    Tbh any of the top 6 could sign him... He gets injured quite alot, so if he gets one soon nufc will get him.....

    I'll just welch of the bet if I lose and annoy GG until he yields .... Then I'll change my avy and he'll think why didn't he do it in the 1st place.

    I'll ruin the experience for him completely

    Forest are rancid, they’re heading for oblivion. Lingard on €200k a week, they’ll end up in admin in about 2yrs…..what a stupid gamble to take buying all those ****e players

    They’re probably not that bad individually but they all only met a month ago. Their problem was they had nothing. So many loan players which tells me the loan system is ****ed and, like so much of the game, weighted to bigger clubs. They might eventually click and stay up, they might be financially ok enough to go down and keep a lot of this squad to challenge in the champ the next season.

    I’m not sure they should be hated on for having a go. They spent less on a new squad than Man U did on two players.

    Decent points but backs up what some of us have said as to the reasons we never made wholesale changes and why we never got rid of Lascelles, Shelvey etc. You simply can't change out an entire squad and expect them all to gel straight away.

    Forest were shockingly bad last night, their passes never hitting their intended targets, far too easy to cut out and Leicester didn't even need to press them to get the ball back.

    As for Henderson, he reminded me of Woodman and Darlow last season. He was utter ****.

    I see Blyth have been drawn at home to Wrexham in the last qualifying round for the FA Cup - time to get revenge for 1978 ....

    I for one never said we needed an entire squad, I felt we were just two players (RW & CM) from progressing quickly. But your point is true, relationships, understanding, camaraderie, clearly all plays a big role and for us plebs outside the club we have to trust to the management that they get it better than we do!

    Aye. According to Wilson he was assured that he is first choice striker and that Isak can play across the front 3
