    Percy goalkeeper story: want Henderson (obviously) also Sa (didn’t realise he’d played for Oly), because Hendo might not start the season. Horvath and Hennessey both injured as well, so Shelvey is currently only fit senior keeper.

    Brandon Aguilera is doing preseason training camp with Forest. It's like a new signing!

    I'll say again, signing an injured player doesn't sit right with me. He might never play again!

    You would hope there would be clauses around that. Low up front with stage payments after games.

    Is there any suggestion of that or are you just being a mentaler?

    Not likely any normal range injury, even a bad one, will do for a keeper. They don't run around, which is the normal problem with injury. They just wave their arms around.

    That's pretty unfair and reductive. They also scowl, yell and call all 20 outfield players a wide variety of things, none of them good.

    Back and mental. Anything else and they just keep going.

    Are we talking about goalies here, or just describing @tricky in every position?

    Any player could get a terrible, career-ending injury at any moment. Signing one with a known injury doesn't increase the odds of that very much, I wouldn't think.

    Teh rumourmillz have us signing 6 and selling 3 (specifically Freuler, Dennis and Shelvey). Can't see us shifting those and we shouldn't be bringing in 6 more unless they are young enough to not count against the squad.
