Transfer Talk & Suggestions

Andrew French said in a tweet to someone that it's not Lewis O'Brien.

 

I wouldn’t read much into that.

 

Random thought. I wonder if the winger is Chris Willock at QPR.

With Helena Costa having a big connection to Benfica, Willock was on the books at Benfica B before joining QPR. Frenchy said the player he knows about has more than 6 months left on his contract, Willock has 6 months left, however QPR have the option of extending it by a year. So wondering if AF is being a little clever in his wording.

I’m clutching at straws probably because I would love Willock to join us, but he wouldn’t be super expensive, Costa would know all about him through her connection with Benfica, and he fits the Manga mold.

 

I'm hearing the midfielder is Lewis McGugan.
Don't shoot the messenger.

 

I've been told the Reverend Charles Dodgson.

 

Jabberwock!

 

Sheffield United Transfer Embargo could make things interesting - if they have to sell off any players

 

They will just sit on their hands until they obtain the riches of the prem in May. No need to add any players this month.

Update on Henrique Araujo from #Besiktas to #WatfordFC. Player due to arrive in UK this evening to complete loan until end of season.

 

From where now? That's quite a dogleg

 

Really? I'd imagine he'd still be too expensive for us right now. It'd still be £10mil+ surely?

Would be a great signing mind (albeit with minor reservations about his recent injury record combined with our medical team).

 

Nicolas Raskin, who I know @reids was big on, looks like he’s joining Rangers from Standard Liege.

 

Wasn't me! Data looked good but never seen him play!

 

Have we been linked with Phil Jones yet this window?

Surely the perfect Hause replacement.

 

No Ben Whiteman for Preston today despite their manager saying he had a fully fit squad to pick from.

 

Fulham want Whiteman apparently.

 

Based on that we need a keeper, centre back, midfielder and a winger.

 

Porteous is decent but would either rather have someone left-footed or someone with a higher ceiling. Koulierakis would be my left-footed choice and would mean we have a more balanced set of CBs. If we’re going with a right footer, I think we should be looking at Brighton’s Van Hecke. Was excellent on loan at Blackburn last season.

 

Ah missed that! Just knew that he’d played zero league minutes until today.

 

Lewis O’Brien wasn’t in the Forest squad yesterday.

 

Jens Petter Hauge is a live enquiry.

 

Spicy! Feel we have unfinished business with Bodo/Glimt forwards! Any indication whether it'd be a loan or a perm?

 

Obviously Sarr may still leave but Martins, Sarr, Hauge and Sema would be incredible wide options to have.

 

Add Hauge, Whiteman/O’Brien and Porteous to Kone, Martins, Ferreira and Araujo and that looks like a cracking window.

 

Don’t be vague
Ask for Hauge.

 

Better than Bayo.

 

He's grown into his face hasn't he William?
Looks much better now than as a younger man.

 

Like fine whine.

 

Having a bit of a stinker in Belgium which is a concern. Have no doubt he'd be still more than capable in the Championship.

 

Liverpool are open to loan and permanent offers for Nat Phillips this month. Would be a natural WTE replacement (upgrade).

 

AL has suggested we’re after another striker, on top of Araujo!!

He’s saying a CB, winger, CM and “possibly another striker” to come in before the window closes.
