As a relegated team, you get one chance to get back into the prem without the financial hit, after that you're fvcked. Its a balancing act, and of course players like Nacho or Maddison (even Barnes to a lesser degree due to contract) may be the reason we go up and return to the EPL, its question of if that risk of is worth taking We have been extremely negligent in our selling strategy in recent years, we cannot sustain the club in the model that made us successful without these sales, the time of the sale is of paramount importance. I would love Nacho to stay as he is a total favourite, but it is against the backdrop of these boring financial realities that we must make this decisions Just need Saudi to do us a solid and just buy Madders for 100m......
Ric Flair Posted 23 June 2023 Posted 23 June 2023 39 minutes ago, oadby.fox said: But who do we replace them with and do you trust the club to get it right? Nacho is easily good for 20 goals in the championship. Is that such an easy thing to replace? Likewise with Barnes who would easily hit over 20 goal contributions. We’ve already lost so many on a free and if we can keep a few of the better performers this season then I think we will have a shot at bouncing back. Replacing almost everyone other than the ones which no one else wants is bad business imo. We will be left to build the team around Daka, Soumare, Vestergaard and Faes. The same problem faces us in 12 months, if our club can't recruit players that will be successful then we are done for. If Iheanacho is happy to stay here and sign a new deal then great, love the bloke. He'll be an absolute menace at this level but I'd absolutely understand if he wants to go. He's been treated like a piece of excrement for years. One of our biggest problems is we've got a truck load of players that either didn't want to be here or haven't been good enough and our club has lost the plot at the wages they offer, their inability to move players on and the whole conveyor belt of in's and out's has halted. We need to rip it up and start again, but will a clear plan and capable staff to do it. 1
An Away Move Posted 23 June 2023 Posted 23 June 2023 Revenge for making Wesley Morgan a blue. It sucks being in an inferior league to Forest and potentially losing out to a team like Luton on players. How the world has turned.
Stopharage Posted 23 June 2023 Posted 23 June 2023 Youri to Villa, Nacho to Forest; what’s next? Filbert to Derby, Margaret the tea lady to Wolves and Vardy to Cov? 3

Keeping Iheanacho is not an either or. I'm happy to sell anyone in the squad who a sizeable offer comes in, I'd happily sell the whole squad as it stands to some Saudi club for £300m and start again.
Levi Port Posted 23 June 2023 Posted 23 June 2023 (edited) We’ll get what 10/15 for him ? Id rather just risk it and potentially lose him for free in the summer. The amount we’d get for promotion justifies that. If we got promoted there is a chance we could get him to re-sign. If he stays there’s a high chance we go back up. He would be the best player in the Championship. I trust Enzo to have a word though, and if his head isn’t in it we’d have to sell him. Edited 23 June 2023 by Levi Port 3

Finnegan Posted 23 June 2023 Posted 23 June 2023 Stop overreacting and read this guy's other content. He doesn't have a clue. 2 1
dylanlegend Posted 23 June 2023 Posted 23 June 2023 I love Ian but if he doesn’t sign a new deal then surely it’s sensible to sell with only one year remaining. If we do though we need to keep hold of Daka and Vardy
Dan Posted 23 June 2023 Posted 23 June 2023 I can tolerate him going, it would be sad but I wouldn't blame him, I just can't tolerate it being to Forest. Sell him to Palace or West Ham if we have to. 3

Buzzell Posted 23 June 2023 Posted 23 June 2023 As much as I don’t want him to leave, with one year left on his contract, any decent offer that comes in for him should be considered. It is what it is unfortunately.
darko2k7 Posted 23 June 2023 Posted 23 June 2023 Even if this is true, when did the rules change about agreeing personal terms before agreeing a fee with the club , is tapping up no longer a thing , I've noticed it mentioned alot in a lot of stories about players over the last couple of years . It gets mentioned in so many articles like it's no big deal and it's common practice. 1
4everfox Posted 23 June 2023 Posted 23 June 2023 I've only just gotten over being relegated, and I've barely forgiven Top for that. Now this! Honestly, Top must think I'm made out of Molotov cocktails.
Foxin_Mad Posted 23 June 2023 Posted 23 June 2023 If he wants out then so be it. I hoped he may stay but in fairness hes been treated badly by the club. Id be tempted to offer him a new contract based upon Promotion, a clause he can go next year if not.

An Sionnach Posted 23 June 2023 Posted 23 June 2023 There is a real sense of fear on this forum now .We could lose Barnes, Maddison and Iheanacho having already seen Tielemans leave. If they go they go and LCFC will carry on , our future does not involve these players. 1
FoxOfMelton Posted 23 June 2023 Posted 23 June 2023 I think I would genuinely cry if this happened. 1
foxinsocks Posted 23 June 2023 Posted 23 June 2023 No way we sell him to Forrest. He is a keeper for me. Top needs to show ambition
