    Forest have already bid once, weeks ago. They offered closer to £20m apparently. Players contractual situation also lowers the price apparently.

    What's all this bidding crap anyway? Do we honestly believe clubs are meant to guess an acceptable amount, fax it over and then wait to hear back.

    Get on the ****ing phone and haggle.
    2 sheckles for Wissa, you must be mad. Come on haggle!

    They'll get this one because I don't want him.

    In terms of football matches, goals are the more exciting moments.

    He's getting on.

    I did say Wissa was on Newcastles list about 3 years ago though and everyone laughed... He was probably was 25 or 26, so, it made sense psr wise then.

    29 year old at high expense... It's just a bit desperate and lazy... Maybe safe though I suppose.... It's hardly going to make our best players think wow we're having a go.

    Look at the outrage of potentially selling Bruno, Isak and Gordon.
    The club might as well get players already there.

    Not every signing is a "how will we make money" from it.

    He's a top drawer attacking player that can play across the front 3.

    He's a star

    An established PL striker who is 29 yo and has scored c40 goals in last two seasons is not expensive at £30M by any stretch of the imagination. D-

    He's the same age as Wilson when we signed him with a better prem record.

    So THAT'S why we didn't get Pedro or Ekitike.

    In that case, can you please NOT want Wissa, Scalvini, Trafford, plus 3 young 'gem' players as well. Thanks.

    It's a small fry signing... I don't even see where he fits in. A bench player that's 29 and will kill psr... They'll get nowt back.

    Pedro and ekitike to wissa is a massive drop off in multiple areas imo and that's all this is.. Everyone else can be excited pulling an orange from their stocking.

    Isak will be rolling his eyes.... Just not great kinda thing... Not awful but hardly transformative.
