Why though ? Bidwell has pedigree at this level

Didn't look as good as maatsen tho at lwb.

Panzo looks like he can play there but if we bring in maatsen or mcallum I will be over the moon

SleepyGinger · Jul 13, 2022

Couldn’t see him and Doyle playing much in the same back 3. He wouldn’t put one of them on the right and can’t imagine trusting one of them in the middle with Hyam and Fadz about.

Nick · Jul 13, 2022

We have Bidwell.

Experienced LWB in the Championship with a pre-season behind him.

He's historically been good at LWB at this level .. I think he's a fine enough player , fans just decided they didn't like him

rexo87 · Jul 13, 2022

We've now got 3 to cover two positions (RCB and central CB) and 2 to cover the LCB position. Very positive about it. Two young talented players on the left who will need breaks for the side at times. Just an LWB to go and we are good to go until we sell one of the crown jewels!

Agreed, he has thousands of minutes experience at LWB in this league. Just looked on transfermarkt.

People are fawning over JCS because we didn't get him but seem to forget Bidwell.

JCS was better

Bidwells looked OK after a poor start. Though the Swansea fans who described him as “consistently a 6/7 never a 3/4 and never a 9/10” seem to be about right.

SleepyGinger · Jul 13, 2022

The young wing back to cover Bidwell that SBB mentioned and that’s us done you would think? If we don’t lose anyone.

David O'Day · Jul 13, 2022

good signing

a bit of cover for the more defensive midfield positions and we are looking good

As we have found out, thousands of minutes of experience at Championship level do not always mean the player is still at Championship level, or any better than someone who hasn't played a single Championship minute yet.

I don't dislike Bidwell; he's only just really got in the door so next season will be the real one to judge him on.

Johnnythespider · Jul 13, 2022

Happy with this. He could quickly become one of our Heroes

Salter was a centre half

Blind-Faith · Jul 13, 2022

So we now have:

Rose
Hyam
Mcfadz
Panzo
Doyle

Fighting it out for 3 cb positions , which hopefully means we won’t have to see games where we play Dabo/sheaf in that position ( not knocking them, just won’t have to play square pegs in round holes etc )

More than happy with that, we’ve strengthened the squad

JCS also had some shockers.

Although Bidwell was only LCB a couple of times, he had great games there.

Then we’ve got another Giles/McCallum situation which was always weird

Comments on the Sun'lun board are that Doyle was pushed too much too quickly by their manager and he tired after about 30 games. And Panzo hasn't played much so his stamina is suspect. But with both these new lads, we've got adequate cover to rotate the position should one start to drop form.

He means Bidwell not Panzo. Panzo has played 65 mins at this level.

Bid well looks alright. Better at lcb than lwb from what I saw. Prefer someone with more pace. Maatsen in and our whole left side is stacked both wing and cb

Bidwell is a very good left back

did he come into us a bit cold after telling Swansea he wasn't signing a new deal?

After that I guess we need one more CB to cover middle or right spot just in case?

Perhaps one cm altho Eccles prob be the 4th cm

So I guess not much left to be done unless sell walker then we need another striker in maybe

Not a fan of signing cover, I’d rather sign first team and have our existing player as cover. With that in mind it’s probably Fadz, Dabo/Kane, Moore in that order that could be replaced if there’s better out there. Once we’ve got a LWB in. Of course that all changes if we do with a 433, where I’d like to see a pacy wide forward brought in.

Yeah be interesting to see how we line up rest of friendlies

Well I have to say I'm absolutely shocked to fuck by this, tbf I only saw him 2 or 3 times last season, but he was totally fucking shite, as it take the fucking piss shite, so what the fuck are we thinking of bringing him in for a whole season???

I only hope he Has somehow massively improved, or that AV can magically make a silk purse out of a steaming pile of pig shit.

God I hope this post gets bumped a million times and I get proved wrong, but right now I'm seriously not impressed.

You must be thinking of another player, he played one game last season

David O'Day · Jul 13, 2022

Surely if we need someone to cover for Fadz either Rose or Hyam moves over

he played one game on the final day of the season against Hull. What club does the player you’re thinking of play for as Forest got promoted?

JonesBob · Jul 13, 2022

My thoughts too. Good luck to both of the lads but we’ve replaced an experienced Championship CB with two youngsters

JCS was not experienced. Since he left Chelsea he has drifted and not really fit in anywhere until he came to us. I honestly think he has now turned the corner and will go from strength to strength, but then again I thought Walsh would too.

Matt smith · Jul 13, 2022

Forest fans are raving about him

Should be a good signing

We were all crying about a lack of squad depth a few weeks back and now people are disappointed because we have two LCBs
