  1. Wouldn't say that Dack was a one season wonder before he came here but even if he was that is still one season more than Brereton and at less than 1/8th of the price.
  2. Look for a bit more value in the market rather than spending more on an unproven teenager who can't get on Forests bench than on the rest of our squad combined.
  3. 5,6,7, Million whatever Brereton would cost he would cost more money than the rest of our squad did combined. Is it really prudent to spend more money on one unproven teenager than the rest of your squad combined? I mean he's not exactly a young Messi is he, he can't even get onto the Forest bench.
  4. Fylde don't half score some goals. Hope they go up this year as they have a set up worthy of the EFL and I can't understand why a football league club hasn't taken a punt on Danny Rowe.
  5. You were delighted when you thought we were going to sign Freeman, surely he hasn't become a bad player in a week.
  6. He's made some very clever signings with next to no money. That's why I hope we don't blow such big money on one unproven 19 year old.
  7. Why Not? You aren't going to progress very far or attract better players if you take that view point.
  8. Then put Rothwell on we don't need 3 defensive minded midfielders on. Hull aren't that good.
  9. Negative sub hope it doesn't come back to bite us like at Ipswich
  10. He's starting two 21 year olds today and has another on the bench. He brought Bamford at Boro as a 21 year old and he was Championship player of the season that year and Gibson was also a young player when he went to Boro who he played regularly. So it's not a fact that Karanka doesn't play youngsters.
  11. Don't like a midfield two of Evans and Smallwood it was our weakest area last season in League 1. Would have played Armstrong wide in place of Bennett and put Graham up top as I worry about Armstrong holding the ball up as the lone striker.
  12. Would you pay £8 Million for Brereton if it meant we had no funds to bring anyone else in during this window?
  13. I'd like a wide player as well but Mowbray doesn't really seem very keen on natural wide men. In central midfield Davenport is injured, Smallwood has been playing poorly for months now, Evans is Evans, Travis is still raw and you can write of Whittingham and Gladwin. I'd like a dominant experienced body brought into the midfield as at the moment we are very lightweight in there.
  14. Hope that we aren't spending all of our budget on Brererton as we have other areas that need strengthening as well. Still think we need another centre back and centre mid.
  15. Indeed £6 million is a lot of money for this club to spend on potential. Forest paid around the same amount for Grabban who scored 20 Championship goal last season & Leeds only paid a million more for Bamford.
  16. Give how little money we have spent in the last few years I cannot help but think that it would be rather profligate to spend such a sum on an unproven teenager.
  17. Raya Nyambe Lenihan Mulgrew Bell Evans Rothwell Armstrong Dack Palmer Graham Subs:Leutwiler, Williams, Downing, Bennett, Travis, Smallwood, Samuel
  18. Graham looks much fitter than he did this time last year. Last year he wouldn't have been able to out muscle and out pace their centre back as he did for his two second half chances yesterday. I actually think he looks in good shape especially considering he missed a couple of the early pre season matches.
  19. Leutwiler Travis Downing Williams Bell Tomlinson Whittingham Armstrong Palmer Rothwell Nuttall Subs :Raya, Lenihan, Nyambe, Davenport, Smallwood, Conway, Samuel
  20. It's not always the worst squads that go down though or the best squads that win things. Did we have one of the 3 worst squads when we went down? In my opinion no. Did Leicester have the best squad when they won the league? Again I would say no. But games of football aren't played on paper and our squad is only slightly better than the one that went down last time.
  21. Palace probably aren't worried about his wages being paid by the another club they probably just want him to go out on loan and get some game time.
