    Djed to me?

    I'd have had those three and Zinkernagels bagels. Still believe he would have done a decent squad job for us.

    Currently on a season long loan at Glimt from Club Brugge where his contract is set to expire in the summer, having netted 6 times in 35 appearances in all competitions since August 2023.

    I didn't look that up or anything, I just have an encyclopedic knowledge of well groomed and finely chistled attacking midfielders plying their trade in obscure tinpot European leagues.

    Scored on debut in the Champs League for Oly then promptly fell out with Corberan and shipped off to Belgium.
    Seemed a consummate pro for us but clearly something else going on because that's not quite the path he'd have hoped. If cheap, he CHDAJFU but I'm not overly upset for us.

    Good fluff piece on a fondly remembered alumnus.

    www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/cd7x52p0lv3o

    In terms of "minutes played x fondly remembered" metrics at Forest, there's few players if any that are higher in my rankings than Kienan.

    Indeed. If he could only have stayed fit, Keinan & Garner were the only loan players I’d have loved to have signed permanently

    Not Djed? You are dead to me.
    But definitely those two. Still the case, too.

    At the time I’d definitely have signed Djed, but by all accounts he’d made it clear that his heart was set on Spurs (which was understandable, as a London boy), so it was never a likely option. Since then he has not exactly pulled up any trees - either at Tottenham or on loan - to the point where you begin to wonder whether his performance with us was the outlier… maybe Warnock had a point.

    Would I swap Ola Aina for Djed? Not in a million years.

    Mangetout, BrettWilliams, Resident_Alien and 1 other user like this.

    He has found his way to Spurs bench this season it seems.

    Though might have as much to do with a need to move him on.

    I have zero recollection of us ever being top of League One during that hellish three-year stint. Apparently we were.

    Pretty sure I was at that game, in the scaffolding stand. Gillingham has to be the largest dump of a town I've been to for football.

    Motion seconded. And I've been to Portsmouth.

    Was this before or after the Hessenthaler rugby tackle game?

    I would imagine after. I think we were still scrapping for our lives in the Championship for that one. Both ultimately losing obviously.

    Although I could be wrong. The mid 00s are an unpleasant blur on a few levels, with Forest merely echoing that.

    'Your choice of homemade pie' is a nice nod...
