?

Until recently there was a lot of talk of MGW going to City, that it was almost a done deal. Now that City have seemingly looked elsewhere, could it be that Forest need to make a sale of some kind in order to bring in the players they’ll need for Europe etc?

I’m not saying you’re wrong, but Kudus was hugely underwhelming last season. What gives you such confidence in him? I think 60m for him would be a huge gamble.

Interesting that forest view themselves as rivals. I think they’re going to find it a lot harder going next season.

Third highest assists in the league for a team whose game plan is to win every game 1 nil.

Elanga would tear it up here under Eddie I reckon. It’s looking pretty clear we’ve liked him for a very long time and have a clear plan on how to use him. With that in mind I can tolerate this dragging on a little longer yet.

Have to presume if we’ve bid we know Elanga is keen.
