Absolutely. I just don't think he will single-handedly drag us 5-6 places up the table, just as I never thought Sangare would. It's 100% a very good signing on paper and I'm excited to see him.

We're set to be relegated along with Wolves and Ipswich according to the Daily Mirror's "super-computer", with the 'dippers and Soton surviving at our expense in 17th and 16th respectively.
What was the number one thing Forest from last season desperately needed to improve on?
Defending set pieces and crosses.
And they’ve just done that, with the signing of the Serbian 6‘5“ centre back.
You can’t complain about that.

If we play exactly the same as last season but defend set pieces properly it likely will drag us up 5-6 places.
He's not gonna do it single handedly but he can make a huge difference if it means we defend set plays better.

Not wishing to to appear particularly moved by recent events I will simply acknowledge receipt of the transfer information provided and go back to what I was doing.

FFS we've just signed a highly regarded 6ft 5 centre back addressing a key weakness in our side!

Great pick up and exactly the type of brawn we need at the back with Boly getting no younger. Had a bit of an average season last year which has probably been to our benefit in terms of reducing competition to sign him, even considering his drop in form that is a ridiculously good price. Can only assume la viola wanted to get his high wages off their books because he's worth much more than what we've paid

As I said, not trying to be negative, just not to get too carried away, in case he isn't actually the second coming.

I'm definitely not writing off another relegation scrap, but as far as I see it Leicester and Southampton are lesser teams than when they were relegated, while I can't help but feel Forest are an improving side. Not to mention Leicester's impending point penalty.

3rd in header % won last season & ironically Bijol is 6th who we have also been linked with on the left side.

I don't get your point? Everything said about Sangare could end up being true, he hasn't got going yet & has more to give.
I suppose we should never acknowledge a signing we desperately need incase they turn out not very good then.

It's fair to say he hasn't quite lived up to the excitement in that thread yet isn't it.
Meh, I'll shut up. I'm excited too, let's not just heap too many expectations on him.

We now have a 6 foot 8 Goalie and a 6 foot 5 centre half and I bet we still concede a soft goal from a corner on the opening day.
bijol is right footed. it's that marco guy at werder that is left.3rd in header % won last season & ironically Bijol is 6th who we have also been linked with on the left side.
I think that's a fair point and I can understand the logic of not getting carried away. Fair do's for being brave enough to say it.
Trouble is it can (and will) be seen as being negative when that is absolutely not your intention.

Well it looks like we could have some improvement on defensive set pieces and hopefully offensive set pieces too. Let’s face it any improvement in those areas can only be a benefit.
My man „Daxo“ at the top of that chart!3rd in header % won last season & ironically Bijol is 6th who we have also been linked with on the left side.
He’s another giant, nearly 2m tall, and he’s an absolute beast in the air.

Woe betide the pacy forward who attempts to spin into a gap between Milenkovic and Murillo . That doesn't end well for them.
and very injury prone apparently.

Didn't want to comment before the deal was completed but I'm excited for this one.
Definitely quality, in a perverse sort of way I'm looking forward to Dyche sticking Jack Harrison on our 6 foot 8 keeper to see the greasy little twerp sent into another dimension by him or our BFS defender.

Sorry i missed the bit where someone said he was. Can you let me know who, so i can lord it over them with my own sagacity too ?
Was somebody under the impression we were going to play a 1-0-0 formation?
While not trying to be negative either, i can assure you it comes across that way.

It's all about 17th...
Don't know him but sounds a good singing.
