If they signed unproven Twine for £4m surely we must be asking for £8/9m plus…

I doubt they have paid that
There’s been mention of a need to sell someone to cover the last few seasons losses. Any idea how much would be needed? If we sold above that value does that free up a little for MR and if so does that explain the rumour he’s fighting his own corner with the owners?

He’s very good and one of our best players, but let’s not go too far.

"O’Hare is not a set-piece taker so when we reduce the sample to chances created from open play, the attacking midfielder tops the charts, according to Opta."

I heard that it wasn't Kompany speaking about him, it was really Boddy in a Kompany costume.

Unfortunately it's a tactic that buying clubs and agents often use to try to force the hand of the selling club.
Think he wants you to take a cue from his posts!

Unless he actually scores some goals this season and his profile raises

The club apparently can't even afford his current one so I doubt it.

This is exactly what I didn't want. From reading all these posts, I was resigned he was off on Saturday, and the deal would of been done by now. I don't want him to go, but it would give Robins time to bring in a replacement before the 31st.
It seems to be dragging out, and we don't want him going next week, days before the opening game. Palmer may not be ready to start at Sunderland (fitness wise) so we'll have a huge hole in our team. Pretty sure Robins will play the box formation, so we need 2 attacking midfielders. Allen can play there, but who else? Waghorn seems to be injured too

Even then it's probably not overly promising.
From memory Olise at Palace was bought for around £8m last summer (I believe he had one year remaining on his deal at the point of sale) and he'd had a fairly strong campaign for Reading and was 19 at the time.
Agree with this. In an ideal world we would have four attacking midfielders if we are going to play the box. Imagine Robins will toggle between the box and one attacking midfielder behind a front two. With that in mind maybe three attacking midfielders would be good. Allen's not good enough to play that role at this level. If O'Hare goes and with Palmer still getting up to speed, I think we need two more bringing in. Would love Anjorin on loan and someone like Sibley or Taylor Richards bought.

Why has the author given how much it is in dollars?
Two bids have been rejected, the first coming in at around £3.5million plus add-ons. The second one was an improvement but still not enough.
Burnley have not given in and the two clubs have held verbal discussions since. There is a belief among all parties a deal can be done, but only if it meets Coventry’s valuation, thought to be above £6million ($7.2m).

Forest are being seriously backed this season, their spending over £100m, now they’re signing Lingard on a free as they can offer more than West Ham!

Funny how you cut the bit where it talks about expected assists and how he over achieved. It's also about quality of chances created. You also skipped the part where they talk about his actual goals to expected goals being half what it should be.

To be fair, the majority would say that he does create enough.
The majority would probably also say that he doesn't score enough. He started to rectify that towards the end of the season and as someone pointed out, if he scored a shed load, he would've gone a long time ago.

He creates enough but also creates a huge amount of free kicks in dangerous areas by winning (if that’s the right word) so many fouls.
We have a great free kick taker from wide in Gus.
We need to take advantage of those aspects.

Considering his agent is pretty blatantly pushing for a move it’s fairly clear that he’s happy to go.

It's crazy. 180k a week is crazy for a team the size of Forest, they are setting themselves up to fail here. Wait till they drop into the Championship with the most outrageous wage bill and go bankrupt.
