The fact he loves Nakamba there and has tried both Chambers and an 18 year old shows the type of player he wants in that position. I reckon a CDM will be our first signing. fingers crossed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would assume so.....but I know Tony Barton, was the one who identifield our recruits in the Ron Saunders era........And Peter Taylor was the main man for that, at Forest. The manager in my understanding is the one who rubber stamps things, the others guide him in the direction, based on his requirements, but there are always exceptions.

I know Inter are interested but I think this deal has been locked up ages ago and just waiting for the season to end. The likes of Kamara will drag a bit longer because of the interested clubs and not the connection like Gerrard has with Coutinho and Suarez. Plus Suarez age! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No not always, there can be a variety of reasons why it hasn’t. How many free agents this summer have announced where they are going to be next season? Very few. How many do you think behind the scenes have agreed something with a club? Quite a few I bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free transfers can be signed from January onwards. Matip to Liverpool for example was announced in February. The big names that have yet to be announced this year are negotiating with multiple clubs for the best offer. If Suarez was as nailed on as you say it would be announced already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many others clubs seem to have put more focus on it than we have. I am not pointing fingers, but a big club like ours, it seems bizarre to me.....who was before Nakamba ,Jedinak/Whelan.....it seems upgrades have been forgotten. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
