Surely another one to clash with Bruno?
Morgan Gibbs-White
- Thread starter Silverman
- Start date
A name like that, he be
The “vast majority” is over egging the pudding a tad? A few yes. I was referring to United fans comments on players in general, not just MGW. It seems to be a recurring theme that may have been valid 10 years ago but you are where you are.
The reality is he’s settled in Nottingham, is the man the team is built around and will probably be made club captain next season. I presume his ambition is a senior England cap, which he’s more likely to achieve as the main man at Forest then Bruno’s understudy.
So in a thread specifically about Gibbs-White you are commenting on United fans underestimating players in general, while simultaneously justifying why Gibbs-White shouldn’t or wouldn’t move to United. Yeah, makes perfect sense.
You're talking out of your arse. Do you have any idea the prices that get quoted every time United are interested in a player? If we started buying every man and his dog from every team that beats us we'd be even worse run than we currently are.
Might be a difficult concept to understand for Forest fans but most clubs can't buy 30 new players every summer.
Just the usual opposition fan talking utter garbage on here after having their moment in the sun. A couple of years ago Sheffield and Leicester fans were on here acting like they were our rivals. Exactly a month ago Newcastle fans were very vocal in a similar fashion. None of them are anywhere to be seen once they're busted flush. This dude will be no different.
He has the exact same style as Bruno IMO. Eze keeps the ball better than both.
You'd need two defensive Declan Rice's to carry that.
According to some on here, that's McTominay.
Good throwback to the Leicester boys, actually. They’ve all scurried away like ratsA few of our players could do with some of his passion.
Good player and actually puts a shift in. Never really see him jogging about half arsed.
His versatility could allow him to play on the wing and striker and then move to AM after Bruno.
He’s a number 10, Cooper tried fitting him in on the right of a 433 and he wasn’t very good. He’s best in the middle with licence to go where he needs to to create.
Haha very true.
Why would that kind of player would want to join us currently?
Who?
Reminds me of Lingard?
With what’s being reported in the news you may have to move players on due to FFP
I’m sure he’d have some suitors.
Yeah I can see this, except Gibbs-White seems a lot stronger and more aggressive but in terms of play style I’d agree.
Not near good enough if your ambitions are top 4.
He's like a Musiala lite, but we have Bruno so it's a non starter
Glastons influence seen on the cafe years on. Guy set the benchmark and many have followed suit.
In that case we could retrain Bebe to centre mid and go with a 3 of:
Rice - Rice - Bebe
Did you read the article? A journo was asked which clubs might be in close to FFP and Forests name came up. The issue is whether the Johnson sale is registered in the previous period or this financial year, as the sale occurred late in the window. It’s a technicality but the sale of Johnson means we don’t have to sell any other players. If we get charged then so be it, it’s all a farce
Shhh - apparently this kind of comment never happens on CAF according to some!
My point was more around the style of player rather than the name. Modern football has moved away from the 'Trequarista' we have in Bruno.
Our midfield doesn't just need a rebuild, it needs a rethink. The 4231 / 4141 or whatever we're playing doesn't work in the modern game.
I did read it and the source is from renowned expert Kieran Maguire. The numbers don’t really add up from what I can see so definitely suspect you are on the cusp of getting in to bother. Certainly sailing close to the wind regardless of the Johnson fee.
I've seen it - one guy stating that McTominay is worth at least what Rice is worth - it's quite funny.
The numbers are fine, FFP compliance was contingent on the Johnson sale. An Athletic article has come out reporting that Forest were in touch with authorities through out the summer, making the case that the £30 mil bid by Brentford could be bettered later in the window, as was the case. If you can show me how exactly you think the numbers don’t add up?
A lot of the comments being made about Gibbs White in this thread were said about someone like Maddison a few years ago.
Really like him but don't see how he fits in at all with Mount and Bruno in the team and the price Forest would command for him.

I see what you did there
Sorry I thought you’d read the articles and piece from Maguire?
Cry more you wanker.
Silly thing to post MGW
He should take a look at his own set pieces today
United fan? fecking muppet.
He's your typical limited angry man who is only interested in showing up against the big boys.
See also, John McGinn.

He epitomises the term 'shithouse cnut'
He's shit and fecking annoying to boot. Don't see why anyone rates him.
