    Looks like Navas and possibly Felipe for us. With Angelo heavily rumoured as well.

    Mental few days ahead once again for us.

    The potential money that McKennie could go for would be bonkers to me.

    I think if you stay up you’ll get him. Utd seem to want better and you’ve shown the ability and ambition needed to convince a player like him to join.

    not if he spends the second half of the season watching Navas, he's not leaving PSG to sit on the bench either

    He’s inconsistent and just hasn’t shown anything to take his game to the next step as a player. I do think he’s talented but have been disappointed by his time at Juve. I get it’s a club that has been in shambles the last few years but would’ve thought he’d be playing at a higher level at this point.

    TBF I thought he fee was somewhere round the 20 mark. Just seen it's up to 40million Euros.

    Exactly. 20m would not be a bad fee at all even if it potentially went higher with add ons. Anything above 30m just seems way too much

    It does look abit like we going abit scatter gun which is concerning but I'm sure Steve Cooper being the strong character he is would veto anyone he deemed unnecessary

    Forest are already offloading people they bought in the summer. That's embarrassing and I'd be worried if I was a supporter being honest.

    I think when so many have to be brought in there's a chance a few of them won't work out.

    Nobody's been sold either (yet), just a few rumours of some being loaned out.

    A high turnover of players has always been Marinakis' style at both clubs he owns. I don't like it one bit but am prepared to give the benefit of the doubt if it's met Cooper's approval.

    Bright Osayi-Samuel in talks from Fenerbahce, according to Turkish media. Rapid full back or winger, who used to play for QPR I think.

    I guess if they can sell them on it's not so bad but yes would have been wasted money.

    Why do I need to worry? What can I do about it?

    Forest's approach is 'all guns blazing' to put it lightly but now that they've turned the corner on the pitch, their approach in this window makes sense imo. Yes, it looks silly to ship out players who have lasted 6 months, but they're obviously taking the view now of supplementing the squad with more quality.

    Yes, you'd think they're in quite a bit of trouble if they go down but the approach to window is their best path to staying up. No point keeping around players who aren't adding anything just because they haven't been there long.

    Vina on his way, ironically thanks to Leeds. Now being linked with Hamed Traore. We desperately need a CM so I'll be pleased if that one comes off.

    Still hoping we can get in a right back, if Fredericks is crocked. Stacey isn't up to it.

    An actual left back with some pedigree in Vina, that is welcome.

    Thank you Leeds!
