Just heard now that Jara reyes has agreed personal terms on a deal to return to the city ground! Building from the back, like it!

I give you credit for the spin. You can admit that it's more interesting on here now that Derby have spent their entire transfer budget on a Scottish bloke nobody has ever heard of.

That was just before BD joined and wasn't smart. I'm surprised BD didn't like him though as he seems like the type he would. No frills, hard working, McKenna-lite.
I'm sure someone will take him off our hands if he isn't in our plans though unlike players like Greening, Derbyshire, etc. Not sure what will happen with Miller, I keep forgetting he's our player but don't see him getting much of a game especially now we have Henderson.

I know what you mean Lloyd but McKenna>Gillett by a long way.

Gillett is the forgotten man. He is firmly behind Guedioura in the queue for the holdig midfielder role at the moment but pre-season can be funny. I reckon he might still have a future at Forest.
I'm sure SOD would have gone for him in a heartbeat at Brizzle had they not been relegated.

Gillett was doing OK under SOD, and a lot of Forest fans were saying he was our best player for a while, so I'm surprised there's a lot of criticism of him when he is a competent back up for Guedioura. I can see Billy Davies using him in the future.

Also, I don't think Sharp is out of the picture, and if Southampton don't want him then I'll be surprised if he ISN'T a Forest player next season.

FAF, Gillett can do a job no doubt. Can be quite tidy and wants the ball from the CBs. When we played well at the beginning of the season he linked the team together well. But he is too weak in the tackle for a DM that has no creativity. Pep can be a playmaker from DM but Gillett is too one dimensional for me.

There's a good article about how teams found that by pressing high and tucking the fullbacks in were hadn't got the width to create. Guedioura could play when he gets pressured, Gillett wasn't good enough.
