Bringing Woody home?

The return of Chris Wood.

I have a used sock for sale if anyone is interested. 350 quid.

£35 million plus a player ?

We’ll be paying for the player much like the ‘swap’ deals Everton & Villa have done 

[Bunk Moreland]

If it is Elanga he might come in as our versatile young forward signing rather than our main RW. Apparently he can play across the front 3.

[mouldy_uk]

I think there’s a semi decent player in there and I wish him well (but not against us of course )

if that’s our big RW signing I’d be very disappointed. Not even Kaka can get excited about that

Id bet We will still be signing another right winger even if it is elanga

[gdm]

So it’s an ‘inflated fee’ with a similar fee for a Forest player to get round PSR?

[Matt1892]

You would be looking at Murillo, MGW or Elanga.

 

Probably on an inflated fee to make up for the inflated fee for Anderson, if true. 
 

By spreading out both transfers it becomes difficult to for league to argue about.

£35m 😳😂😂😂

 

35m for Anderson....wouldn't just bite their hand off, would take the arm shoulder and a good portion of the rib cage. (Do not smoke in here)

 

That's an obscene amount for player who hasn't shown to be any better than a consistent 6/7 out of 10 and never been good enough to be a consistent starter despite coming to an age where he can't be considered a promising youngster anymore. Yes he is still young, but at 22 he should be playing a lot more if he is good enough.

 

If we can get 35m for a player of that standard then we won't have any problem abiding by the rules

im not so sure unless we can punt Almiron & Murphy. I just hope we go nowhere near Elanga. Would be so underwhelming 

[Broadsword]

Well it's Gibbs White we have been tracking.  They give us £35m for Anderson pre 30th june to ease PSR and we give them it back and another £30m in July for MGW.  £30m and Anderson for Gibbs White seems fair.

[McCormick]

I’m confused. 35m for Anderson? That can’t be true  .

[STM]

The deal makes much more sense if we are signing a forest player like.

 

For once I don't blame the journos for not having a clue. The whole thing has been crazy.

 

Williams for 20m would be my guess.

[Ikon]

Aye, my guess is MGW for 65m too. Please not Elanga.

Id say if it’s £35m I’d be saying hope is right. Just can’t see how it’s £35m in a straight deal

[The Butcher]

Clever accounting. They buy Anderson for an inflated fee and we buy one of theirs for an inflated fee. Win-win financially.

Elanga was ruled out yesterday, obviously things may have changed.

[Nucasol]

Also useful to note this and the Minteh deal now drives up the Fair Market Value for all deals. If the PL come at us for Anderson, we can use Minteh as precedent for current prices.

Him or Williams for daftly inflated fees seems likely. I am good with that.

Yep complete inevitability, and nobody is safe when the likes of Man city/Madrid/Bayern etc come knocking on the door for your top players.

I don’t even think it’s that. We may have to sell to PSR champions like Spurs. Gordon to spurs for £70m next season because they are one of the few clubs that can spend that much money and we’ll be in an FFP hole. 
 

We’ve sold Minteh to midtable PSR champions. It’s a great deal for them. 

[Chris_R]

If a player is coming this way, we'll already have agreed that fee and most likely Forest have PSR concerns next season. Both sides will have inflated the player fees so that we're ok this year and they're ok next year so I'd expect whoever we sign we'll all be a bit shocked at the value too but it's just us playing the PL's stupid little game.

Aye I'd agree

Neco Williams to be back up to Tino if we are moving Trippier on....

Levy has set up a meeting for tomorrow with the reds. Masters coming too to discuss this. New vote soon.
