Orion1871 Forest edging closer to meeting Wolves £40m valuation of Morgan Gibbs White.

Sorry, what !!

That’s an insane valuation


Seemingly crazy.

Forest are going for it. Stay up and it will be ok, go down and, we’ll, they best hope they bounce back quickly


Could have got Spence for £20m

Watford loaned Choudhury - thought he was supposed to be a big thing, hasn't really worked for him

For a brief while, Alfie Mawson was talked of as a potential England player. Now he has joined Wycombe on a free transfer.

Leicester are set to complete their first summer signing. Alex Smithies has just signed contract valid until June 2024, medical already done during the afternoon.

What's going on at Leicester?

Bubble appears to have burst really and they seem to be reverting to their mean after an amazing period of success. Unless they suddenly splash the cash, can see them being an outsider (though still think it is unlikely) for the drop this season.

Shame really, especially as they should have made the top 4 in 19/20 and 20/21.

Seem to have been on a steady decline, I wonder if it can be traced back to the owner passing away in that helicopter crash at the stadium. Possible his family have lost interest since then, would be understandable if so.

Really odd at that club isn't it? Reckon they could be right down there this season. Reckon Rodgers will be on his way before long.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Everton reject a £40m+ bid from Chelsea for Anthony Gordon. Everton say they want £50m.

Are diving skills worth an extra £10M?

He has huge potential but needs to stop the blatant cheating. Very dislikeable player.

Chelsea spending over £100m on Marc Cucurella and Anthony Gordon is a bit mental

Strong rumours Man Utd are progressing talks with Jamie Vardy. I can see mileage in this one for both teams, but he really is not the answer more a quick fix.

Vardy's wife will be all over that. In her eyes, emulating Rooney, and repaying outrageous legal fees they have to clear.

I was joking Paul, but it's the sort of deal United would dish out atm.

Interesting move, he is 34 now, so will be interesting to see if he is anything like the player he was.
