That lack of a right wing option looks hideous in terms of Murphy or Miggy coming off the bench, yes I know Murphy got an assist. Thank fuck we’re now moving to a Barnes and Gordon set up

Just hope Willock can come back - he’s at least another option for the left at least (meaning Barnes and Gordon can switch)

You are not paying attention or reading the posts properly, and so you are completely missing the point.

 

It is a complete waste of time even engaging with you.

Expand  

Point is, you said 50 millions for Anthony Elanga is not crazy money. I say it is and we cannot be making that sort of deals.

 

English is my 3rd language, so apologies if I have misread your post in some way. I would say we just disagree on this one.

Ah, okay. Fair enough. Didn't realise there was a language issue.

 

I am already in disagreement with the clubs policy of going after Prem proven players at the minute. This is the most expensive of markets and has always been.

 

Elanga is coming off a really good season at 21, and so that £50 million valuation is exactly what you'd expect to have to pay in the Premier League. It is not out of the ordinary.

 

We paid £40 million for Gordon when he had done very little at Everton in comparison. I used that to show that the price is comparable.

 

If the club is committed to shopping in this market we are going to end up paying a lot no matter who it is.

 

The issue isn't Forest asking too much, it is us pursuing players at the wrong time in the most expensive market.

I do not say Forest is wrong to ask 50 million. So in that way it is not crazy money. But with that money you can get a much better player than Elanga from abroad. And we have to be doing that sort of deals. We are not able to pay 50 million for average players, they have to improve us greatly. Elanga does not. 

With Gordon, you are paying for England International (u21 that time). They always cost more. 
 

If you for ex. look players that have been moved this season for about 50 million they include:

 

Douglas Luiz

Moussa Diaby

Amadou Onana

Pedro Neto

Joao Felix

Michael Olise

 

I would say they are on different level than Elanga. Of course wages are most likely higher.

We are in agreement then.

 

Just a misunderstanding.

I don’t base my opinions on individual performances.  
 

He was the wrong position and profile of player. If we achieved our transfer goals he probably wouldn’t have started. We are having to play a LW at RW or a RW that isn’t good enough.  
 

Separately, I like him as a player. Now we have 2 great options at LW, and poor RW options.  yeh we might as well play them both and not get the best out of one of them.  That’s the best we can do in our position.

Which makes absolutely no sense. So much of what passes for football journalism is just attention-seeking dickheads* slamming their fists down on the “random transfer rumor” button.

Honestly think we should get Memphis Depay, Osula is too raw and we have too much pressure on Isak not getting injured. One body of decent quality could make a big difference. 

 

Why hasn't he already got a club? He's a fairly big name and played at the Euros

Because he'll be on huge wages, has missed most of the last two seasons to injury and is now largely immobile.
