    My mate reckons they want around 2 million, he knows shankland has been offered a contract by them for 13k a week which would be a club record for them

    Shankland would suit the change of style of play we seem to be implementing- not high pressing as much n going a bit more direct

    Nothing is a certainty, but a club that gets 25k attendances are paying £30k per week to a 31yo striker to add to the other 5 strikers they have.
    They seem to have filled their squad up with loan players too so they might be in a similar position to Forest regardless of what league they are in next year. I'd imagine their wage bill is hefty given they've taken a lot of loans from the PL

    Styles is almost exactly the type people want. This division experience. Let’s see how he does.

    The lad's twenty ffs.

    How is he automatically 'one for the future' when Jobe is two years younger and had only played a couple of dozen adult games ...

    ... these'll be the same people whinging that Rigg isn't being given game time.

    Burnley had 50% loans in their team last season and are doing great now aren't they.
    I'm more than happy to sign our players with the odd loan chucked in as a filler.

    I said pre season that Shankland was worth a pint and I've not seen anything to change my mind even at £2m.

    Shankland has been linked with Celtic on and off Big debate amongst my Celtic pals though about who is the best prospect in Scotland between him and Miovski at Aberdeen. I know you're based up there and they are different types of player but who would be you're choice if we were in for either. I know Shankland score goals but really like the look of Miovski.
    Shankland a big Rangers fan apparently so not sure he'd go to Celtic.

    I guess this game is all about opinions as I think DN is very suited to the holding midfield role and think our whole system of playing changed when TM wanted him higher up the pitch and started trying to get Hume to invert in their to release DN. Neil has good awareness and moves around the pitch well likes to take a ball on the half turn and has a good range of passing. His breaking up of play was improving all the time and will get better with game time in that position. Maybe he just needs time but I think he could become fantastic in that role as he is already good at it and seems to always be able to find space and time on the ball. Sure there may be the odd mistake but at the moment I think he will prove more than capable.
