skintsaint Posted 16 August, 2022 Share Posted 16 August, 2022 Wonder why Forest not in for him seeing as they are buying everyone and anyone. Maybe they feel he isn't ready for the step up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CB Fry Posted 16 August, 2022 Share Posted 16 August, 2022 (edited) What information has come to light that warrants this level of forum hype? From what I can see he's just as likely to go to Leeds or Everton. And when I say just as likely, I mean we rarely win a transfer race as soon as any other club becomes seriously involved. I don't see rumours "snowballing" I just see us listed with other clubs, one of which he will sign for instead of us.

niceandfriendly Posted 16 August, 2022 Share Posted 16 August, 2022 (edited) We're apparently one of many interested. Not so much of a snowball, more of a light sleet. Edited 16 August, 2022 by niceandfriendly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Fan CaM Posted 16 August, 2022 Share Posted 16 August, 2022 He looks like he’s got some good attributes - a sort of pacey cultured Romeu. But who would give way to him with Lavia and JWP starting to look a really good pairing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 16 August, 2022 Share Posted 16 August, 2022 When you have to explain your 'joke' not just once, but twice, it kind of suggests you've lost the room. Shouldn't this have just gone into the normal transfer thread? These threads should be reserved for when players are close to signing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well no, there wouldn't have been uproar because it made sense in the context of the Pompey thread. This makes no sense because our links to garner are speculative at best and it's certainly not gone into the levels of Rudi Skacel! (that was a saga!)
