Summer 2022 Transfer Thread

[Brazilian Villain]

Yes, like Maradona joining Napoli.

Hopefully without the cocaine and hookers, I've never been to Nottingham though.

I have, and I wouldn't be so sure about your assumption. Had some great nights out there in the past.

Bizarre use of the word 'hopefully' here.

I reckon if he more or less single-handedly wins Forest two league titles, a cup and a European trophy they won't begrudge him all the Peruvian Dancing Sugar and ladies of dubious repute he can get his hands on.

Lots of reports (from admittedly questionable sources) today that we're in for Ibrahim Sangare for £20m.

This would make my balls tingle.

[cdbearsfan]

What does he do?

[brontebilly]

Lingard has completed a one year deal worth to 200,000 per week at Nottingham Forest

Absolute madness

8 assists in 7 seasons at Old Trafford? His agent must be a superstar. Clearly going to Forest for footballing reasons though.

All i really know about Nottingham = "OMG! THERE'S THREE WOMEN TO EVERY MAN!!!11!!" which was the score in the 1980s

[cdbearsfan]

Four to one was the claim when I used to head up there every now and then in the nineties.

[Brazilian Villain]

6 to 1 was the claim I heard in the 90s from afar in Dublin.

Sounds like Lee's the guide to have should we wish to check the current true ratio.

[eamonn]

Maybe the extra female populus explains the fact that it has the only Hooters in the UK.

[edgysatsuma89]

What does he do?

DM for PSV. Makes your balls tingle as well apparently, like one of those shampoos.

Lots of reports (from admittedly questionable sources) today that we're in for Ibrahim Sangare for £20m.

This would be fantastic, he'd give us something completely different in there and allow us to play a DM and 2 CMs or go toa  double pivot with a more attacking player in front. We'd even be able to adjust it on the fly during games to take advantage of space, etc.

What does he do?

I think he often gets listed as a DM but from what I can see he's a DM in the same way that people like Vieria and Yaya Toure were, capable of winning the ball back but then driving up the field with it. Not as cultured as either of them and probably needs to add more goals to his game but young enough to improve and would add a lot of extra height into our squad, which we really need.

[Smithy]

Wouldn’t have been a terrible signing for us and an excellent one for Forest………at about 1/3 of that salary!
At that it’s a big, big gamble. Ok it’s only a year but how much of their resources is that taking up for the year?

£10.4m.

Good deal IMAO.

Indeed, that’s less than a season of Ross Barkley cost us, so in premier league terms, it’s not huge amounts.  If they stay up, and he’s contributed to that, it’ll be the signing of the season.
