Clrnc yup, and now we're deciding we need another midfielder cuz of Elneny's injury when this guy was available for 20m. Oh well.

Kolo given just two months at Wigan. Sacked already. Ridiculous really.
Not surprised. Reportedly he lost the dressing room after losing 5 out of his first 6 matches, conceded 4 goals in 3 of those.
Really not suited to be a manager it seems, certainly not ready yet
What a shame. Hope he gets a shot somewhere else. To be fair, Wigan sound like a really challenging environment to be airlifted into at the moment, not sure it was the best starting point for his career.
MistaT Carabao vs United.
Very good passing between the lines, always looks forward. Great under pressure, good range of passing and one touch. Even though rusty and lacks match fitness on his first start you can see the immense potential there especially his interception and tackling.
We probably gonna buy this Fernandinho regen for 60m next summer. Edu has a good eye. Bruno G and now this.
Yeah that’s a great looking match.
Thanks for sharing.
He won’t be at Forest for very long going by that.
It's very weird when we're seemingly after players like Bruno and this guy, can get them if we want and then just don't.

Weird why we opted not to buy him. At that price there didn't seem to be too much risk. Especially in hindsight when we're now desperately scrambling for any decent midfielder and they all cost 60-100m.
est even more so when we spent more than that on a CB this same window.
Could've been about minutes, plain and simple. We need the cover but he wouldn't start at Arsenal.
Wouldn't make sense. You mean he would have rejected us for a first team spot at the great Nottm Forest?
I mean that's not a terrible idea if he's thinking about his long-term career. Look what's happened with Sambi - whilst there may be some questions over his potential, difficult to argue that he's not really been given a shot.

Sure. Minutes. From both ends, though.
I'm pretty convinced the thing influencing our thinking about midfield, the reason we're being linked with Rice and threatening to drop £60m on Caicedo, is that we want a signing that upgrades and bolsters a very solid, functional trio.
That trio looks far better than they did last summer when we were tracking Danilo. At that point Xhaka was being extended instead of sold against half of our wishes, Partey's legal troubles were more ominous, Ødegaard's form less supreme, and a return to Champions League football wasn't guaranteed.
In summer we needed cover. Now we still need cover but the cover will never play a serious match unless he's world class or someone's injured.
Burnwinter It's ok, all bets are off and make sense now that we are moving for Caicedo. We wanted someone guaranteed to be good and have money to burn
The ambition we show these days is still pretty surprising isn't it! Can't complain.
Casemiro is utter class man. A good CM can add so much to your game. 70m for him is really a bargain all things considered.

mitoma is the one I'd happily spend 70m+ on. check his goal against Liverpool in injury time. supreme composure, and he was a menace throughout

What even is Mitoma!? This guy is out of control. Stunning goal against 'pool in the cup.
