Igor Thiago

Judging by average premier players like Minteh and Baleba moving for 70m, I can see Brentford holding out for more.

It only takes Spurs/Chelsea/Man Utd to panic, enter the market and push that figure up to 100m.

He feels like a spurs signing.
 
More chance of Doctor Zhivago.
 
This is an absolute none starter for me. Absolute zero chance Brentford would sell him to us this late in the window. Only chance he moves is for big money abroad, or to one of the sky six.
 
Absolutely zero chance of it coming off though.

A - Brentford will feel they can get more.
B - He wouldn’t fancy us.
C - I don’t know if we really are in for him or if it’s just the club making noise to appease fans.
 
I've never thought this guy was coming to us, nor Bergvall or Reijnders. Accepted that they are just rumours and gossip, and hopefully the club is working on actual realistic signings in the background.

Definitely. No chance of it as if he was available at that price bigger clubs than us needing a striker would be all over it. We'd probably offer more in wages than Brentford but I'm afraid to say on the pitch it would be a backwards move for him.

It has Cunha, Wissa and Mateta vibes about it from the past few windows. Going for players we're never getting just to look ambitious only to end up with 3rd choices like Dodo.

Why does this have to be a case of Forest appeasing the fans?
Knowing that NFFC never comment on rumours and speculation, how do we know that this Rudi Galetti bloke isn't just chucking this out there to get clicks and appear ITK and relevant?

To be fair he did say he dosent know what the case is. It smells of PR to me but I dont really know and its plausible that its a journo running his mouth off.
 
From interviews I've seen, it sounds like Glasner knows exactly the two he wants, and is very confident of getting them. I don't think Thiago fits that.

To be clear Emmo, I wasn't having a pop at Macca, I was merely offering another point to the 3 he made in his post. I should also add that I know nothing about the reliability or not of the original source, Galetti. Is he a journalist?

My guess was that the players he's talking about will get done but the other clubs are waiting to get a replacement in first.
 
If this bid was genuine it would surely have been reported elsewhere since then. Complete non-starter imo, and I’m not too disappointed about that either.

Fairs that’s the problem with reading writing you never can judge the tone. Yeah I agree with your point of view as well.

We can’t afford punts like this either. The risk reward ratio is bad. It could be a transfer that could easily lead to relegation in the future. Cause is it goes toes up we won’t get his value back and than we have to sell decent players.
