Have you tried using a 12 foot ladder?

Sauce salad?
My money is on West ham for this one.

My German is woeful but I can only see a mention of Brentford using 12ft ladder, presume we will be one and that obviously means Everton will be the other!

Think that's just referring to the fact Stuttgart played Brentford yesterday
It doesn’t actually say; the article talks about Mangala not being in the first choice XI at present, due to the transfer speculation, and mentions he did not play in Saturday‘s friendly against Brentford, and that this was perhaps unexpected because fellow midfielder Atakan Karazor is still being investigated by the Spanish Police following a rape accusation against him whilst on a post-season holiday (and thus, he didn’t play either).

West Ham and Palace are the other teams reportedly interested. We've made an initial offer:

Hope we can get this one done, another one that I have a gut feeling would be an excellent addition.

Easy for me to say but if they want 15m euros that seems a very fair price. Pay it before we get gazumped! We really need to get one of these exciting European chaps over the line and everything will start to look rosier.

Same. I have high hopes for our Bundesliga recruits so far, but I reckon this lad would be the pick of the bunch if we get him (closely followed by Niakhate).
Orel Mangala update:
The Belgian has tested positive for Coronavirus and thus is in isolation.
Again rumours abound of him leaving the VfB, the few now mooted at €15m, but the club confirmed today, no offers matching that valuation have been received - yet.

Stupid question but with the German fan model is there ever an occasion where the club consults the fans ( or a fans group) regarding either buying or selling?

A player I very much want to see us sign too.
Not on business terms, but quite often, supporter representatives let it be known that any mooted sale of particular players might well be met with dissent.
Conversely, German fans are also only too open about expressing their opinion that certain players, perhaps those deemed not putting in a shift, should be directed to the door marked „Raus“!
I was having a Bier with VfB Stuttgart Sporting Director, Sven Mislintat, the other week, and casually mentioned Forest were looking for a central midfielder.

I'm not sure if he looks a bit too similar to O'Brien stylistically speaking, maybe a different type of midfielder would fit better now?

Yeah would really like Vranckx now. Just pure energy and physicality with upside
Bob Fossil

Been hearing this a lot of late- by a few of the analytics folk as well. It's likely that we want him & O'Brien for one spot and Yates & another more physical /defensive player of the same mould (Vranckx) for the other, no?

Yeah nothing from this end so far
