He was supposed to be out injured but he looked OK scampering around looking for DIY stuff Lol..I sold him a new PC not long after he signed for Villa. Wanted it on credit and was declined by the finance company. True story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 By all accounts Lolley hasn't been that great for Forest this season, even saw some of their fans saying that they hoped we came in for him in January. We're probably not going to sign a winger, but if we were, it's wouldn't be because we're short of wingers, it would be because we need better quality, so I don't think there'd be any point unless we were signing significantly better than we already have in that position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to agree. Lolley would not be an upgrade on what we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danishlad Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I think we can loan Four players. Two from Premier league, and two from elswhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanBalaban Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Assuming we've not earmarked the final domestic loan slot for another player, surely a 6 month loan for Albrighton would be an upgrade on what we have? Especially if we'll soon have a striker that can head the ball. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveAV1 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I’ve been reading the comments section of the BBC report on yesterday’s game. Despite the BBC naming Maupay MOTM he’s been getting a lot of stick from some of their fans. Their main complaint seems to be that he never shoots, so perhaps we didn’t buy him because he’s not as good as many of us, me included thought he was. I know he’s often touted as the one that got away in the summer, but I’d be interested to hear what people who went to Brighton yesterday thought of him.

He is one the reason they are near the bottom. People on here saying look at Brentford after Smith has left. Well Maupay left too!

Have to say watching him yesterday I thought he’d be a good inside forward in a 3-4-3 (ie with Grealish behind a striker) but I wasn’t sure we were missing out on much on him leading the line (well, I mean we currently have nobody, so obviously I’d rather have him than nobody). But then it’s all going to depend how Samatta does, we might be wishing for 5 goals from Maupay between now and June or Samatta might knock in 10 and we are laughing... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deeps Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Reports we are back in for Giroud as his inter move has stalled. Suso throwing everything at him apparently for wages and bonuses etc. Daily Star though so massive pinch of salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Also linked in France with Giroud. If this heads towards us towards 352 then I'm for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post jacketspuds Posted January 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 19, 2020 If someone had said that we would sign Giroud and Samatta, albeit the latter has no PL experience but a good scoring record, I would have been chuffed to bits. Fingers crossed it's true. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREAT_BEARD_OF_ZEUS Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Giroud and Nzonzi, two French internationals who know Know other and would add unquestionably quality. Please please make it happen!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
