January Transfer Targets & Rumors

karanka wanted a substantial amount of money again in january and threw a strop when it was pointed out his results werent good enough to merit more large sums of money,

wanted to buy Darlow, is he really worth spending millions on after chasing Pants all summer then decides after few months needs another keeper. same principle with hefele.

He was told he had to move players on too Jock and whilst he was unhappy with the Sporting Director etc - there were some real issues with the signings he had made and players being frozen out!

Odd that Hefele, who had been told he could leave, then gets a serious injury in AK's last game.

He had previous for walking out at Boro.

I wish he'd stayed, because this season is rapidly turning bad - after so much promise.
 
Lolley is a villa fan of course he will want to go there.

It all fell apart really when we lost Dawson and figuerido as a partnership (either though we conceded 5 v villa). Grabban stopped scoring and lolleys form dropped off too.Everybody was certain grabban was going to break the 20 goal barrier.

I can see us selling lolley , grabban and carvalho in the summer if we can and Strarting all over again with chris Cohen telling us it's the best squad in years. They will probably announce the plans for the ground in the summer along with nostalgic 50 year old videos to keep fans interested. All other clubs seem to push on but forest. Our transfer policy has been abysmal .


A partnership that wouldnt have had a look in if it wasnt for Fox and Hefele being unavailable. Accidentally the best defensive duo we've had
 
I see the POST are now reporting that Soudani is out for the rest of the season (something I posted before AK left) & he is now off to Qatar to see a specialist regarding his knee injury!

I still dont buy half the 'rumours' I smelled things were going bad several times. Not just the interview, but also our guy going to WBA was it? That did seem strange, he as part of this big secure plan and then he wants out. Didn't add up to me,. then some dodgy bloke in his place.

Even early doors I had it on good word about two early Karanka bids for players that didnt get over the line despite player and manager agreeing the deal. Im also not even convinced he wanted the Portuguese players. It was assumed it was the relationship with the Agent that made it happen but Marinakis is the finance guy doing those talks, not Karanka and that Carvahlo deal is stil outrageous, I dont care what potential he has, it was like half our transfer budget on one kid. Apart from Grabban all the other deals were chicken feed in comparison, not covering but a fraction of agent fees on the former deal.. Making out the manager wanted all this funding just doesnt ring true. Take Carvs out of that equation and we are funding a bottom 6 first team.
