I'd take Foderingham from Sheff Utd. He's not been playing recently (except today) as he refused to sign a new contract.
I normally hold your opinion in high regard. But think fodderingham is terrible. I want him nowhere near Forest. I’d take turner over him as second choice any day.

Turner is good enough to be second choice goalkeeper. It's easy to forget that he actually had a really good start to his time with us - it was just a shame that when his confidence went, it badly affected him - and, unfortunately for all parties, Vlachodimos was absolutely hopeless so Turner was thrown back into the firing line when his head clearly wasn't right.

There's a good goalkeeper in there somewhere at least - as opposed to Vlachodimos who is so ineffective at stopping shots I'm beginning to suspect he doesn't actually exist.

In any case, Sels has been terrific. Just what we needed to steady the ship - and clearly has the mental fortitude to handle the immense pressure he's been under.

Sels seems to have the overall game for a genuine Prem number 1. Looks like he’s settled into life at Forest and I’m another in the camp that’d be pleased to see him as our starter for next campaign. Any significant upgrade will likely break the bank and use funds that’d be much better invested elsewhere in the squad. Just need to find someone to take Turnip, Odysseus Dropsalotashots and some magic beans off our hands…

We’d be mid table if it wasn’t for Turner, he was absolutely shocking.

It looks like Sels may have the Number 1 jersey for the Belgian national team after 3 caps in 2024.

I must admit I hadn't heard much of him before so he's certainly surprised me in the best possible way.

He's a lot calmer and stoic than recent goalkeepers Forest have had. As Roy Keane would say, he just gets on and does his job without drama. When he makes a mistake, it doesn't look like his world falls apart. He tries to make up for it and he's switched on straight away.

£5m? Another bargain really.
