And you base that on the fa cup semi final alone? Being number 2 at Man City means he is rated.

He’s been wobbly for the US national team as well - years of sitting on the bench haven’t served him well. Have to say I was surprised Man City signed him in the first place, as there were even better keepers in MLS than him, but there we go. As you say, just being on Man City’s books has done him the world of good.

TBF he has only signed a 1yr deal, even if his wages were the reported £180,000 per week that’s just over £9M.

How much have Forest spent?

They obviously have no intention of being a yo-yo club.

I believe it’s just over £100M, I remember Fulham doing the same a few years ago but they still got relegated. Forest have signed some quality players though.

Villa spent lots as well, Time will tell if Forest have bought well, likes Spurs it’s integration that is the key.

It is but then again when you've got owners who make money faster than the club loses it they just doesn't seem to be the drive to change anything

Funny really, a lot of clubs in our league gamble their futures on promotion. Their owners will keep using the proceeds of gambling till they get promotion.

Cost United £5m as a 16yo!

Man Utd's Tunisia international Hannibal Mejbri looks set to join a Championship club on loan, with Birmingham, West Brom, Millwall and Middlesbrough all interested in signing the youngster.

I'd sign him up on the strength of his hair alone.

Will be an excellent signing for someone I recon.

Remember Hannibal for when United were losing 4-0 to I think Liverpool. No United players getting near Liverpool and Hannibal goes right through one of them. Thought he had a future at that point

If we were to lose O’Hare he wouldn’t be a bad player to loan in

Wow that’s a great signing for them - so much for other Championship clubs not investing again.

Let's see. Only 1 goal in the last 2 seasons over 29 games! He could easily turn out to be an expensive over the top has been. He has also been a regular feature on the treatment table in that time too so I'm not convinced.

Caveat: Bowler is a class above the rest of the team. If Blackpool really would sell for £2m, he'd be top of my list should one of our big 3 go, if I was MR (no doubt there'd be serious competition for him)

They're struggling to recruit by all accounts.

Recently lost out to Portsmouth for Colby Bishop.
