Brennan Johnson is probably worth more than Djed now after scoring a couple for Wales but I feel he would still choose Forest over Spurs, even with better wages and Champions League football.

Spurs aren't a fantastic football club, they're massive wankers with a cheese shop in their ground

From reports, he seems definitely now off our radar.

I'm wondering if it's a deliberate attempt to get Spurs or other teams to show their cards before coming back in late on.
Money talks and if a big club wants him there's no doubt he'll go but he liked it here and fitted in which counts for a fair amount.
All this talk about other full backs might be the club just saying, look, we don't have to buy you, there are others we could go for - a bit like the Henderson stuff with Samba.

I don’t think we’re even considering Spence now
I kinda feel sorry for Djed, all the talk since January has been about him going to Arsenal, Spurs, Bayern etc yet non have made a bid for him.
Now we're short on time and can't wait to see what happens to him so need a replacement asap, he could realistically still be at Boro next season.

I think so too. We can't really afford to wait all summer for this saga to reach a conclusion. We'll move onto another target we can get before the season starts.

Imagine if we sign someone else, then Spurs end up not signing him and he ends up at Boro

You have to imagine that a team as well organised as Dane's would be well aware of the likelihood of any move to Spurs etc falling through and be close enough to know if there's a deal to be done - does get complicated by possible replacement though. Truth be told the whole thing nowadays is akin to putting yourself into a process more akin buying a house with multiple chain dependenciesImagine if we sign someone else, then Spurs end up not signing him and he ends up at Boro

It's all about mid-table...
If Boro don't hold us to ransom, I'd like us to sign him.
I think he'd stop a lot of crosses coming into our box in the 1st division.

Gunter's available on a free too! We could use the remainder of the Gunter money on his wages!

I feel a bit sorry for the lad if so. His agent is probably trying to get one of the big hitters to make a move, but if they don't and Forest move onto other targets he could end up stuck at Boro.
I hope for his sake that he isn't at Boro this coming season. He's a good player and needs to be playing in the Premier League.

If that's the case then he needs to fuk iz agent off and geriz Dad in to do it.
Zero sympathy from me for players who are all about money and greed.

It's Djed's loan to us that has raised his profile. If it wasn't for Forest teams like Spurs wouldn't be in the slightest bit interested. He wasn't going anywhere at Boro, and his value wasn't that high, we have allowed him to flourish and vastly increase his value. Obviously Boro want to make the most of that and get the best monetary return for him but if they thought they could have our pants down after the way we developed him and brought him on it looks as if we're not playing that game. We're looking elsewhere.

Williams > Djed

Steve Chettle
Disagree, Djeds size and pace make him better suited to our game than a smaller, slower albeit more steady right back

I don't think there's too much difference height wise but pace definitely.

Steve Chettle
I agree. I'd be happy enough with Williams if we can't get Spence, but given the choice between the two I'd take Djed every time.

Steve Chettle
For me it'd go Spence > Kabore > Williams. I think the pace down that side is one of our most important weapons.

Especially since Worrall comes across and pretty much plays as a make shift RB at times covering for Spence when he needs to, allowed Spence to play more as a winger than a wing back which obviously worked well for us
