Nikola Milenković / Никола Миленковић - „The SERBINATOR“

The stadium announcer at Chesterfield actually glitched when he tried to say Omobamidele.

You could visually see that he hadn't looked at the names beforehand. then all of a sudden he was reading the changes out..."BANG"....The first time his brain has ever had to compute the letters Omobamidele in that order.
i had a chuckle when it took him about 10 seconds to say Omobamidele

He only had his medical yesterday, it'll get announced today. The shirt was launched already (in terms of being visible, as opposed to on sale) so I don't think it's that. Unless he's modelling a new away shirt that looks like the Serbia flag or something.
I'm thinking that we might launch the away kit today or tomorrow with us playing Sunderland on Friday.

Was gutted to lose niakhate who I thought was potentially a captain/leader but to think we got a load of cash in and got this guy at half that rate at a younger age seems incredible.

Pleasing blend of toughness/aggression/silk to our centre backs now
The proof of the pudding is in the eating, as my wise old granny used to say.
It is going to be a massive learning curve and step up for the lad... I can't wait to see how he copes with the likes of Haarland etc.

All smiles but still looks hard as
Smiles, yes, but you just know he‘s got a set of brass-knuckles in his pocket, and he’s going to chop someone in the kidneys with them, as soon as the Referee‘s back is turned.

Six foot five, and looks like a proper defensive „stopper“!

I love this signing!

Sauce salad?
That's great news - feel like he's more a Nuno type than Niakhate, who I liked but probably wasn't aggressive enough, and he cost less too. Hope he does well for us and earns the right to take over from Boly over time... Solid work I feel.

I'm delighted that we're going to win the league this year.
I am helplessly optimistic. I am every season but I don't have that unease that I have done in the past couple of years.

I look at our team and think we might be able to have a tilt at europe. World of difference from when my optimism was we should be able to finish in the top 6 of the championship

Forest‘s ability to defend set-pieces has just improved significantly, I think.

Can I just encourage some restraint in our expectations? With the Sangare signing in mind. I've seen a couple of Italian football experts say he's good but not quite elite.

Here for example:


I'm not being negative, just don't want us all to get carried away and then disappointed.

Ffs monkman can’t you just allow us 24 hours to embrace this signing and make him out to be the next Vidic😂

He's exactly what we need based on pedigree and playstyle and comes at a great price.

He might be only "good" but that's subjective and certainly a player judged as good by a team that just lost in a European final is still likely more than good for us. How many of our signings have actually been very good for us despite the selling clubs fans not having much to say about them.

He will be judged on what he does on the pitch but on paper this is a great signing.

Forest aren't elite either though to be fair. If he turns out to "only" be good then that's still a successful signing for a premier league side fresh off a couple of relegation battles

He made 50 appearances for Fiorentina last season so he’s pretty robust, and then he did not look out of place for Serbia at the Euros.
