A year on the bench at Forest presumably hasn't done much for his core asset, speed.

Played a lot up to Christmas and then seemed to lose his spot, but I'm not sure it will have hurt him too much.

Some headlines circling about JJ to Newcastle for £30m.

When you look at other fees, that would be very low. £40-45 minimum is his value surely?

The price we’ll likely pay for needing the money by the end of the month.

Yes, but when every other club knows we have to make a sale before 30th June, it puts us in a position where we have to sell a player for significantly less than their true value. Like we did last year with Dougie.

If I step back a bit I’d say JJ was a bit disappointing last year. Fully get the injuries hindered him, but I thought he was ineffective at times. That said I really wouldn’t want to lose him, especially to Newcastle. Does feel like a bit of a cross roads point for him though.

I thought after the Chelsea/PL meeting last week we'd be flogging stuff to ourselves to get round all this?

Guess if he hadn't had those injures it probably would have been. If he weren't our player, I'm not sure I'd want to be risking a big wedge of transfer budget on someone who had spent so much of his career out injured already.

Would raise issues for club-trained squad places for Europe next season.

Yes, this transfer window and all its rumours can already fuck off.

So today is deadline day for the first window, thanks to this glorified FIFA pre-season friendly tournament. Do we have to sell someone today to meet our June PSR obligation? Or does the second window open up in time?

Isn't today just the deadline for players to be registered in time for the silly US thing?

There's nothing stopping us from selling someone tomorrow, it's just that if they go to a team in that tournament then they can't use them.
