City insist 116 mill, so they believe other sources at 130 mill !

What's the point of talking to the media ?

To replace those big hitters, we need to spend.
Since the treble, pulling out and missing our first choices and replacing them with other targets was mostly one of the reasons of our form lately.

Good transfer this, 2-3 more please.

Now we have a manager who won't refuse to sign players we might get a few. Maybe even a full back.

Great signing. Just what we need in the middle of the park.

I know some on here have already wrote him off, but I think he'll be good for us.

I'm long past looking at the price tag, the club have generally done a good job of determining value.

Even Grealish, while most outside the club would tend to disagree on value, was instrumental in 2 years' success - and I suspect will feature next season and may get a new lease of life under a new manager.

We did well with the transfers in January all things considered, got Guehi for a steal, so on the whole these deals will likely balance themselves out.

I like him, and think he will be a very good signing.
The money? Is any of them worth it, not really.

Considering he also lost his Ma during this time. Have read a lot of Forest fans posts on the HYS on this story the majority of them raving about him and his character comparisons with Rice going to the Arse. Sound bit of business this well done Hugo.

Rumours his nan is from Manchester and is a blue as well.

Sky had a graph of the most expensive PL signings.

We had 2 in the top 30!!!!

Grealish and Gvardiol

The dippers had 6
Chelsea had 8
Arsenal had 3
The rags had 10
Newcastle had 1

Yet we have ruined football. Love for a pundit, any of the fuckers would do, to call this out

Don’t know much about the bloke, but looking at the posts above all from decent guys it look to me like a good signing, let’s hope how he blends in with the team.

He was dying to come here. There was no other choice.

Good shout, it's nice to hear players wanting to come here. Reminds me of fernandinho paying shakthar £4m out of his own money to force the move. Look at how he turned out.

I hope he turns out to be good, I am one of the more sceptical people TBH. He looks an honest, hard working player, but nothing out of the ordinary. Fingers crossed he proves me wrong and becomes our rock in the centre.

Watching him for England v Croatia and he reminded me of Fernandino

Shame City could not get it down to 115. That really would have cheesed off the Red Cartel.
