Brenan Johnson

he's absolutely rapid - played either on the right or upfront for forest. Not a very technical player, doesn't get on the ball a lot, looks to get in behind rather than coming short. Very good on the counter using his speed, good finisher. works hard off the ball

I think he fits what Ange wants from a striker in a stylistic way but have concerns about how good he ends up being because I'm just not sure the raw quality is there beyond his speed

I really don't see it as all as a winger for us though. Son and Deki are struggling so far because they aren't high level technical dribblers who can get to the byline against a low block. Brennan would have the same issues imo

From what I have seen of him he can’t finish his dinner.

Pacey but looks no where near the finished article.

At 50m I reckon he would be an expensive flop!

Would love to see someone like Toney come in January

If they want 50mln for him, WTF would Brighton want for Mitoma ?

Looks like Doku is going to City for the same kinda money.. shame.. he might have added something a bit different to Spurs

I'd probably be more ok with it if we hadn't been linked to Orban who I am more excited by. If it's who Ange wants then fair enough. He isn't exactly a signing that impresses though. I mean I've not seen a great deal but on the face of it his stats are like Richarlison's.

For £40-50m which is what Forest woukd want. No thank you for me.

Because he's HG I can see the interest but surely there is better out there for that price?

We need a proven finisher.

I don't think we're interested in him as a striker. Ange said we wouldn't be after a Kane replacement. As competition for Kulusevski, homegrown, who will score a few goals and offer something different.. overpriced yeah but if we got him at the same price as Gordon he wouldn't be terrible value.

Could depend on whether it's Ange that wants him or is a "club" signing?

If Ange wants him I'd trust his judgement as he APPEARS like the kinda busy always moving kinda player he likes but I've only seen him a few times myself so no real personal opinion, 50m? With prices as they seem to be that might be the going rate?

Ange was asked if there's 'club' signings going on, he said no

Fair play I'm not a fan of clubs signing players without the manager/coach being on full agreement so hopefully that's true, they live and die with the players so if they choose the right ones all is good

Yeah agreed. Hopefully we learned from the Djed signing.
