msloan78 Posted August 18, 2022 Report Share Posted August 18, 2022 Forest have agreed a £42.5m fee with Wolves!!! Personally, I feel like the line has just moved on any potential fee for Gordon, and Forest have had their pants pulled down over this deal.

I was going to say it makes a possible fee of £50m for Gordon look like we're undervaluing him. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted August 18, 2022 Report Share Posted August 18, 2022 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62594961 £25m plus £17m add ons. Not quite as ridiculous as it seems. Makes me wonder if Chelsea's bid is structured that way which is why we dismissed it so quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would make sense for Chelsea with a player as unproven as Gordon. Obviously we would prefer more guaranteed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if they go down, £25m plus say £5m for apps isn't that ridiculous in this day and age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon’s would probably be based around appearances and he might not get that many in the league this year if he made the move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest are giving themselves every opportunity to stay up with all the players they are bring in - but a lot of bodies to try and keep happy and get used to playing with each other. I have read that Watford dressing room where openly celebrating Dennis moving on as he apparently caused a few problems (also read this about a month ago before this story). https://www.pulse.ng/sports/football/super-eagles/watford-players-celebrate-pound20m-departure-of-super-eagles-emmanuel-dennis/fvzlw6z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're onto 16 now, who don't know the club, it's philosophy or its principles and will be pushing the majority of the players who earned promotion out of what they earned. I expect a lot of discontent and for them to collapse before Christmas. Wiggytop and Shukes 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky really wouldn’t let the truth get in the way of a good story. Can’t wait to see the headline “Everton lose £40m on Dele transfer” after he moves to Turkey.

Aidan Posted August 19, 2022 Report Share Posted August 19, 2022 That's a fucking mental fee. I know it's different circumstances but Sterling went for £47 and Haaland £51m. Wolves have had an absolute belter there. Although, is this a Richarlison or Dele esc transfer where in reality Forrest paid maybe £15m and will probably never end up paying the full £42m?

Fosse Captain Posted August 19, 2022 Report Share Posted August 19, 2022 Crazy money! £40 million for a player (instalments or not) who couldn’t get a game in PL so was loaned to EFL last season.

Palfy Posted August 19, 2022 Report Share Posted August 19, 2022 Is he a prick or are we that much of a fuck up in footballing circles that Forest are deemed a better prospect than us. Happy Friday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
