well yeh. But it also just doesn’t suit our model. A player with championship experience we’d be happy to sign would have limited resale value (vs transfer spend) and high wages.
It sounds like a certain striker who was once a great fit for a club that gave him a new lease of life after also being frozen out by their parent club, i wonder why he also decided to move to a different club instead of staying at the club that got him back to where he wanted to be.
This is going to cause a lot of knock-on-effects, setting a new wage bar/norm...in the Premier League.

Seems like there are a few articles with different amounts which probably means no-one knows. Still sounds a wedge of cash mind
I don't think it will be 200k a week, forest have already made some big money signings. 80k is more likely I reckon. They need to cover themslelves with relegation reduction clauses though or else they could be ****ed
Lingard not just gone to Forest cause he’ll be playing every week and that’s what he needs to do to have a chance of going to the World Cup? It’s clear Southgate fancies him, picked him whenever he could, so if he’s fit and playing he’s got a very good chance of going ♂️
Nobody else think it would be hilarious if Parrott turned us down and said he’s not coming because our fans are sad bastards who keep repeating sentences that mention his name?

can’t recall anyone receiving the level of booing which was game long and the loudest , I think everyone felt so let down by him walking away when everything was going so well for him and the club - money grabber !!!
