Michail Gregory Antonio

[tropix]

I'm trying not to be duped by his cool sounding name. Let's say he's called Michael Ant. Are we interested?

From a wendies forum...



Sounds perfect for us.

Looks like this one has legs

Nottingham Forest are lining up a move for Sheffield Wednesday winger Michail Antonio. #NFFC #SWFC

Ah, a new Tyson then.

Tbh, I think we missed having a Tyson option quite a few times since he left. He's no stalwart ala Morgan, but 24 starts for them last season suggest he can still play a significant part in keeping us up.

Would like this, especially if Adomah is a no go. Blace and flair

Can we call him Adam Ant? At least he'd be a dandy highwayman.

Local Sheffield paper seems to think it's done. 1.5-2m though? Sounds a bit steep

Adam Ant is a bit before my time unfortunately. I'm sticking with Mike Ant

Wednesday journo at the Sheffield Star:

@domhowson: I understand Michail Antonio is on the verge of leaving #SWFC and joining #NFFC. He will have a medical at Forest tomorrow.

Good stuff, decent signing I think, already has good experience but young and with potential to get even better

 

[Liaminho]

Good signing if we pull it off.

We need some blace.

 

[redanddeadly]

reported interest from Premier league clubs as well.

 

[Nffc]

how ruddy much!!

 

[DapperDan]

Alan Nixon said it's about £400k

 

[T.O.Tricky.]

We'll need his pace to help stretch the pitch. As of now, I don't think we have one speedster.

 

[Green Jumper]

Alan Nixon said it's about £400k

It will prob be £250K plus a few add ons. Spread over 3 years it's worth a punt if we can get Mackie wages off the books!

Alan Nixon is wildly wrong with that fee. Multiply it by 4.75.

Sauce? We want our arses f***ing with a wire brush if we're paying 2m for him, yet letting our other players go for the reported amounts. It's like trading Porche's for Nova's + sweets. Antonio's a decent player, but not got Prem potenial like Lascelles or Lansbury.

 

[EmmersonForest4]

If its in the millions then I really struggle to understand the strategy of our chairman.

 

[Collymore!]

Underwhelming, especially at £1.5-£2m

 

[Cortez the Killer]

One of my work colleagues (a Wednesday fan) has just texted me to say he's heard it's £2m

 

[browserbrody]

Very happy if this goes through,guys quick and always stood out when watching wednesday..get him in!

Their local paper is reporting that price, possibly to appease upset fans. I'm inclined to believe Nixon

Does seem a lot of money.

With what we've spent on players so far I am too
