Guest Haris Vuckic Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 I think we could use them both now. Should have just loaned them Elliot and S.Taylor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Good long term thinking. Now i want that fucking Grenier in and a striker and CB. (wont happen but still) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdm Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 No way we would buy a CH, loan him back then buy another CH, Pardew and co are obviously satisfied with our current central defenders Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Oh yeah, for sure. We're not going to buy another central defender. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belfast Boy Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 I would say there is still one more big signing to come, followed by an even bigger sale to balance things again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayerso Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Good to see we are looking at some home grown players as the 8 we'll have to list in this years 25-man squad are the players we should be looking to replace / upgrade. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Generally shocked that we are able to get some young English guys for such prices. Really need to do it more often then. Seemed we got in there before the hype on them got too silly, as most of us don't even know them that well, so this maybe the way forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 We should loan them MYM as well, let them form a partnership then sell Taylor & colo next season, willo for backup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor Swift Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 I could stomach these type of transfers if we're not going to be lavishing out £15m on a striker. It's great for building a squad for the longterm and it's also a way to get young cost-controlled players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 If Pearce just shuts up, accepts it and goes with the boards wishes, he'd probably be near the top of Ashley's pile of a potential Pardew replacement one day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midstoon Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Just watched the interview on East Midlands news with pearce and he confirmed we have signed both of them and there back at forest for a seasons loan. was'nt very happy as he advised against the deal last week as he said he could get a lot more money for them at the end of next season & did'nt know that the chairman agreed to the deal without informing him.

Guest antz1uk Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Scouting report on Lascelles: He’s the new… One could quite reasonably say Michael Dawson, given the obvious Forest connection, and Lascelles certainly matches the former Forest man ’s comfort with ball at feet. He has the ability to play accurate long balls – what I suppose I am contracted to describe as ‘cultured’. However, the comparisons with Dawson stop at a point, because it is clear that Lascelles is faster than Dawson - certainly based on some of the latter's recent Tottenham showings. In fact, as is so often is the case with defenders, his is a rather surprising turn of speed. On more than one occasion this season a forward has assumed that he will be first to the ball, only for a sliding challenge from Lascelles to guide the ball out of play or away from danger. In that respect he reminds me of Vincent Kompany. That may be a rather generous appraisal at this stage, but one thing is for certain: he is one of Forest’s most valuable assets. Strengths It is difficult to overstate how impressively the youngster has slotted into Billy Davies’ first team this season. There were understandable concerns following the injuries to Wilson and Collins, but the 20-year-old made himself feel instantly at home at the heart of Forest’s side. As should be expected from a 6’2” central defender, Lascelles aerial presence is a real asset. He shows an impressive leap and has fended off the majority of strikers. This, in a division as physical as the Championship, has been particularly impressive. Lascelles is also strong in the challenge, making those tackles that make supporters stand up and applaud. For a defender of such a young age, he certainly gives as good as he gets physically. Despite that, this is no lump. He has pace and would prefer to play short passes into midfield rather than look long. Having been schooled not to panic under pressure and be relaxed with ball at feet, he practices what he has been preached. Finally, whilst he would prefer to play in a central area, the defender also has the temperament and stamina to operate at right-back. In that respect, comparisons with Chris Smalling may be fair. Weaknesses As so often with younger central defenders, there is a tendency to give away fouls in aerial challenges with an evident eagerness on show, often as a result of simply not being as ‘clever’ as more experienced opponents. Such a tendency has inevitably led to the defender being slightly ill-disciplined. 15 appearances in all competitions have brought six bookings, meaning he is likely to pick up the odd suspension. The other obvious flaw is his lack of experience. By the age of 20, a player (even in central defence) may have been expected to register more than 20 league starts. Evidently the injury of last season held Lascelles back somewhat, but it would still represent something of a risk to make a big-money move for a player with just three months of sustained football in the second tier. In terms of his attributes, the only obvious flaw is a willingness to give forwards too much space to turn, possibly related to a desire to not give away additional unnecessary free kicks. At the highest level, this is a weakness that will be exemplified and punished by the best. A Championship inch becomes a Premier League mile. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/scouting-arsenal-target-jamaal-lascelles-3015911#ixzz39QdgWv4Z Sounds very much like a promising young centre half at leeds about 15yr ago, would be canny if he turned out as good with an even better injury record Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
