According to Fabrizio Romano were are being linked with a loan move for Borussia Dortmund attacking midfielder Gio Reyna.
He's quality!

If Mangala goes in this window I think omabamadele could take Murrilo’s place and I personally would play him in Mangala’s position. He can run with the ball, get further up the pitch and tackle well. Wouldn’t need him to head the ball as much? I would be happy to see Murillo and Sangare bossing the midfield.

Nonsense he's a defender not a midfielder, he's 21 and hasn't got 50 appearances to his name
He's playing in front of two really bad keepers and his defensive partner changes weekly
If he was midfield he wouldn't have the time on the ball as he'd be further forwards and wouldn't be any good, he's a defender end of and that's where Cooper and nuno play him, needs a partner on a regular basis
Enjoy while you can he will be gone soon for mega bucks and he won't be playing in midfield.

24 Jan 2024 13:48:44
Agree Ace it's good to think out of the box maybe when everyone is back and fit.

24 Jan 2024 22:11:22
Not a chance of seeing murillo in midfield trust me.

21 Jan 2024 21:50:16
Napoli offered 30 million for Mangala. Apparently initial 6 month loan with obligation to buy if he plays 50 percent of games and at least 45 mins a game. Also he has agreed personal terms Apparently. If the boys not happy then I'd take that, OK he's played decent at times and has got better but need players to set up and score a few more, personally don't think he'll be missed too much. Need to clear the decks and that's a start, if relegation is a certainty then a big clear out will happen anyway. If not then so many fringe players or players who will never play for us out on loan meed shifting on. If we stay in the prem Nuno needs to make his own mark with some of his own players. First 1 in Sa.

Good shout CIGD.

22 Jan 2024 15:28:15
The trouble with crappy deals like that is that if they decide they don't fancy paying $30M then all they have to do is deliberately just miss the appearance threshold for the "obligation".

So it isn't an obligation to buy.

17 Jan 2024 09:25:19
Rennes have agreed to take Mangala on loan with an obligation to buy for 21.5m is this good business bearing in mind he's been our best midfielder this season?

Agree0 Disagree0

17 Jan 2024 10:05:25
No Munmad it’s not good business at all. It’s never to be a workable policy to sell your better players to accommodate the many mediocre players we have signed ( some of whom have hardly played). Recruitment is a mess. Plus you need a specialist DM player as I’ve posted on here before. I mean, in rugby, you wouldn’t play a scrum half at tighthead prop would you or get Jimmy Anderson to open the batting at cricket?

17 Jan 2024 14:27:40
Tough one to call this as I am a big Mangala fan. One of the first names on the team sheet under Cooper but didn't play in both the Newcastle and Man U wins.

Nuno favouring Yates and Danilo as the x2 holding midfielders and I'm guessing Sangare will be competing for one of the holding midfielders roles after AFCON - He still needs to impress and Mangala is a better DM but we aren't going to sell our 30m signing after 6months are we!?

Danilo for me isn't a DM but Nuno must see something tactically in his role. Yates, Sangare and Danilo fighting for x2 spots so as hard as it is for me to say, I say we take the £25m for Mangala to support with FFP. I really hope he stays though!

Stokey Red. bit of an odd analogy as Mangala plays centre midfield not as a GK!

17 Jan 2024 17:12:02
Stevo mate I guess it was a bit of a clunky analogy ( but thinking about it he might actually be better than Turner and Vlachodimos! Joking of course ??)

18 Jan 2024 11:55:00
haha all good StokeyRed - was just joking too! After last nights performance from Vlachodimos, we definitely need a new GK. he must have been stood in cement for that 2nd goal!

Mangala played steady last night to be fair.

18 Jan 2024 13:34:18
I’m in the other camp to be honest re Mangala. He’s OK but of late he’s been a bit hit and miss. People keep mentioning how good he is, but I just don’t see it.
Last night at Blackpool he was sloppy. Then again, for a period of 30 minutes, EVERYONE was sloppy lol.

22 Jan 2024 15:28:58
Belgium keep picking him because he isn't good? I don't think so.

14 Jan 2024 21:25:35
Paul Taylor of the Athletic says we are to be informed we are in breach of FFP tomorrow. He's not usually wrong. ???.

14 Jan 2024 22:12:34
50 quid fine ?.

15 Jan 2024 12:12:55
Wrist slap, after appeal. ?.

15 Jan 2024 12:23:23
I d add quite a few noughts to that Skegs if I were you mate! And that’s if we are lucky. It’s loss of points that will kill us…….

“The name of the club doesn't matter. Every club should be treated equally under the rules set out.

“But the elephant in the room isn't being addressed. 115 charges, zero action. Why? ”.

16 Jan 2024 09:32:22
There's a cult developing In this fanbase. Some fans am have fallen for the clueless and wreckless owners nonesense about ambition while breaking rules he voted to make last year at the long term expenses of the club. Thankgod for ffp to protect the long term future of clubs from bad ownership. Show some real ambition Instead of being nodding dogs to mariankiss, he sells anyone good buys a team for the money he gets and says that ambition, the ground was announced five years ago nothing, we are a laughing stock under him. Get these out while we're prem and hope for proper owners from USA or suadi.

16 Jan 2024 18:27:39
My nonsense-meter is twitching!

Owners take a calculated risk to stay in the Prem. Get accused of being wreckless when it works. Fans like being in the Prem are called members of a cult.

The solution: Get owners like the ones at Man United (Glazers? ) or Man city (109 charges and run a country where women celebrate being ALLOWED to drive in 2018),

Forstphil, what team do you support?

16 Jan 2024 22:23:12
Forestphil1234 - what a load of tosh!

13 Jan 2024 12:55:06
Rumours doing the mill

Nico Williams loan to Leeds: Completely believable from the Leeds might want him angle. Not played a lot under new boss, but he should improve at age 22.

Mangala to Napoli (loan) : Stupid decision if true. Looks like the new boss might be "falling out" with players (i. e. can't pick everyone EXACTLY LIKE COOPER COULDN'T)

Che Adams to Forest: This one comes up every window. We probably do want him, but that doesn't mean he's coming.

Ngonge: Looks like several teams want him. We do need at least one more winger if we are playing with two proper wide men.

Agree5 Disagree0

13 Jan 2024 14:50:02
Should never be looking at loans of squad players. Sell if we must but both Mangala and Williams cost big money be wasted if not playing at CG.

11 Jan 2024 00:43:16
Nottingham Forest have reportedly joined the race to acquire the signature of Aston Villa-linked midfielder Cyril Ngonge from Hellas Verona.

Agree1 Disagree0

10 Jan 2024 07:54:59
Morgan Gibbs-White to Spurs. Deal worth £60 million, inc. add-ons, plus Djed Spence has been agreed, apparently. No idea why we would want Spence, though. We are already well stocked at right back.

Agree0 Disagree0

10 Jan 2024 09:41:02
Never going to happen mate. Perhaps if we are relegated otherwise not a chance.

10 Jan 2024 20:04:11
what Stokey said, no chance.

11 Jan 2024 12:43:29
Complete Cobblers!

02 Jan 2024 20:11:37
Worrying reports tonight that the Premier League are looking at us over financial fair play. Shame given some of the dross we have paid out for -I know we sold Johnson but it could be a serious matter for us.

Agree2 Disagree0

03 Jan 2024 06:51:49
They may stop us getting anymore players, which is not such a bad thing?.

03 Jan 2024 07:54:37
The Premier League will take Chelsea's and City's points deduction and give it to us and the Toffee's.

03 Jan 2024 09:29:07
Could effect a potential Navas loan?

03 Jan 2024 11:54:34
The PL is looking at everyone, it's the annual check of club accounts and we (and every other club) will find out if we've been good boys or not on 14th January. It's only the press that are targetting Forest as 'most likely', no the PL.

03 Jan 2024 14:08:01
I think we'll probably be OK:-

A few points.

We spent around 85m on wages last season; this excludes any income we received from players going out on loan.

Our liability on amortised transfer fees for last season was around 50m, you can add another 5m on top of that for loan fees.

That comes to around 140m

Our earnings from the PL will be a minimum of 114m

Our earnings from gate receipts will be around 30m, with another couple of million for the cup run.

We should have cleared another 5m from commercial rights and another 2m for additional corporate earnings.

I would guess that our earnings will be at least 150m - that would give a 30m margin of error - 10m plus the 20m we are allowed to lose

The Premier League allows any losses directly caused by the c.v. to be discounted from FFP calculations. Forest have previously said that the adverse impact of c.v. was £16.7million across 2019-20 and 2020-21.

Where we do have a problem is promotion bonuses for the year we went up. We didn't budget for these, so probably went outside the limit that season. Will we be sanctioned for that? If so, I'd say it is unlikely to be a 10 point deduction effectively for getting promoted unexpectedly.

03 Jan 2024 15:10:47
Interesting analysis RC. I've read that our championship losses used up our 'allowance'. £13 million per season and £35 million for first PL season, we overspent by £61 million before promotion.
Crux will be, what have we spent and generated in our first season back?
It would appear we're not allowed any losses, so BJ sale could be crucial. I like Forest in the news but prefer if it was footballing issues.

03 Jan 2024 22:31:21
Brennan Johnson transfer fee was 'pure profit'. Which apparently is quite important when factored into FFP. Not totally sure, though, as I've not really looked into that side of it all.

04 Jan 2024 08:44:55
Accounts for 2022/ 23 ended June, Johnson was sold in September so won't be included in the accounts.

Forest will argue they kept him beyond June to claim an extra £10m+ on his transfer fee.

Think it's going to be tight. Hopefully Big M has a few contacts.

04 Jan 2024 16:48:39
Steve, the big man does have contacts but unfortunately they’re all in Greece mate! ??.

08 Jan 2024 17:07:18
Eric Dier offered to Forest on loan apparently. sounds like rubbish to me!

01 Jan 2024 20:35:13
Another rumour for you lads.
I've heard that we are about to sign Fabio Carvalho from Liverpool. Heard this before they recalled him early from his loan yesterday. We shall see. Also Kaylor Navas might be back between the sticks if true.

Agree3 Disagree0

02 Jan 2024 12:40:38
We've had enough Carvalho to last us a life time Perko ??.

01 Jan 2024 18:53:25
Nottingham Forest have opened talks to re-sign Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Keylor Navas.

Agree2 Disagree0

01 Jan 2024 20:11:28
Yep, "sources have told football insider! "

31 Dec 2023 18:00:16
Another rumour! "Tottenham Hotspur "watched" Nottingham Forest forward Morgan Gibbs-White during the thrilling victory over Manchester United at the City Ground. "

Hope they have £150M down the back of the sofa or they won't get far IMO.

Agree2 Disagree0

01 Jan 2024 11:20:53
It's not long for the vultures start circling when a player starts showing some form. It will depend if MGW wants to sit on the bench or start every week, and if Nottingham Forest wants the money for him?.

28 Dec 2023 10:33:37
Gelson Martins a 28 yr old injury prone Portuguese right winger who hasn't played for Monaco all season!

Wanted by Nuno or a Mendes pick like Gil Dias!

Hopefully the former.

Agree1 Disagree0

28 Dec 2023 11:17:30
I’d be surprised if it was a Nuno pick Munmad. Different coach same old owner interference I think. ??.

28 Dec 2023 12:30:07
Nuno has already said he wants to manage a small squad. If we get this player he will go out on loan and never put on a Forest jersey!.

28 Dec 2023 14:02:56
Although the NEP report does say Nuno was interested in him during his Wolves days? ??.

31 Dec 2023 11:08:50
He doesn't look a good bet to come in and make a difference. Have to hope we can do better in rest of the month.

31 Dec 2023 16:24:31
We never seem to get a decent player from Portugal. Dunno why. Maybe we are jinxed?

01 Jan 2024 11:17:57
Apparently Carvallo from Liverpool was at the man utd game, could be it's because he's mates with Elanga, Liverpool wants guaranteed game time for him and the moment, only two teams showing interest is Southampton and fester!.
