Scott McKenna joined from Aberdeen for £3m rising to £5/6m. That follows Harry Arter joining on a perm from Bournemouth late yesterday.

Our strategy seems to be accumulate, accumulate! Apart from the £14-16m sale of Matty Cash ( :x :cry: ) to scummy Villa, and undisclosed (small?) value sale of Tyler Walker to Coventry,we’ve not sold anyone else (yet) to balance the books and FFP.

Incomings so far for Forest are:
GK - Abdoulaye Diablo (Senegal international apparently). Free as unattached
RB - Cyrus Christie. Season loan from Fulham
LB - Tyler Blackett. Free transfer after he left Reading
CB - Loic Mbe Soh. £5m from PSG
CB - Scott McKenna. £3m-£6m from Aberdeen
DM - Faoud Bachirou. £600k from Malmo
DM - Jack Colback. Free transfer after he left Newcastle
CM - Harry Arter. Undisclosed from Bournemouth
AM - Luke Freeman. Season loan from Sheff Utd.
CF - Miguel Angel Guerrero. Free transfer from Olympiakos
CF - Lyle Taylor. Free transfer after leaving Charlton


A complete new side! After 2 defeats in the league (3 if you include the Carabao cup before season started), no goals scored and now having spent a chunk of Cash’s cash, the pressure is really on Sabri to get a team settled and winning


Scott McKenna is a bomb scare, good luck with that one :lol:

Wimbledon first win of the season. Joint best start to the season.

Amusement under late capitalism is the prolongation of work.

Wimbledon need to be higher but otherwise I don't see any problems.

FFS :lol:

I simply have to try and be positive. There's no other choice at this stage of the season. Once Ibe is ready to start, a few of the key injuries are back and assuming this mystery striker comes in, surely we have to be at least a little bit better!

...right? :cry:

Wednesday looking sharp at the moment, think we might be heading for our first defeat unless we can sort ourselves out.

Any idea what he's like?

We desperately needed a striker.

We desperately needed a striker.

He's been playing in the EFL fixtures this season - my observations are that he's tall, strong, has decent touch for a big lad. Decent dribbler and no slowcoach either. Here's a goal he scored in the EFL:

He isn't Erling Haaland or anything but if he gets game time I reckon he'll be very good in the Championship.

Sounds a good fit for us. We could do with a focal point who the ball will stick to that can bring in the likes of Ayew and Lowe as we attack.
