Here's what I'm thinking, I could be wrong.
With issues going on in Marseille with Rabiot and Rowe, I'm hoping they'll turn their attentions to reinforcements in those areas and put Zhegrova on the back burner, whilst we go in for him, Rowe is a left winger and I don't know what their plans are with Weah in terms of which flank he takes. Anyways probably wishful thinking that this is good timing, or I could be over thinking it.

Kalulu Bremer Akanji
Mario Danish guy Thuram Cambiaso
Chico KM Yildiz

Gatti Rugani Savona
McKennie O’rly Rabiot Kostic
Zhegrova David Koop

I think we can get Akanji on a loan with obligation deal. Danish guy should cost 60, o’Rly probably 30, Rabiot would be free maybe 10M and Zhegrova 15M. KM loan with obligation so he’s for next year costs. So that’s 115. If we want to be cheap we could skip out of the Danish guy try and sign Gündogan from City, probably for free, I’m pretty sure he can play regista

We sell Locasmelli for 45M, DL 30 M, get some money out of Vlahovic like 10-15M, maybe 5-10M for Kelly and some peanuts for Djalo. That’s potentially all covered.

David isn't going to ride the bench, and we should NEVER EVER bring back that Faggy French Cunt Benign Baguette.

If The French baguette comes back I will stop watching this club this year. FUCK Them

[Salvo]

So Koop replaces Douglas Luiz as a CM

We need another player behind the striker now as well as Kolo Muani

 

[Badass J Elkann]

lol 30 mill? am I reading this right? pathetic, and no don't anyone try and justify otherwise when Okafor goes for over 20 mill and Hutchinson from a relegated Ipswich goes for over 40, both unproven in the premier league unlike Luiz.

 

[Rockets]

It's a loan with obligation it seems.

 

[GarfielD]

Were people really hoping for 40m? lol

 

[Badass J Elkann]

It's a loan with obligation it seems.

an even bigger joke, we take the loan to bring his amortisation cost down by 10 mill so we've effectively given a discount to Forest

Actually happy with that after the disaster of a season he's had. Decent money imo. Was fearing another Arthur situation.

Bro, do you think Lulz said that he will only consider Forest and even if another club would outbid them he would refuse? No, it seems Forest was the only club willing to meet our minimal requirements for a transfer.

I would have said - fuck it pay the 40 mill or he doesn't go, Is O'Riley that much better than Luiz? fuck no and Luiz was bad last season, but I'd have taken my chances with him over spending 30 mill on O'Riley.

 

[Bianconero81]

So, we're signing this guy?

You never know, would you think McTominay would become one of the best players in Italy? Luiz showed a total lack of respect when he didn't present himself at Continassa for the beginning of preseason. Plus, it's not like he's going to a top team, he rather play for Nottingham Forest. I think it says a lot.

It's easier to see McTominay do well in Italy because he was stupidly underrated at man utd, his work rate was never in doubt and he was a crucial part of the little good that was left at man utd. Like I said before Luiz is a proven player in the EPL, the fact that we agreed to loan him out to bring his amortisation cost down by circa 10 mill and let him go for 30 mill permanently is just weak from our stand point.

I stand by my point that if O'Riley is the replacement at the rumoured cost of 30 mill... I'd sooner have kept Luiz this season.

Fuck you both!

Exactly.

 

[Buck Fuddy]

I agree.

Pathetic from Nottingham's point of view. Spending €30 million on Douglas Luiz is just laughable.

Luiz will do better for Forest than whoever we bring in to replace him in our midfield, and his replacement will near enough cost as much.

I don't even understand your reasoning here.
