It would seem that Forest have been many a football agents dream ticket this season - how many players have they signed since getting promoted ? [Tweet Link]

The point of adding two midfielders is depth. Maybe neither will be as useful as Hughes has been recently, but if Doucouré went down with injury, we might easily go down in flames. Neither of these lads is Doucouré, but they add insurance as well as options. Hughes cant pass. That reduces his utility to midfield enforcer at which he is good. I think that is why his role was limited to sub. I hope either of the new recruits can do what Hughes does AND pass.

It seems to me that Hughes will have limited game time and I wonder if the club will offload at some point in the near future or the player himself will want out? Saying that Riedwald is still at the club, which is extraordinary in itself.

I think Pat has preferred Jeff because Hughes is dead slow, and is never going to break lines. As others have said, by the looks of things, the new guys look the best of both. Big, fast, physical, can break the game up and also transition to attack.

Andre Ayew has gone to Forest. Of this there was never really any doubt. I almost lost a couple of lads from my Sunday team to Forest but they felt we had more chance of winning the Redhill and District Sunday cup.

Just took a look at their squad and they now have 38 players on their books and this doesn’t include a load of youth players. I wonder what happens to those who don’t make the playing squad, do they just clean up and make tea and cakes?

Makes you wonder how much Forest are paying these so called footballers to put their careers on hold while they sit on their backsides. Three full squads for training purposes must be interesting. But what self respecting professional is content with being just a sparing partner ? And for those not in the 25 that’s all they are.

Tickled me Yes but he means getting relegated Click bait of course... Edited by PJEagle (12 Feb 2023 1.57pm) Another piece of clickbait, a no doubt very talented Scottish midfielder called Callum Adamson. But he's 17 not 23, and several years from reaching PL potential. He would no doubt be a useful addition to our under 18/squad tho? Edited by PJEagle (24 Feb 2023 9.15am)
