As unconvinced as we all are about Neil Taylor being good enough at LB, I'm not sure if fat Rafa is the answer.
I've never seen Rafa at LB, but I suspect he's a little old.

Martin O'Neill has signed Sammy Ameobi. I'm pretty sure that that was the last piece of the Armageddon jigsaw.

His modern day Marlon Harewood signing. A myriad of options and like us they end up with not even a has been, but a never was. I can't imagine too many Forest fans are pegging it down to the shop to get Ameobi on their kits.

A nightclub, most likely.

I like the notion of a now 97 year old Collins scything it about from left back. Hutton right wing. And Richard Dunne, with a fag in one hand and scotch in the other, as the new Bibs.

Benitez off then



Be a good time to purchase any decent players they have. If they have any!

Expect Gary Monk to buy Che Adams for them and maybe Gary Gardner

I believe that both Gary and Craig were die hard Toon fans in their youth.

Should he stay or should he go...

Jonathan Kodjia could be putting himself in the shop window with this performance which saw him playing as a lone striker. It was interesting to note that Wilfried Zaha started on the bench and came on in the 2nd half.

On his performance in this match he is worth £10 million on his performance for us last season he is worth £6 million.

So the question is would you sell Jonathan and if yes how much would you take for him?



Aston Villa's Jonathan Kodjia scored the only goal of the game as Ivory Coast edged past South Africa in their opening Group D encounter.

He's 29 and in the last year of his contract.  Flog him for whatever we can get, within reason

I would happily take 6m for Kodjia tbh. If we hadn't gone up and needed a fire sale, he'd have gone for less.

Definitely. The player he is now could have been an exciting PL player ten years ago, but the game's not the same. If I'm brutally honest, in my opinion, if he stays and plays for us next season, it'd be a sign that we might be in a spot of bother.

Sell but we need at least two strikers in with Hogan also likely to leave, an unproven Brazilian and Davies best suited to a year on-loan in the Ch'ship.

I'd keep him if he's happy to be cover from the bench and the odd start, we have loads of work to do this summer so anyone who stands a chance of being a decent squad option in the premier league should be kept if we can. It means losing out on a few million quid, which is a shame, but we'd never get worthwhile replacement with the money we get for him so that's a false economy.

Sell.  Since injury he's been average in the Championship and will likely be even less effective in the Premier League.
