I suspect if CH has a way of playing which is not in line with the way our CEO wants us to play there will only be one winner given the point total we currently have

My argumentative response (LOL)

While both at Brighton and Norwich, he played this purely negative style in the Premier League - where he clearly did not outclass the personnel of the opponent. Now here, if we were to employ Cannon, Worrel, McKenna and Buchanan across the back 4 with Garner in front, we could reasonably say that we have top talent vis a vis the league and therefore could assume that we would be able to push forward more due to those players being able to hold better.

I should have been a lawyer. Or drink more. Or both.

I think that Murphy needs to give Hughton enough rope to hang him self, by providing the players to enable a more adventurous playing style.
If Hughton still stays with his dour and ultra defensive set up - then he can open the trap door

I would imagine the preferred style of operation of the CEO also conflicts with that of CH,i.e-construct a
suitable squad BEFORE the season starts and be properly ready for the first league match.

As you know, a different issue.

I think we should just agree to differ. We both want the same outcome, but you're all for the traditional, old-school method of handing the entire transfer budget over to a manager who, in CH's case, will be moving-on next summer (hopefully, not before then I should hasten to add), which is fair enough.

I'm all for the fundamental re-set that will happen over the next 12-months-or-so, hopefully ending the 20-plus-years-cycle that has so far miserably failed us under a succession of owners and f***ing countless managers.

Been told that the deal for this lad broke-down at a very late stage in proceedings, at the American end. Almost at the point where "Reggie had his bags packed" according to my source.

If we're out of the woods maybe a January bid with an eye on next year.

You can never have enough right backs.

Just reading the Athletic article about which US players will be on the move this summer and reminded me that we tried for this fella late in the summer window right before we went for Spence.

I wonder if he is back in our thoughts? Seems he’s ready to move…

USMNT’s Reggie Cannon eyes World Cup spot after a “very difficult season” in Portugal | MLSSoccer.com

Certain aspects of Reggie Cannon’s situation at Boavista FC are pleasant, even glamorous.
www.mlssoccer.com www.mlssoccer.com

“But it was a very difficult season. A transfer fell through in the summer, transfers fell through in January. It's just what it is. I just have to keep going and I know my time will come, but I just got to be patient and keep working hard. And that's what I’ve been doing.”

“I can't even imagine, at this point, how many transfers that have fallen through at the last second. And it's so stressful, it's so frustrating,” he said. “But I just know that this is where I'm meant to be right now. And that's where I've got to deal with it. I've learned a new position this year. I've learned how to play at the top of my game consistently this year.”

“So I'm looking at the positives but again, whatever happens happens, and I hope this summer is the summer, because I've seen a lot of promising opportunities pop up. So let's just hope everything works out.”

American soccerball players?
How many are actually decent enough for the Prem?
Horvath isn't.
Laryea isn't.
The 2 lads at Leeds aren't (despite us being linked with them).
The fulham centreback is an absolute liabitlity.

I agree, but at the price he really isn’t that unrealistic and overpriced a target. Teams from most leagues in Europe seem keen so there is that. Both Milan teams for example. Too good for Forest ?

WHam are trying to unload the lad they wasted 30mil on recently. That’s just the nature of the PL.

You wouldn’t get Saka for £125m right now.

Big boys league, big boys money, got to buy into that game now.

We have hit Gold with MGW and Danilo. They’d will have cost us £60m plus before we’re done. Both had risk associated.

I think that’s where I am on him. I know f*** all about tactics and how players might fit with certain styles but I can see whether someone can play the game pretty well. Hopefully I’m just slightly off on this one (although odds are we’re not in for him anyway!).
