Jed Wallace

Apparently WBA bound. I still think this would have been good business on a free. Player who is certainly creative, can play a few positions and will want to prove himself in division above. Especially with 5 substitutions in games and we are light on numbers.

Agree, we can't be spending 10m+ on 10 or so players which we would be needing. Who knows, maybe EM intends to.

Nothing against Wallace at all but I’d bloody love to see WBA struggle again under Mrs Doubtfire. Feels like their last roll of the dice paying the Championship high earners and they could sink into the sort of football coma Forest had been in until Cooper’s kiss of life

Shame if Wallace is going there. Much too talented for that bunch of thugs and big lumps.

I think EM does intend to do that tbh.

Hijack this, Coops. Would be an excellent free signing

West Brom can offer him money and regular football. We can now offer the former but probably not the latter (if we have any ambitions of staying up), so I still think he'd choose West Brom over us for that reason.

Was always going to end up at a parachute payment Championship team IMO.

You're probably right. Depends whether, for him, the two are equally weighted

It’s whether you can sell the chance to make his mark in the premier league. He’s not gonna get guaranteed regular football but has the chance to make his mark and earn a place up there. This is probably his best chance given his age to do it.

Yep, if a Premier league club loses out on someone to a championship them surely it's because either they've even offered silly money they can't refuse or they don't believe in their ability to break into the team and play at a higher level. Either way I'm not sure it represents a player you want to sign.

Or this could all be cobblers and we were never in for him

 

[MaxiRobriguez]

I've said it a few times but if a PL club wanted him already they would have paid money for him. Reality is his transfer fee cost at any point in last few years would have been easily affordable so if he was deemed an important player to sign they wouldn't wait until context expiry.

The only way he plays in the PL next year is if we get promoted and he signs for us.

WBA is a likely destination because they've got parachute payments to offer big bucks and they are in a tough spot where they might throw cash at established players in this league. A bit like Mowatt last year.

Signed for WBA...

 

[mysteryduck]

I suspect he dropped off our targets list when we got promoted.

Almost certainly IMO, that boat set sail in January. We wouldn't have been able to compete with parachute payment clubs wages if we had stayed down, and he isn't what we need now we've gone up.

Not surprising in the slightest that he has signed for West Brom.

 

[MaxiRobriguez]

Think he would have been a good squad option on a free. We need two #10's.

Nevermind, clearly we weren't that fussed after promotion.

 

[Redemption]

I wasn't bothered by him, but he does have the set-piece skills we desperately need

wba has done well , first john swift , now jed wallace. Next season , they should do well with dike fit as well.

Mowatt behind them both too.

Maybe they'll sign Darren Pratley next.

Jed said himself at the NTT20 live thing that we tried to sign him in Jan

 

[Cortez the Killer]

I wonder if we'd have pushed harder if Johnson had been sold? Either way, it doesn't matter now.
