The morning rag says Leicester are trying to complete an £8m deal for David Mcgoldrick?? Surely he's not worth that?

{Ed034's Note - hahaha who says money doesn't go to your head

Does this make assombalonga worth £40m to Leicester then?


2.) 30 Aug 2014
Wow, puts Assombologa, Antonio, Fryatt and Burke, for 7m combined into perspective


3.) 30 Aug 2014
It makes newcastle's joint signing the deal of the century!
An absolute steal! I wonder if Alan Pardew was wearing a mask whilst holding a sawn off shot gun during the deal negotiations?

{Ed034's Note - would you have done a deal of swapping lascelles and darlow for assombolonga, Antonio and a season long loan for both players where we do not pay any of the wages whole on loan??


4.) 30 Aug 2014
Would make Assombalonga look an absolute snip at £5million ish if McGoldrick is worth £8million after half a decent season at Ipswich!!

{Ed034's Note - that's the way I'm looking at it


5.) 30 Aug 2014
Great comment Ed034.

{Ed034's Note - I think ruddyforest has a great point


6.) 30 Aug 2014
Ed, I agree good bit of biz for us!
I just think it puts their deal up there as a bargain, compared to the stupid money flying around at the moment.


7.) 30 Aug 2014
Well said ed. some people just see that we sold them for nothing but when you look at it we have Britt and Antonio who have scored us about 8 goals already this season. no brained for me. we didn't spend anything over what we sold for so ffp will be happy.

Just woke up this morning, went onto ssn morning paper talk and seen this and my first thought was to post it on here, looks like I was beaten to it lol, still 8m for mcgoaldrought please, makes assombalonga look like a bargain!
Going for a 3-1 forest win today.
COYR!

As a loan signing, Hunt. One of the best right backs at Forest for a long time. As far a perm signings. It would be a toss up between Burke and Macienne. It's early days though!


10.) 30 Aug 2014
What a joke, the same player that couldn't hit a barn door for us standing right in front of it, come on! Hahahaha!


11.) 30 Aug 2014
£8m for a striker who scored more than every single one of our players last year despite missing half a season lols. He's far better than the treatment some of our fans gave him


12.) 30 Aug 2014
Seems like a really strange rumour. McGoldrick has had one good season in the Championship, isn't that young, and just coming back from injuries. Weird.

Surely getting Troy Deeney or Jordan Rhodes would be better, even if they'd cost over 10 million.


13.) 30 Aug 2014
This McGoldrick fee is high-level crazy talk. I'll put my hands up to having had doubts about the Assombalonga deal but it's clear on the evidence so far that Stuart Pearce is more astute in his dealings (and his ability to build a cohesive team) than I'd dared hope.


14.) 30 Aug 2014
Mcormack 11m one good season

so about right that Mcgoldrick is 8m after half a good one!

Worlds gone maaad

Any news on the jack hobbs injury today?


16.) 31 Aug 2014
If Mcgoldrick is worth £8m I'm getting my boots out from the back of the shed and making a comeback!


17.) 31 Aug 2014
Had to check the Calender seeing this! I thought it was April the 1st :-)


18.) 31 Aug 2014
There is a lot more to D.M. Game than just scoring goals, good control , passing, clever , just wasn't,t used right at Forest and not played consistently like many of the strikers who we paid good money for over the last 15 years, who have often gone to play well elsewhere,hopefully SP is going to put this right by not swapping and changing the front two all the time and give them time to gel together. Mcgoldrick could flourish in the premier.

I doubt he's worth that, besides his failure at Forest he has done very well at the other clubs he's played at, just not a player suited to Forest style. He's a talented player and may flourish at Leicester. Does make Forest transfers this summer look good business though.

Was at school with David Mcgoldrick and wasn't even the best player in the school although he's kept on improving. Always seemed a nice guy though and still remember vividly playing football with him one saturday and he scored a goal with his backside :)

I wonder if Forest get a cut of the transfer fee.8m what a joke!
