Transfer Rumour Marko Stamenic (28 Viewers)

[Evo1883]

Why wouldn't he start on the bench if he was thought as currently not ready?

Wright cost more and was a sub to start.

I didn't say he would always be a sub, just that the scouting reports make it sound like he would need time to adapt

I think given a pre season he'd be more than capable of taking over where eccles currently plays

Honestly can't see why Forest are signing him, I'll be amazed if he plays more than 10 games for them.

he could or he could not

the scouting reports make it clear he isn't the finished player so there would be every chance he takes time to find his feet

he also seems to have tailed off a lot towards the end of the season

I'd be flabbergasted if he came here to start from the bench

Don’t worry. We can have Alan Browne instead.

 

[Cally Fedora]

To be honest it was a big chunk of cash for a recent free transfer merchant.

Wright, Saka,, MvE all start the season not in the first xi

It's not a leap to see that someone who struggles when pressed (as per the kiwi scouting reports) may need time to adapt.

 

[Shannerz]

he's not as good as sheaf is at this moment

How do you know enough about him to make a statement like that?

 

[David O'Day]

I'm not massively sold on him considering what we would need to pay him

I actually think Eccles is a much better player then lots give him credit for, also his work covering when we had both MvE and Saka in the team was great.

They are saying on twitter that he's joining forest then being loaned to olympiacos

Nottingham Forest working on deal for Red Star Belgrade's Stamenic

Nottingham Forest are working on a deal with Red Star Belgrade to sign the New Zealand international midfielder Marko Stamenic. Stamenic, who has 14 international caps, would cost around £4.6million after impressing Forest while helping Red Star, or Crvena zvezda, win the Serbian SuperLiga last...

Looks like it, what a waste

Worked out well for Josh Bowler that

 

[Evo1883]

I mean , olympiacos are a good side .. if your agent tells you its coventry city in the English 2nd tier , or premier league forest with an immediate loan to the europa conference league winners in a great climate .. it's not really a tough choice

 

[David O'Day]

How do you know enough about him to make a statement like that?

because I can read the detailed scouting reports that exist on him

 

[David O'Day]

I guess if you are going to sit on the bench Athens is a nice place to do it

They are...but not much better than Red Star and the Greek league is comparable to the Serbian. Good move for the pocket, not convinced it's a good move otherwise looking at Forest's hefty pile of discarded players since they went up.

The amount of folks in this thread trying to blame this on our owner.

Thank god for those without a petty agenda seeing this what it is-used City to leverage more funds and better wages.

They’ll be plenty more irons in the fire -don’t panic just yet.

Genuinely don't see a single post blaming the owner for this.

It's a good move they shit all over villa , come on mate they'd wallop us

I get the whole league thing but ultimately he will be playing high level european football too

Absolutely...so would Forest. Doesn't change what I said though, Greek league isn't up to much and Forest have a habit of signing players they don't need and letting them stagnate.

Is O'Brien glad he went there, for example?

It's weird how the owner seems to treat Olympiakos as the second class citizens to Forest but has inadvertently made them a better team.

So basically, you're making a definitive statement based on something you've read regarding someone you've never seen.

Ok.

how much is he going to play? Iborra and Fourtunis are getting on a bit but they are better players

This is fair, but says more about Olympiakos than Forest.

They aren't a better team. They won the conference league but over a full season with the squad they have would likely finish below Forest.

Trying to get the best players we can with the money available, we're going to get scooped some times especially by the Prem teams out to hoard players or get around FFP. Fair play to the club for trying

Not fussed, trust the process.
Sometimes you end up with a gem and dodge a bullet because this kinda shit happens.
We are on the up, the stars will align.

Not sure mate , they comfortably beat villa over 2 legs and fenerbache , looked a pretty good side

 

[mark82]

It's a pretty strange move though, other than for the money. Red Star had European football. Why not stay there?

No they wouldn't

they beat a Villa that was running on fumes, don't me wrong I found it piss funny but a less tired Villa beats them easily
