At this point, surely MGW agent is telling him that the club have gone to war with them and it’s time to stop turning up to training.

If they not only aren’t prepared to honour the contract they signed together but also threatening his agent legally, there’s no conditions left for a MGW to continue working for them.

Marinakis has essentially forced MGW out of the club

Apparently MGW only wants to leave amicably which is why I think Forest will just hold their ground

I really don't see him as the type to go all unprofessional.
 
If we are going in for Wharton we need to get in now and give Palace time to look at new players. No good leaving it till last few days of window to offer 80m-100m when they have no time to find a good replacement. Be another Guehi (we tried) situation from last window.
That would be nice and considerate of us...
But isn't that what we're giving Forest right now (plenty of time to find a replacement) and they've dragged it out like the entrails at a medieval execution... so THAT'S done us a whole lotta good.

...Wharton can bring Eze with him if Forest continue to fuck around!

Fuck em.
 
We have 2 players, considered to be strikers. One doesn't score enough, and the other can't stay fit for long enough.

Look around us, and just PL-thinking, but also with the twin demands of the CL or Europe, and the need is 2 or 3 strikers. We need one more, and 2 if Richarlison leaves..

It's not a strategy to always be playing catch-up, and for me it's hard to understand, even in a period where top class strikers are conspicuous by their absence, that we isn't find someone. The world is quite a big place so I'm told.

We also need one more quality defender, and an additional midfielder even if the Gibbs-White saga resolves in our favour.

The earth is moving.

Excellent point re Solomon.
Of the two Solomon looks more likely to succeed in the PL than Gray - who was pretty awful last year to say the least.

Damn this thread is close to giving me a brain tumor.

So now .. due to excelling in Championship (!) a 26 year old player who has only sniffed the air in the highest division.. is all of a sudden ... more likely to make it in EPL... than 19 yo lad who ALSO excelled in Championship AND has already played lot more on the top level as well (different positions and mostly out of his main position)?!?

HOW? just fcking HOW is that likelier ?!?
 
We still need 3 or 4 players, even if we do eventually sign Gibbs-White.

The distraction should not be an excuse for inertia.. Not acceptable.

Wtf?
3 or 4 after adding 2 high quality players + 1 bit of an hopeful signing?

We need 2 high level players more - DM and one more fullback. Thats it!
We need more QUALITY not QUANTITY as the squad sizes are limited.

We got Kudus and we will be getting Gibbs-White.
We have to look into other joiners/returnees as well - namely Vuskovic, Solomon, Donley, Phillips, Yang, Takai, Phillips, Devine, Gil. Sure - from this list most will not feature next season, but some will. Highest expectations for me personally are on Vuskovic, Donley, Solomon and possibly Takai (don't know much about him).

But of course! At least 4 more!
And then 3 more!
Once those are completed please 4 more!
MOOOREEE!! :D

Whilst I partly agree...we were NEVER going to do all that in one window. Simple as that.

And intertia? How do you know deals aren't being worked on.

Be quiet or get teabagged you little pipsqueak!
