An almighty thread justifying the transfer activity at NFFC for the benefit of pundits and rival fans that know f* all about #NFFC.
And there’s a lot of you.

1) Club talisman and recent top scorer Lewis Grabban out of contract and 34.
Forest buy the 6th top scorer in Bundesliga

2) Spurs want former loanee Djed Spence. Forest rightly switch attention to Neco Williams.
Partners with Brennan Johnson for Wales. No brainer.

3) Moussa Niakhate is a former French U21 and the captain of Mainz. Their fans loved him. Forest need another CB after Figueiredo contract expires.
Cost £70m less than Harry Maguire.

4.Brice Samba falls out with the club and replaced by England international Dean Henderson.
Hard to argue - goalkeepers are kind of essential.

5. Forest have no cover at RB or right CB.
Giulian Biancone can cover both and is highly regarded in France.
At 22 will only get better

6. LB Max Lowe loan ends. Reserve LB Gaeten Bong contract expires.
We sign Omar Richards from Bayern Munich. Picks up serious injury in pre-season.

7/8. Double deal with Huddersfield for 2 of last seasons best players in the Championship.

9. Forest loan backup keeper Ethan Horvath to Luton for much needed game time.
Replaced with 100+ caps experienced Wayne Hennessy

10. Jesse Lingard
Needs to introduction or justification whatsoever.

11. Due to loaning Henderson from Man United we’re unable to bring back James Garner to the midfield.
Forest sign Belgium’s Orel Mangala

12. One for the future. 19 year old Costa Rican international Brandon Aguilera signed and immediately loaned out for a year.

To be confirmed…
13/14 Cheick Kouyate and Remo Freuler - bringing experience
15. Emmanuel Dennis - bringing the razzle dazzle
16. Neal Maupay - bringing competition up front

12 players have left.
But nobody mentions that.

We’ve waited 23 years, so apologies that we’ve rattled a few cages by having a go.
So to those that no NOTHING about my club. Shut Up.
