Not the big, mobile, physical presence I was hoping for. Looks more like a support striker than a number 9

9bc987fe-d818-4d27-b321-ea5a7524aa10.mp4 just been sent this from a Forest mate 😆 come on own up…who was it!?

I wonder if our Yorkshire friends Leeds would be willing to loan us Piroe for a season. They’ve recently signed Calvert-Lewin, Okafor and Nmecha so wondering how much game time Piroe will get… loan + obligation if we get promoted

Time for a booster jab Ric. i can picture the gritted teeth now as Bilal fires in a second

Don Goodman will be reeling at this news

Marti needs to get on to him now and tell him how important he is to us gaining promotion and not to sulk. He could be a massive asset for us this season. assuming nobody else comes in at £35m in which case we’d be daft not to sell anyway!

A close mate runs one of the official Forest podcasts and he believes it’s close to being a done deal but might be a loan with obligation

Unbelievable scenes if we manage to flog VK for a decent fee. He’s dog poo forest just want a Stuart Pearce lookalike don’t they

Looking at his highlights reel he’s either a direct replacement for Abdul or will provide decent competition he’s also quite tall and physical which is much needed

I can only imagine it’s because we’ve got to clear out more players before any incomings (Faes, BEK, Winks etc) the club don’t want to find themselves in a situation where they bring players in now and then for whatever reason the sales of the players mentioned above (and maybe others) collapse and they are left in the shit. its a very risky game tho as some of these outgoings may not happen till deadline day

Maybe we are one of the clubs monitoring the situation

No idea Ric, but if anyone has JR’s email address then please ping the info over to him - this is more of a bargain than Kone! This lad should not be rotting in the Polish league!

I really think this guy could do a job for us as a striker. Good goal record and for that fee it’s even more interesting.

Perhaps we have agreed something in principle with the EFL, that if adhered to, will mean we avoid a points deduction. Having said that it doesn’t mean we can’t bring players in it just means we have to seek extra ratification from the EFL to get the incomings rubber stamped

Completely different type of player to Eze. Any Palace fans thinking they are getting a like for like will be very disappointed

Honestly I have no idea if this guy has even one positive attribute that’s required for a modern day midfield player

Is Mavididi injured? If not I read an article that suggests Sevilla are in talks for one of our players..could it be him

This isn’t happening. He’s out for ‘several’ weeks

We’re all pleased with this deal but he’s the one most likely to be back in the Prem next year unless we start bringing in some starting eleven players

Wow! £12m PLUS ADDONS!!!! christ

I remember back in the Nige, Steve Walsh (recruitment) days when they specifically looked at the character of players as part of player profiling and they actively targeted ‘captain material’ with the likes of Schmeichel, Morgan, Fuchs, Hammond, Powell, Brown (!?), Wasilewski, Phillips etc. All this sulking and ‘woe is me’ bs wouldn’t have happened under their watch Edit: Schmeichel was a SGE signing

But what I really can’t understand is why managers new and old consistently pick him!?

Just a bad day at the office. We know he’s levels above that performance so let’s not overreact

Yes! But sadly I can’t see him being able to cope with the physical demands of playing CM every week in this league but aside from that I totally agree

He’s a good egg. Our best technical player by a clear margin. Gives the ball away at times but he’s the only one in that midfield brave enough (and capable) of playing the eye of a needle pass. if we somehow manage to hold on to him then I think we can have a chance of playoffs at least
