foxoffderby Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 When I've seen Morgan play live hes better than what I first thought. Not blessed with great pace but hes strong in the air and has exceptional strengh scores goals too. I would rather have Morgan than the Tunch or SSL. I still would like to see Bamba play in midfield but thats just me.
goose2010 Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 just asked my boss (season ticket holder at forest) what his opinion of Morgan is i got this email back... I used to think he was a right donkey, but he's done very well over the past couple of years. He's a lump and can't run, but the best defender we've got - but probably not good enough if you are aiming for the Premiership. As we can't score and our only tactic seems to be to play for a 0-0 draw doesn't make a lot of sense to sell our best defender, but I guess we need the money for Andy Reid's latest course of slimming tablets.
lcfcsnow Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 He's also Forest through and through, leave him where he is. If he really was any good other clubs would have put a bid in for him if 500k is going to be enough. Carthorse. Looks like we'll never see defenders like Naughton and Vitor again.
Ric Flair Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 Quite similar in style of play to Wayne Brown, which worked for Pearson last time round.
80footgiraffe Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 Another bid going in, about 600k. DONT SHOOT THE MESSENGER (DSTM)
Callabinho Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 Sadly if Bamba plays, and has a succesfull African nations, I doubt he will return a Leicester player.....
foxoffderby Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 Sadly if Bamba plays, and has a succesfull African nations, I doubt he will return a Leicester player..... Just on a side note does anyone know if the African Nations is on the telly? Eurosport in the past
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 Quite similar in style of play to Wayne Brown, which worked for Pearson last time round. What I said. People always take the piss out of layers liek them, because they look like they shouldnt be professional footballers and usually cant pass a ball (well Brown couldnt anyway!). But they are in the team to lead, and organise. Forest have made the PO's with Morgan in the team and I think he wouldbe a perfect signing.
goose2010 Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 Just on a side note does anyone know if the African Nations is on the telly? Eurosport in the past sure ITV have it think it is on IVT2,ITV3 and ITV4
foxoffderby Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 sure ITV have it think it is on IVT2,ITV3 and ITV4 Cheers mate
ithuriel Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 Why do peeps assume we are instantly getting rid of other centre halfs, Pearson can still get City going for a play off place and will need players to cover any injuries. We see how depleted our strikeforce as become.
Kitchandro Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 I can't believe people are trying to rationalise Morgan over Bamba.

cc_star Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 Why do peeps assume we are instantly getting rid of other centre halfs, Pearson can still get City going for a play off place and will need players to cover any injuries. We see how depleted our strikeforce as become. True, however Pearson has said he doesn't like collecting players & Shakespeare has made noises about needing to move players on Mills, Bamba & SSL all need to be a first team, SSL went public in the Irish Press under Sven saying his move here has been a nightmare, or summink. His reaction to be dropped when Mills & Bamba were both available again says he's not going to sit on the bench quietly & adding to that a defender who was a key part Billy Davies successful Forest side who also wouldn't happily sit on the bench You've got the recipe for mutiny.

An initial bid of around £500,000 was rejected by the two-time European champions. The 27-year-old rugged centre-back is out of contract at the City Ground in the summer and Forest could be tempted to cash in on the fans' favourite during the transfer window, rather than risk losing him on a free in the summer.
goose2010 Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 according to SSN we have put in a improved bid.

Happy Fox Posted 20 January 2012 Author Posted 20 January 2012 told you. It was always likely we were going to make another bid but appreciate your info about the £600K.
Leicester_Loyal Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 If we can get Wes for under 700k, then its a brilliant deal. I reckon they'll accept 600-750k.
Sods Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 Should go for Chambers instead. Chambers is having an awful season and only has one good year at this level. Wes is the real deal and forest will be gutted
Adster Posted 20 January 2012 Posted 20 January 2012 Chambers is having an awful season and only has one good year at this level. Wes is the real deal and forest will be gutted Well if you think about it logically, their whole squad has had 'shit' seasons this season.
Happy Fox Posted 20 January 2012 Author Posted 20 January 2012 http://www.nottinghamforest.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10308~2583311,00.html Nottingham Forest can confirm they have rejected an undisclosed bid from Leicester for central defender Wes Morgan.
