Ogbeche173 152 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 22 minutes ago, Bruce said: This feels remarkably like his agent at work. I don't think any of these are going to spend 10m on a championship player who can't even play for them this season. I don't think Arsenal even play with wing backs. 10m? With these clubs sniffing around I’d say 20m minimum, is he worth that? Hell no. But they might think he is. Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,639 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 I'd take the £10m as I presume it would also mean we had to recall him, depriving Forest or him whilst filling our coffers. Link to post Share on other sites

Hendrie_7 1,073 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/arsenal-transfer-news-djed-spence-25960627 "Spence would be valued around the £10m mark by Middlesbrough and any deal would have to be done on a loan back basis because he has already played for his parent club this season and could not play for a third different team." That sounds like it'd be a loan back to us as there's no mention of Forest. It's by John Cross as well who's fairly well respected so there might be something in it. Link to post Share on other sites
SouthernSmoggie 4,242 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Spence is English isn't he? Hopefully he gets an U21 call up to bump the price even more... Link to post Share on other sites

He will just run down his deal and leave for nothing so may as well get all we can while we can with some bonuses added in case he does reach the top Link to post Share on other sites

Obii 329 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 From our point of view 10M with or without a sell on is great business. He could end up a success he might not all depends on him but i find it really unlikely he would find that success here especially when Jones appears to be a complete upgrade.

I would bite their hand off for 10m. Link to post Share on other sites

I genuinely believe Spence could play 20 seasons worth of football and he still wouldn’t be able to do once what Jones did for that winner yesterday. I acknowledge he’s playing well at forest, but we’re not missing out on anything with having Izzy. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
SouthernSmoggie 4,242 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 What's really crazy... is that if Tav and Watmore didn't start the season injured, would Jones have made any pre season starts? Come on and assisted in the first game v Fulham? Probably would have been out on loan somewhere - or even sold. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe he would have broken into the first team, but sometimes you have the weird luck where you have injuries and the forced replacement you make turns out like it did.

I will expose my *** in Binns window if he successfully makes it at any three of them At the risk of sounding sexist I do have to make it clear that my opinion is based purely on the avoidance of regurgitating my stomach contents. I hope that you are a 23 year old female supermodel and not a 67 year old bloke who is a retired welder with a prolapsed rectum! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

For what it’s worth I heard that at least one club are interested in buying him now and loaning him back to Forest for the rest of the season. 5 Link to post Share on other sites
