If we can’t rely on statistical data, then what do we utilise to ascertain an individual’s impact on a collective? I’m not trying to be argumentative, honestly. If we dismiss evidence, then it becomes a battle of opinions.

Funnily enough, I can actually see where you’re coming from. The stats would be interesting to compare. I know that the win percentage with/without Sheaf last season was literally a fine margin.

Fair enough, if the report was genuine; I’d be interested in the source, though. Ultimately, yes, I agree, and concede that he’s not pertinent anymore. With regards to discussions, and indeed bickering.

Positioned beyond the camera angle, behind the bush, at Ryton. Probably.

Which is probably what his agent etc have been telling him, for obvious reasons. I was replying to Mr Sunshine, who had jumped accounts and forgot to lose the brusque style of WUM’ing, before taking a sentence out of a few paraphrases totally out of context. I had in fact made a post about how...

Sorry, what scouting reports have you been privy to? I will crack on, thanks. 👍🏻

Something to the tune of ‘That’s Amorè’ by Dean Martin. That’s Rudoniiiiii… Some other inventive person can concoct the clever lyrics. It does play into the American/Italian connection, as he said in an interview his family are American Italian. 🇮🇹 🇺🇸

Guess I’m in a minority, but from what I’ve seen of him, he’s destined for the very top. IF he’s managed and coached to his strengths, and adds goals to his overall game. Can’t blame the lad for wanting the PL and a year in Greece, I personally will be keen to see his progress.

Played 27 out of the 30 games in the Serbian league season. Played 4 times in the Champions League. ‘Didn’t play much and faded badly’. Not seeing it myself, sorry. Clearly Forest didn’t either. Or MR and his scouting team. They saw a dynamic, quick, aggressive young midfielder who’s strong...

Addressing why Americans usually make good goalkeeper, it’s probably the prevalence of hand-eye coordination sports they prefer, like you said. Also, Tony Meola was a decent goalie for the States, and he had experience as a goaltender in Ice Hockey.

And Kyle Lightbourne joining him there. 🤣

Would have been the stuff of dreams: Nilsson at RB and Jarni at LB. Europe could have been ours!!! Especially with Jean Guy Wallemme at CB.

Do mean overrated at the time he ‘signed’ for us, or in general? As if we’re talking generally, I’d have to disagree. He did seem somewhat over the hill at the ‘98 World Cup, though; I recall watching at least 2 games he featured in (at least I think I do, it was 26 years ago) - he had nowhere...

Not a chance, thankfully. 🤣 He’s like Makelele lite at the minute.

Well, considering there were several players on that ‘leaked whiteboard’ image, it’s clear that they have faith in their ability to acquire good and unknown players and cultivate them into even better players - then sell them off for a relatively modest fee, a few at a time. Makes sense if...

Could you imagine that, after this last few weeks…I’d crap myself with relief, literally. I keep saying it, but Stamenic is an amazing player, and if we’re still in the running (or if the whole Forest/Olympiakos thing has been a smokescreen) then that’s a real show of intent from MR. It’s...

Still say he’ll end up at Stoke. Somehow.

Ah right, thanks. 👍🏻

*you missed the point of the pun

When is his contract officially up? Sorry, I don’t fancy wading through umpteen pages to find out.
