Mazzy Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Perhaps Howe doesn't see Wood leaving as actually a huge dent in the striker department. I've no doubt if Isak and Wilson were both unavailable he'd happily have Joelinton back up top with how much he's improved and how much more confidence he has in his game.

Love Joelinton, but he can’t hit a barn door when it counts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither can Wood, but Howe still played him there. I'm talking about who he sees now as 3rd choice with Wood leaving and it's Joelinton without a doubt.

Menace Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) Incredible business by our lot to get £15M back for this lump. Edit: Sky Sports just said he's completed his medical. Edited January 20, 2023 by Menace Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think there is close to zero chance, given where we are and where we want to head, that we choose to see out the rest of this season with an injury prone (and yet to find form again) Wilson and a recently returned and still to fully establish himself Isak. It is not who we are anymore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Hope he does well. This place got inside his head. He's better than what we've seen in a B&W shirt and I'm sure he'll show more of himself at forest. Hope they stay up, even if it's just for him. Good luck.

HawK Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Letting him go before we have a replacement lined up/in is dangerous from a financial perspective, it weakens our buying position, however I trust the club. I also agree that for the princely sum of £15m and taking Wood off of us, they can now be called Nottm Forrest. Thanks Chris, you were a donkey but you did let the ball hit you on the head sometimes. For that I guess I'm grateful for your presence in our Lazurus-esque resurrection in the past 12 months. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazzy Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Basically way too good a deal to turn down for a player that probably would have left in the summer anyway. Frees up a sqaud place that we now need to fill ideally with a midfielder first and foremost. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Yeah sounds like it was too good to turn down and unexpected so no replacement lined up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Sickening that so-called Eddie Howe didn’t call him vermin and the worst player ever. Howe OUT for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I wonder how much the FA cup miss sealed his fate. Although it sounds like financially it was too good to turn down for a 3rd choice striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Howe clearly isn’t comfortable with his departure. Unless people have convinced themselves that he’s simply playing mind games/4D chess in the press etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Getting £15m back considering his age and recent goalscoring form is a hell of a result tbh. Wish him well & would definitely rather Forest stop up this season then the likes of Everton, Southampton, West Ham etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Will be interesting when the actual terms of the deal are made public and how well the “very likely to meet the terms required for sale” crack ages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Focusing on the positives of what Wood has contributed. My read is that it opens the door for a different kind and better forward player. He’ll be delighted if he gets his man (one close to top of list). We need someone, not just want, but no guarantees is all he’s saying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
