    No thanks.

    Are the floodlights on anyone?

    12 goals in 19 games for Fenerbahce. Super Lig isn't Premier League standard, but it's not nothing. He's generally scored goals wherever he's been.

    On the downside, he's 29 and doesn't seem to ever settle anywhere. And Fenerbahce want 10-12M for him. 4M is a punt, 10-12M is an investment.

    I forgot he'd gone there.

    Yeah ... I can live with a £4m punt if the wages aren't bonkers.

    Callum HO seems imminent according to a sky bod. Assume that means Brennan off.

    Why? Seems to me like Elanga and CHO would be replacing Lingard and Ayew, never mind Dennis who will inevitably depart. It's not like we need to sell Brennan to finance CHO, everyone seems to be all concerned about FFP but I doubt we're really at much risk at the beginning of year 2 of a 3 year assessment.

    I wonder how much of this is about FFP, and how much is looking forward and assuming we might be at risk of losing MGW and Danilo this time next year, so trying to stagger inevitable departures.

    Ask any Chelsea fan what they think of him, he's to them what Bob Rosario / Eugene Dadi is to us.

    I'm inclined to agree. Doesn't pass the sniff test.

    I'm not. It happened in 2019, if it was a legitimate concern he wouldn't have been playing for the national team in the World Cup. My bet is that Forest have already received off the record assurances from people who are in a position to know that this isn't going to become a thing.

    Quite possibly. But I'm not sure that relying on the quality of the Argentina national team vetting process is the wisest decision.

    €12m plus 3m add ons.

    Another European club tried to hijack but still coming to us.

    Corinthians have a sell on clause.

    Here we fucking go indeed.
