I know the Brazilian calendar is the most congested in world football (Sao Paulo played 70 games in all competitions last season, and that's with quarter final eliminations in both the Brazilian Cup and the Copa Libertadores) but it is a concern, especially as he's currently long term injured. I know you have mentioned the congested nature of Brazilian football and you are right it's a slight concern, but in the interests of context, he still played 47 games last season in all forms of football. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gordon Bennett 794 Posted July 7, 2022 38 minutes ago, Capt. Pants said: We said that about Tzolis. If we sign someone else in addition then fine, but if he takes time to settle, can't speak the language, can't get fit enough for the rigours of English football etc etc then we may regret it. Tbh I'd rather have Normann back. Normann would be pointless as he's not available often enough. Can understand concerns but this lad is older and more experienced than Tzolis and its the Champ not the Prem, our recruitment has generally been excellent at this level.

Hopefully Byram remains injury free... Looks like the start of new business being done now, which should hopefully stop a lot of the negativity, however signing players who have been crocked for a while probably wont alleviate most negativity amongst supporters. Does anyone know when Hayden arrives in Germany? Or is he still injured or he might even be there. Edited July 7, 2022 by jaberry2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Being prepared to let Mumba move relatively early (right move for him IMO) does raise questions, is Aaron’s staying? as otherwise we need another RB. If we get another RB then if Mumba does well he then has two players still in front of him next season. I wonder whether this signals interest in Aaron’s has cooled and he’s staying.

What Davitt said was that we wouldn't be paying millions for a player unless we sold someone. We haven't sold anyone (Aarons and/or Tzolis) yet but I imagine we expect to. I assume this potential Sara deal is the one Bailey was talking about in The Athletic a few days ago as showing the level of our intent this summer, especially in filling the midfield gaps.

Ken Hairy 3,782 Posted July 7, 2022 I'm actually not bothered if we sign anyone to be honest as watching a few on here and FB go into meltdown at dross like Placheta being moved on and kids out on loan who wouldn't have played much has been quite amusing. If we actually sign just Hayden these people may just explode 😁 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As Neco Williams has just sold for £17m, surely there's hope for Aarons to hold a price around that figure no? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62081212 Forest defo going for it!

They had them at a game and then booked them into a hotel as ‘Norwich city fc guests’ 😬. If Webber is in charge of budget and he is keeping it close then I see this as speculation.
