I can't help but feel like it's 2am and instead of trying our luck with the lonely looking girl, who is alright if a bit buck toothed we are going for the 10/10 who has had a number of horny blokes circling her all night whilst her millionaire boyfriend is on his way to pick her up in his Ferrari.

Unless this is a clumsy attempt to make the 8/10 who has already politely turned us down jealous. Not sure being rejected so publicly is going to change their mind.

Unless we’ve got a 8” fab lolly hidden in our trousers, and the 10/10 knows it and fancies a bit of rough?

For the avoidance of doubt, in this analogy, Steve Cooper is the penis.

More chance of Yusuf Islam.

Seriously, Forest are proper punching here.

But if they could pull this off (phnarr) this could be a game-changer of a signing.

Who forgot mint sauce. It was an implied given in my post.

The word that comes to mind is transformative. But transformations usually require miracles and there are not too many of those around.

The club wouldn't have bid if when they put the initial feelers out the agent would have said 'no chance'.

If we want to follow the 'Brighton model' then this is exactly the type of move we should be making. We need to be selling the move as 'come here, get some experience, then when a top 4 club comes sniffing in a couple of years you can move on if you feel you have outgrown the club'.

I'm not holding my breath by any means, but Fofana, Sangare and the kid from Benfica are 3 top class defensive midfielders. If we can walk away with any of these three I will be chuffed.

I just don't buy this at all.

It's like BJ and Brentford. There's no chance he got a new super agent so he could go to Brentford and not be on serious money. They don't pay top dollar for fees or wages.

So, if BJs agents were affirmative in encouraging bids, maybe they were just getting the signal out there to generate interest from the bigger suitors.

So perhaps, it's the same for Forfana. Everyone reads the player is up for a move, but probably not to Forest.

A lot of players just want to get their foot through the PL door which gives us a chance with players like this.

Of course, they want to leave as soon as top 6 club comes knocking but as long as you’ve moved forward everyone wins.

Maybe she likes a bit of rough?
Edit: just realised this line is about 4 hours too late😔😂

Whether we get him or not, it's clear the primary of our budget is going to go on this position.

And it will only take one of this bracket of player to say yes. I am sure those moaning we are wasting our time will be complaining when we don't improve on what we have already got if we lowered the quality of our targets.

From my usual position of ‘glass half empty’ I‘m assuming we’re not interested in Adams - hence we’ve got bigger fish to fry & are strangely confident of landing one.

Yep, clearly got multiple hooks in the water for one type of fish (CDM) and it's seemingly not small fry. If/when we land one, the others will be removed and presumably we continue to look at other positions.

What I don't know is whether we can do a 40-million level transfer without offloading Brennan?

I’d hoped so - but now reluctantly expecting the inevitable.
More & more clubs seemingly interested - fee surely on the rise.
