Is the problem Wood or the way we utilised him? Genuinely asking the question Wood was the problem. Look at that miss against Sheffield Wednesday. That's not a competent footballer.

Forest did, and handsomely at that. At least Wood was fit, it’s now one injury after another with Wilson now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look past Newcastle mate - 49 in 144 for Burnley so 2.x games per goal, shit for us then do far at forest 15 in 38 so back up to 2.x. Us buying him pretty much relegated Burnley then Forest buying him pretty much kept them up. Edited July 28, 2024 by Gawalls Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I believe him when he said he didn’t want to lose ASM. He likes having talented players. 22 hours ago, Andy84 said: Lewis, Targett, Fraser The lack of Targett rumours lends me to believe he’s on gooooood money. 21 hours ago, 80 said: Well, Trippier's the most debatable out of that group. The question with him is where his head's at, but if he's switched on and over whatever problems he's had I'd say he's categorically still effective at the top level, and highly influential. He had the best passing stats in Europe 9 months ago. That's not to say we should definitely keep him, given PSR, but pre-Bournemouth away Trippier is a huge loss to the squad. If we ended up keeping him because of Howe and we then got post-Bournemouth Trippier for another twelve months, then yeah, that would reflect heavily on Eddie. For me Trippier is an easy sale at the right price point. We have the replacement. His value is only diminishing. His position requires athleticism that is surely in decline. He’s not that useful off the bench either. If we sold him - I don’t think he NEEDS replacing in the squad. Certainly not with an expensive signing on big wages. id take £18m in a heartbeat. We should’ve sold him in January imo. We knew we needed at least £40m right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was inclined to sell back in January. Only thing I'd say is we don't know what we were being offered for him. There were strong media reports that Bayern's best offer was about £6m, after initially offering a loan and then £2m - a long way short of £18m. I'd snap your hand off for £18m.

I would want closer to £10m. Something that would save us 12m overall including wages and the rest of his unamortised fee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be surprised to see someone like Almiron shifted too. I do wonder if we can commit to £18-£20m cost this year (60m fee, 5 year contract over 100k) as it stands without a sale.
