If Brennan to spurs falls through last minute will the big man say f*** it and go for sangare anyway?

 

[MaxiRobriguez]

The whole saga and recently developments stinks of posturing.

Forest clearly value the lad highly and want to land him. PSV are happy to cash in on him. Sangare clearly wants to keep his options open as Forest aren't first choice.

Forest knowing all that aren't bidding the release clause because there's no point. If a better club really wanted him they'd bid at the clause and he'd already have left. So Forest are simply waiting for PSV to run out of time to sell if no other club comes along, and then our under-release-clause bid, if it's the only one on the table, will be a take it or leave it jobbie and PSV might decide that £25m is better than £0 if they've already found a replacement. A loan-to-buy type offer now just sets expectation to PSV that we're not going to go in at full price so if they want to cut a deal they need to negotiate.

Meanwhile Sangare and his agent are getting nervous about the above and are drip-feeding stories to the press about interest from Liverpool and Bayern to try and elicit some interest from the next rung of clubs down: Your Brighton's, Spurs, Villa's etc, because "if Liverpool and Bayern are in for him he must be good enough for us."

My guess is this will go down to deadline day, and it's a coin-flip as to whether Sangare joins us for a cut price deal or he stays at PSV.

Can I say I called it?

BIG BIG signing this

 

[challenger]

Changes everything. If this happens we are about to see Coopball in full effect in the Prem!

Only TWO years ago on deadline day we signed Mohamed Drager, Braian Ojeda, Xande Silva & Rodrigo Ely

Praise god for miracles!

When Rik Elfrink says its happening with PSV, its happening.

I sat down and watched PSV v Rangers as a form of self torture to see what "we could have had" and he absolutely bossed the midfield. He always looked the real deal from the few times i've seen him but the other night i just kept thinking "f***ing hell he's good".

And now he's coming to Forest

 

[donny]

I'm watching aircraft at Eindhoven airport, one Bizjet there, possible move on that.

 

[Collymore!]

EM will deffo do this regardless!

Brennan is still at our training ground - would love that to fall through and still get Sangare (although then Coops has some big selection headaches)

 

[youreds1986]

A beast like Sangare could unlock a whole host of new ways of us playing.

It allows four at the back, it allows wingbacks to push further on if a five, it allows Danilo and MGW a lot more protection to go and make things happen.

Fundamentally though I just hope that Sangare (and Murillo) allow us to move further up the pitch rather than sitting in our own box. That alone creates time and options for everyone else to be better on the ball,too.

 

[Morpeth]

Sky Sports seem to have zero idea that we’re about to sign Sangare. That Rob Dorsett must just be sitting eating his sandwiches.

 

[Masuka]

Can we think of something more creative than the inevitable ibrahim sangare to the tune of do the conga

 

[Dirk Furtull]

The way this dragged on I'd assumed it was never going to happen. What's prompted him to (hopefully) sign? Clearly Wednesday's scintillating performance!

Yes.
Only if I get some credit for what I did last night

 

[JohnnyCarey]

This is both literally and figuratively a game-changer for Forest. Literally because he will transform the way we play, making us much more able to dictate play rather than react to it. And figuratively because being able to bring in a player at his level ups the ante for the way the club will be perceived from here on in.
I also think that, even though the money is eye-watering, it could be a great business deal. If Sangare establishes himself as an elite-level DM in the PL, he'll be worth at least twice what we're playing.
Happy days.

 

[Grass]

OMG please be true.

This is the player I wanted above all.
He literally is a game changer for us.

 

[HBB]

The best day possible would be we sign Sangere, tell Spurs to f*** off, keep Johnno and land a striker - THAT would be a statement to the rest of the PL

 

[Strummer]

Oh, I don’t know, I quite like that?

 

[RichNFFC]

Well I'm just happy we're replacing Tyrese Fornah

 

[ArthurD]

I would love to have him and keep BJ, but I cannot see how that happens.

 

[Rzar]

The thing I love the look of of this guy is he is one of those very very few defensive midfielders in the world that are also a goal threat

If any of the top 6 signed him nobody would bat an eyelid, this will be a major signing if we get it over the line

 

[The Frog]

Would be great to get Sangare but I am very nervous about trying to replace Jonno’s goals and outlet from last season with little time left.

CHO himself is a gamble and Origi simply isn’t going to cut it if Awoniyi gets injured
