Screw The PL
Depends how much we would get for him. I know Chelsea were sniffing in the summer so that would be the most logical in terms of getting an inflated fee.
I imagine everyone else would be put off by his injury record and we would not be able to get much more than 20-25, which I think is too risky to sell for that much. When fit and firing he is a top 10 striker in the league.
I would agree that at 20-25m you likely keep hold.

Like Mangala, 30-35m, different situation all together.

I worry that we're gonna sell off all our better players which Murph sourced like Mangala and Awoniyi, and replace them with shit like Sangare & Akpom.
I thought George Syrianos sourced the lads we signed from Germany, whilst Murphy brought in O'Brien, Toffolo and Bowler amongst others that summer Alf?
I'm happy for you to correct me however.

Apologies Otis, you are correct. I should have said "oversaw" as opposed to "sourced".
Very much a mixed-bag in terms of success then, which is perfectly understandable given the situation of not having a PL-level recruitment set-up, for obvious reasons, and barely half-dozen-or-so contracted players left after the PO-Final.

I wish most of the fuc.king so-called expert pundits in the media who constantly mocked the size of our recruitment had even a remote clue before fuc.king spouting-off!

Sell him to ffp immune Chelsea in the summer for £60m and laugh all the way to the bank.

Only this being Forest he'll then play a full season scoring 35 goals whilst his replacement here, a Mendes client scores 2 (both in the FA cup defeat at Shrewsbury).
We laugh, but you know this is absolutely what would happen.

My issue with him is his stupid fu**ing grinning face every time he makes a balls up, which he does quite often !
I mean, teams like Man Utd are moaning about players like Rashford sulking and having bad body language, whilst we’re moaning about a striker keeping his head up when he makes a mistake.
The modern footballer literally cannot win.

Nuno says Taiwo will be out for another couple of games, at least. According to this report.

He's injured. Club thought he was out for the season initially apparently, so three more is good news (assuming that's what it says - Percy reported three weeks last week irrc).

Edit: scroll up say I remember wrong, but I heard there weeks somewhere.
