Did we pay too much though? It's an easy comment to make but who could we have signed for less who'd have kept us up?

 

Literally any striker from League one and above could've given the sort of performances he's put in with us :lol:

Weghorst would have done a similar job IMO.

That's a bold claim considering Burnley bought him to replace Wood and promptly got relegated.

 

Want to try again?

Nope. A team is made up of more than just a striker. Weghorst is at Man U now.

It would be quite a depressing watch but I think Wood may shade him in a race. 

 

I also think Wood was - more importantly - the easier to flog. He had the better CV and that got a bite from Forest. Weghorst ended up in Turkey and even now I can't imagine Man Utd buying him. At that point another loan to Germany seems probable. Vincent Kompany may get him firing but I doubt it.

Then why didn’t Eddie just play Gayle were that the case?

I'm not sure you can use Forest biting as any sort of vindication, whoever was in charge of doing their transfer business has been fired. Shelvey and Colback as well. It's like he was an NUFC mole ffs. :lol:

I partly feel sorry for them and partly want to laugh at them. I applaud the effort they showed in trying to strengthen their squad but their spending decisions were largely woeful. It’s a real shame because the amount they spent could have made them a 12th-15th PL club for a few seasons at least
