January Transfers and Rumours

[ollyandpatch]

Another kid from Forest. I must be getting miserable in my old age but I called it 3 weeks ago. Our buying/loan process is SO rigid. I suppose this lad is another of Sprosons?

Tear up the Flickers rule book and live a little !!!

Next up will be a striker aged 19 from a youth squad south of Watford Gap.

you say a kid but he has over 50 appearances in the championship with forest & got promoted with sheffield wednesday last season. He's got a lot more experience than the likes of josh thomas etc that we've brought in before. He's a great signing at this level ffs i like a moan but some are never happy

Sheff wed sent him back in Jan. agree with the experience comments and he’s a step up on the likes of Thomas but his loans haven’t exactly been successful

He's going to win us a lot of free kicks, starting on Saturday hopefully

That’s my point.

If we changed to play 4231 he looks like a player who would be exciting to watch and a good signing.

I don’t fancy us defensively playing a young winger at LWB.

Crosby might want play him there though 👍😆

He's been successful at forest tho for such a young age he's more than decent enough in league 1 mate. Only reason forest would of loaned him out is because they're now playing top flight football. and a bit harsh about his loan spells maybe the last one didn't work out with it being in the belgian league could be any reason really 🤷🏼‍♂️ played 14 times for a sheffield wednesday side in the few months he was there scoring 2 goals. They had a very strong squad last season so prob just struggled to nail down a consistent place given there quality as well

I know this is a daft question but is there any danger of any centre forwards coming through the door 🚪

That would be with Wilo upfront then.

Chizzy and Mighty behind.

Sincerely hope we don't play Willo upfront where he is going to get kicked to pieces with predictable results. He needs to play off a bigger forward who will take the physical weight off him.

true it's good to have options tho mate

We need a Big striker to replace Uche unless we are hoping that Loft will improve which i think he will and a nippy poacher like striker as well

Definitely need a striker ideally 2 coming in. I reckon we will bring 1 wing back, a midfielder & 1 striker in before the deadline closes 🙏🏻

Not disagreeing played a lot of games at a good level for his ages. But in terms of his loans he’s only played 10 games this season with 2 starts for a side bottom of the table. Not sure he’s going to be 100% fit straight away but certainly a good option to have

I'd love that Tolaj from Aldershot. Or Donley from Spurs!
