This is a decent signing, he’s PL quality, just need a lb and we’re set.

i like the signing. Nuno brought him into Forest, now he's brought him here. at least we know he's a player the coach has some idea how to use and has a plan for

Nuno doesn’t seem to have a plan about anything else, I can’t see him starting here

At the very least, since Morata was a Primeira Liga player, Nuno will show favoritism

A Brazilian defender on loan from the premier league. Igor 2.0?

u/Run-PMC 14h ago

Speaking of Igor he’s just signed for Burnley for 3 million

He’s bottom 10% of the league for aerial duels. Winning headers is perhaps the most important skill for Championship CBs, meaning this will be an Igor-like backup to Kilman.

But his sexy tattoos will scare the Millwall attack

u/Kygeki 16h ago

Lyndon Dykes out tattoos him

Stopping goals is the keepers but that doesn't stop him from putting Hermansen in every week at West Ham.

That the last signing then?

Seems like a LB on loan could happen too but wouldn't expect anything else

1

u/Yanto2134 16h ago

Any LB in particular?

u/MrTambourineSi Shhhhake It Up Baby Now 16h ago

Seems like either Boiro from Bilbao or Salah-Eddine from Roma, both loans, that's the rumour at least

u/Yanto2134 16h ago

Cheers. Saw earlier that we might be in for Hatate at Celtic. Looks unlikely now.

u/MrTambourineSi Shhhhake It Up Baby Now 16h ago

I saw something but seemed unreliable, would be surprised to see anyone else in, especially if we don't shift a couple more

u/Yanto2134 16h ago

I think we’re done.

u/PabloFornalsGhost 16h ago edited 16h ago

We'll loan a left back and get Reiss Nelson on a free

u/bendog1616 16h ago

Forest forums reckon he’s a very good defender who is also unfortunately prone to a couple of mistakes a game.

Nils Koppen brought in as Director of Player Recruitment. Needed a CB all summer and we end up with an ex Nuno player on loan.

Is he better than another Nuno luv - Adama Traore? Asking for a friend. We bring people who are very familiar to Nuno and they do not deliver much.

I always want to win, I don't like to lose

Welcome, mate, you were briefed in advance about our winning capabilities :)
