STUHILL Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 Heard from a few Forest fans that this guy is one of, if not the best CB in the League. Maybe rose tinted BUT sounds like Pearson sees this too. There is obviously something going on behind the scenes and I suspect that Bamba is on his way out along with Tunchev. St Ledger has earned his place and I expect him to stay there along with Mills until performances drop or injury/suspension etc. Morgan of course will want to start but he will have to bide his time and he will get his chance! Sounds like a very good, strong signing and something Pearson wanted to do before someone else snapped him up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walksy89 Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 lets give the bloke a chance,always looked good at the back 4 the scum,ben marshall very good signing if it comes through,maybe another winger and play offs here we come,blue army Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfox Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 Not overly joyed, but in past season's he has been an absolute rock and one of the best defenders in the Championship. Im just hoping Pearson doesn't put him in straight away in a possible 4-4-2 formation. Welcome Wes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Weasel Fox Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 If he does come to Leicester which seems likely, would just like to wish him the best of luck because with our moaning fans (me included ) he will need it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

absolutelegend Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 WELCOME WES! Not an obvious move for lcfc (or for him given our current centre backs) but a great addition to the squad. Let's wish him all the best and get behind him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowlattsFox Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 He will need to start well, I always fear for players who come from Forest and Derby especially if they do not perform instantly. Bit like Howard and Oakley when they first came. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jace Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 WELCOME WES! Not an obvious move for lcfc (or for him given our current centre backs) but a great addition to the squad. Let's wish him all the best and get behind him! The last thing we want to do is get behind our centre back we need to be more attacking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topharry123 Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 Good player and a nice addition to the squad. Not sure about 1mil tho with only a few months left on his contract. I'm guessing someone will be leaving tomorrow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxondale Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 Was reading one of the Forest forums earlier and there are mutterings that the money will not necessarily be available for transfer. Either way, I think they've got a good deal out of us. Steve Cotterill more or less confirmed this on EMT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corky Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 You'll never beat Wes Morgan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny the Fox 95 Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 Very happy with this. Championship experience. And is a very solid player. Shame as Bamba is likely to be off along with Tunchev, but I trust Nigel's judgement. You'll never beat Wes Morgan. You will because he's slow. Good player and a nice addition to the squad. Not sure about 1mil tho with only a few months left on his contract. I'm guessing someone will be leaving tomorrow... Wellens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corky Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 You will because he's slow. They won't, he can just barge people out of the way. Exactly what we need, with Matt "Passionless" Mills and Sol "Nopositionalsense" Bamba conceding goals for fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 Pointless signing. Anyway, welcome Wes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox92 Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 Yes, I question the signing in terms of another central defender, but I fully trust and back Nigel Pearson. We are not getting any player, we are getting a very experienced centre half who has proved to be dominant at this level. I just hope Nigel doesn't replace St Ledger.

Corky Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 And when he has shit games we can blame Forest. All good in this ciddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salieri Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 Got a feeling he could become a good player for us, Forest's loss is our gain, welcome aboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 Bamba must be on the way out. I have always found Morgan to be an industrial lump of a player, but I'm willing and open minded to that opinion being proved wrong. If St Ledger ends up on the bench again this could also get messy with squad morale etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shearfox Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 At this level he is fantastic, limited compared to Bamba but suits this league better... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reynard Posted 30 January 2012 Share Posted 30 January 2012 1 million for a pretty average player of limited ability with not much chance of improving??? don't get it myself but hope he does well for us. We seem to be collecting centre halves a little like we used to collect right backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
