Johnmfc81 902 Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 I think Payero has a good technical ability, and might thrive in a league like Serie A or something. I don't think he was used to the lack of time on the ball good players get in this league. Hopefully we treat this season as his bedding in season and with a full preseason behind him he comes back stronger and fitter, and we see what he's really like next season 🤞 Link to post Share on other sites

NW said a contact of his france recommended JLS and he ran it past Scott to see if he knew him and had any views of him. Scott gave his approval but I imagine that was on basis it was late in the window and we either got JLS or nobody. Insofar as Onel is concerned I am sure Scott played a part given his Norwich links. However Onel was not a bad player for us and in a system that plays wingers I think he would have certainly contributed. Wilder used Onel as a striker in his system and he did a lot better as a striker than Connolly has.  It was other way around Scott had seen JLS play several times and brought him to Warnock who then ran it past his contact/mate. I don’t think Onel fit once Wilder came in and looks like he was on a fair wedge. Interesting to see Onel has been playing as LWB for Brum. Link to post Share on other sites

Not all obviously just options for each, and I know all aren’t really realistic which is why I say in an ideal world. GK- Johnstone(free) Henderson, Bazunu(loans) Bialkowski LCB - Ben Davies (loan) Simpson, Mee(free) CB (cover) - Goldson(free) LWB - Toffollo(free) Lewis RWB (cover) Nyambe, Clyne CDM - Wanyama, Hourihane, Bielik CM ) - Wilshere, swift, powell ST - Vydra, gyokeres, obafemi, Semenyo  There is absolutely no chance Wilshere can play Championship football on a regualr basis. I'm watching him every week as he is playing for my home team, and while he is still very good with the ball I'd be surprised if he ends up in a league with a higher tempo. He can't run much and he's not particularly effective anymore. He'd be murdered in our midfield that requires a lot of running and involvement. It's not enough to just be good in the centre circle.

Hendrie_7 1,068 Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Has anyone mentioned Kane Wilson from Forest Green as RWB competition?  22, out of contract in the summer and 3 goals and 14 assists in 46 games. I'd love Joe Rothwell from Blackburn as well, but I think he's probably going to Bournemouth. Link to post Share on other sites

TLF10 4,440 Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Lewis Grabban unlikely to be offered a new deal at Forest. He is 34 yrs old but could he be a shrewd signing for free as a 3rd or 4th choice striker?  He would be our clubs top scorer if he was here now. He has 12 goals this season despite missing 3 months of the season. Link to post Share on other sites

TLF10 4,440 Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Wilder in his presser conference talking about the need to have some leaders in the dressing room. Name checked likes of Sol, Peltier and Taylor but hinted he wants experience in the first 11 so I think them 3 could be released. Definitely the latter 2 Link to post Share on other sites
GrimsbyBoro 1,959 Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Mallik Wilks keeps being linked with us in the Hull press. We apparently tried to get him in January. A three goal striker - we can but dream. Link to post Share on other sites

He's played there recently for Hull, granted, but he's been used primarily as a winger over his career. 50 career games LW, 75 RW, 31 CF. Link to post Share on other sites
